The seller should know what the coins are worth to him/her and should not give up the strategic advantage of placing the first offer out for negotiation. Think of it this way, when you walk up to a dealer's table or go into a shop, do you ask how much a coin is or do you expect to tell the dealer what the coin is worth? If you ask for a price when you are a potential buyer, then when you are the seller you should extend the first offer of price.</p><p> </p><p>The second comment is that in <i>neither </i>case did the potential <i>buyer </i>reject the coins.
