I would have to say, in my 40 years is a coin collector this is the crudest and most disrespectful encounter that I have experienced: After years of successfully buying coins at Golden Isles coins, I brought in four high grade coins, in NGC or PCGS holders. The shopkeeper told me he had to send pictures to a remote buyer who would make an offer.
After waiting more than 20 minutes, the buyer’s first offer for the first coin was a bit low and I said ‘that one would be too low.” Thereupon the remote buyer told the shopkeeper he had no interest in discussing the other three coins. “If he won't agree to this price for the first coin, I don't care to discuss the others.”
I told the shopkeeper that his response made no sense whatsoever: I bought each of the coins at different times, for different prices, and I had different sales figures in mind. That was of no interest to the remote buyer.
At that point I left the shop, and concluded that I will not return. The rudeness and utter crassness of such an exchange defies logic. Think of it, on the first coin when you decide that you’d prefer not to sel at the price offered, all three of the other coins are dismissed – no discussion, no nothing, you can leave now.
Sell your coins here at your own risk. Seller beware.
