I just sold 3 Peace dollars to my local coin store for $33 each today. Seems like a decent price. I think melt is about $36+/-. There are certainly more wasteful things to spend $300 on.

A couple of good ideas

Meet in a public place,
Bring a magnet and a set of scales along with a Loupe
and if possible a friend.

Yes, bring a magnet, a scale, a Loupe, and a friend, and meet at Denny's. That's a good plan.

Shouldn't stick. It would mean it is fake

Do not go to Denny's. Meet them at a bank. Security cameras everywhere.

I guess my question is... based on current prices is this a good deal? well I guess my question is obvious since it is priced below melt :/

When I was young and stupid, I asked a dealer who handled millions of dollars in bullion "what was the price yesterday?"

His answer was "I don't remember, I can't deal at yesterday's price".

We can only deal in the current market. Could PM go down? Yep so could gas, but you still need enough to get to work. I turned down almost 200 silver dollars over a $150 difference a year or so ago. A week later, I got slammed on dollars, and would have upped my buy considerably above the difference.

You make your best decision, and go from there.

Yet another horror story.... meet someone to buy coins.

"Coin collector reports $27K stolen following bogus deal."

that's why you meet near a bank or police station or something of the sort. somewhere with cameras and close protection.
