Quote:It's funny because I would have taken $70. I stated in the ad that since people like to lowball, i'll start at $90 and can take best offer. The guy didn't even try to talk me down, said he thought $90 was an excellent price. So I ended up throng in a proof bicentennial half and a short set folder that is empty for
Kennedy halves for free. And he then wanted to pay me more for including those. When I buy, I like to talk people down, not up.
Welcome to the way America USED to be everywhere! You made a great gesture to the buyer by throwing in the other coins, but found a buyer who has the same concept of fairness and personal responsibility. You and he both were satisfied in the end by making sure the OTHER person was happy with the deal.
I miss the days when this was the common mindset amongst most people. Wouldn't it be great if our politicians were like this?
