Had a tagsale

And was selling a whole ton of stuff. I was selling some of those coin folders that you put coins into for each date and mint mark. Anyhow, some Indian guy with a moderately heavy accent comes up to me and asks if I have any silver coins that I would like to sell, telling me that he would offer me 10x face for my coins. LoL 10x face? I didn't know if I should laugh or call him a crook. 10X face to me is certainly the very low end of lowballing I would say... He kept insisting that if I had anything at all that he would be interested. I lold and told him no that's OK. Theres an antique shop in town and the guy there was also buying for 10x face. If there are that many selling for 10x face I really have got to start buying!

Should have made a counteroffer to buy all of his silver coin at 12x

I'm going to keep that in mind. A couple of wanna-bee sharpers are hanging around, being a nuisence.
