[QUOTE="Shangas, post: 320983, member: 360"]Being a dealer today is HARD. And I can assure you that the whole "If they want it, they will pay whatever it takes", is complete balderdash. One of my regulars is a physician. You'd think he has money to burn...and he does. But that doesn't mean he pumps out limitless amounts of cash when he buys things from me. All my prices are negotiable when I sell something, because I know that selling antiques is HARD. It's the nature of the business and there's no way to escape it.
