1. Your already in the building, you might as well see what everyone has to offer and what the prices are.

2. I recently set up at the White Plains show with my friend. Were not really dealers, so to take the time to put prices on every card wouldn't really make sense for us. I was, however on point and greeted anyone who came by the table with a smile and asked if I could help them. One person was interested in my Bradshaw Rookie. I told him to name his price ( it was raw, about Ex-ExMt ) I said his price was fine and he said "wow, I just bought this card in lesser condition for more money." I said, well why not just own two. He agreed and bought the card. I also had lots of dealers stopping over to buy things, so my prices must have been pretty reasonable. Moral of the story here is that I can understand people who don't like a price, want to haggle you down, etc... but how do you know what your missing if you don't even ask?
+1 Well said and I feel that is half the fun sometimes AND I have gotten some incredible deals just by being nice and interacting with the seller. Good points all around. mike
