Peddling my goods

I am 6',1" weigh 235, am easy going, can strike up a conversation with anyone and get along well with most except persistent bashing barterers. I detest barterers that pester Sellers to take a lower price on an item or items that are clearly already discounted way, way below their' value. At a Gun Show while selling coins and other items, I had one guy pester me to take $100 for two Liberty Seated Dimes that I had priced at $350 for the pair and which were worth more than $550 as a pair. After the initial bartering attempt, he came back 3 more times waving a $100 bill at me and each time, interrupting me while I was talking to another customer. On his 4th visit to my' tables waving the $100 bill, I had had enough and turned my' right side to him so that he could see me unsnap the strap on the sheath for my' big Buck #119 knife and then told him sternly not to come back again. He left quickly and never returned. I hate having to do such a thing but this guy was a royal PITA!
