make no profit.. or profit as little as possible.. try to tell that to the corporation or the person that opens up a shop/business.
this is the same debate that peter schiff runs into when he asked the customer of walmart to pay more because the customers wants to look after the worker.
what is wrong with making profit ? i am sure you are working to pay for your life expenses.. and how is your boss to pay your wages ? he have to make profit to pay your wages.. otherwise you will be jobless or you will be replaced with other people who is willing to work for less.
try to tell that to all of the dealer here.. where they put premium on the coins/bar that you buy, how about Pert Mint which have the highest premium, how can you justify that, you can choose not buy Perth mint, and buy some other brand, and that is how you vote with your wallet.
on every transaction that you do .. there is profit on it.. otherwise business will go bankrupt.. and cant pay their expenses.. so what is wrong for me being up front saying that i am protecting my profit.. whether or not there is a transaction it is a different problem.
with ripping people off/excessive profit.. that is a different story.. why dont we all voice our noise to the banks/corporation that have been slaving us for decades and yet we all do nothing about it..
i already stated that.. you are paying less than in retail store (otherwise why go to ebay ?).. and i still make profit.. how much do you think i am profiting from the transaction, excessive ?
obviously for people who complaint.. have no clue on how to run business. dont forget there is a competitor as well and that is keeping everyone in check and not ripping off other people.
life goes on.....

It is a simple matter of pride and honesty.
Some of us can only derive a feeling of pride in ourselves if we deal honestly.
Other people appear to either have no pride, or no decency. These people should be avoided at all costs.
For myself, I gain a sense of self satisfaction and I am very proud of myself, because I am honest in everything I do. I can't imagine going home at the end of the day knowing that I have behaved dishonestly, and ripped people off, and being able to maintain any kind of love for myself.
It appears other don't have such moral fibre, and can somehow feel happy knowing they have collected the maximum profit from someone regardless.
This is everything which is wrong with the world today, and quite honestly it makes me sick. You should be ashamed of yourselves. I will certainly be avoiding doing any deals with dishonest weasels who have shown their despicable hand on this thread. Shame on you.
