I did this at last year's National. I put stupid prices on my collection cards because the first 20 people to my table asked how much they were (and they never were for sale). I had one guy try to negotiate a high end trade. I had several folks around me when talking with him. He wanted to trade a T216 wags for my T216 Cobb leaning. I had 10k on it as I didn't want to sell it. He never could quite understand I didn't want to trade or sell it but had a price on it. I mean I must have told the guy 5-10 times. I told him 10k cash or check and that is it. He always came back to "why do you have a price on it if it's not for sale?", even after I told him multiple times why. Man was he obstinate. It was sort of funny but not too funny.
