Manners

When they show up at my table, I'll venture an opinion if asked to, because I display a sign soliciting WW2 relics. However, if they just want to show and tell and don't want an opinion, I will normally keep my thoughts to to myself even if I know they have a ringer. As a couple of members have already said, the majority of folks don't want unsolicited bad news. I've had a couple of circumstances where folks showed up with a new purchase that was not what it was advertised to be and I turned out to be the bad guy when I ventured a negative opinion.
