Ethics and moral obligations when buying?

62 posts in this topic

If a little old lady approaches you with an Action1 or Detective 27 to sell, are you obliged to tell her what the value of the book is, or do you keep your mouth shut and ask"What are looking to get for this book?" What if she's on social security and the money could go a long way towards her finacial security and you're a younger person with a lot of working life left ahead of you?

 

I'm ammending this to cover a LCS or dealer.

 

Yes you are obligated. This happened to me. I told her the value, gave her a price guide, and made an offer. She appreciated the honesty and sold me the Action 1, and 2 thorugh 23 as well.
