Spot is now $5.20 for a quarter. Always ask them what they want before you put a price out there. His offer may be lower than what you were willing to pay.

I personally always let the seller open the negotiations if at all possible and then haggle if necessary. Why pay 16X face if 10X will buy them?
I bought 4 rolls of silver quarters a few months back when silver was ~$32 for 14.5X face, which was his asking price. Probably could have gotten them a bit cheaper as after the deal was complete he confided in me that he had taken them to "a few places" and the best offer he received was 8X face.
If its a 'kid' make sure they are legal. there has been a horrible spree of kids breaking into people's houses, stealing coin and taking them to the nearest coinstars, and stealing parents/grandparents silver stashes. we have caught so far in the past year 8 groups of kids doing this thing.
