What are Your Card Show Dislikes?
Most of us all have them either as a buyer or seller or both. I have been on both sides of the table, as a buyer some things i dont like are, Sellers asking me to make an offer. I have had this happen, and i find it completely unproffesional, i told the guy no thanks and walked away.
Sellers not pricing cards, they may just want you to ask for a price but again i find it unproffesional and i dont waste my time if there is no price.
One thing in particular as a seller that i just can't stand is when you get a guy who every 5 minutes comes up to your table and looks at the same exact things every time, then walks away only to come back 5 minutes later, almost expecting since he keeps coming back that i'll give him a better deal.

As a buyer I agree with you: cards that aren't priced drive me nuts. Imagine walking into Target and not seeing a price on anything.
I would also like to mention that not every guy that comes back every five minutes is expecting a deal. I'm one of those guys that does that, but I'm just doing it because it takes me forever to make a decision.
I haven't been a seller enough times to have anything that bothers me. Sure, some people do stupid things, but that just keeps it interesting.

Not every person is like that of course, but i was directing it to this one guy at a show i set up at, i usually stay at a table a long time if i'm making a decision..lol
or also I love the guy who offers me $1 on something priced at $10

I was mad because I had no cash and no one would accept a personal check in exchange for money. I guess they just didn't trust me even though it's not like it was a fake. So I was basically screwed from being able to buy anything.

No prices means I look but walk away from the table.
Asking me for offers means I say 'No thanks" and walk away.
Sellers who are too pushy. If I am wearing a team's jersey or hat, doesn't mean that I want to buy every card they have of them.
Since I am a low-end collector, what I do like is:
- Cleary priced bins ($1, $2, $0.25, $0.10, whatever).
- Sellers who sell packs of all ranges, not just boxes.
- Friendly and who will chat with you (not just about prices).
- Sellers or accept credit card also.

Well not if you have money in your account like me. But I get what you are saying. Also, how could a seller accept a credit card payment?
