Folks, through Greg, I have been in touch with Matthias and Victor Wintzer who have access to a substantial number of Cuban chips--in one message they said they had 1,000+ chips and the message below indicates that they have access to others. I have responded to theis message by 1) telling them I would post it with the several BB's, 2) assistem in finding buyers/traders [it is not clear to me what they want to do with the chips] and 3) put them in direct contact with several of you that deal extensively with Cuban chips. I also told them that I would attempt to sell the chips for them at the CC&GTCC show in August, if they desired and if they could not otherwise find a trade or sale more interesting. I charge a 10% commission for any sales for others, all of which I donate to the Club. So I invite you to contact them if interested. I do hope that if somebody does pick up these chips, that he/she will offer them at a fair price to the rest of us. I would be interested in a few of the chips by trade or sale.
