Steve,

I sent you a request on your e-mail but got no reply I would like one of these chips. I was wondering about you wanting 5-$1.00 chips in trade. That would be at least a $15.00 trade value for a $8.50 trade value chip. Do you remember writting the following in a letter......

"Current Chips from an Open Casino: $1 denom. = $2.50-$4.00 Value
Current Chips from an Open Casino: $5 denom. = $7.00-$8.50 Value

And Values go up from there, according to rarity and demand.

The thing to keep in mind is that things are still relative. Yes, you will be trading for chips that may have a value of $3 on up, but your current chips are also worth $3 using this system too. So you can still trade face for face, but this value based system gives you much more flexibility. If someone has a $10 chip that I want and I can trade 3 of my current chips (with a trade value of $3 each) for it, thats fine with me, I still feel like I got a $10 item for only $3 (The amount I paid for my chips at face value). It allows you to trade for chips that you cannot drive to the casino and pick up at the cage".

Do you still feel that 5-$1.00 chips is a FAIR TRADE?
