Hi Archie,
I am new to this hobby and just posed my application for membership this evening. A thought concerning the 'use' of the chips in the casin. They produce something special, collectors just to spend their money ( at a very good markup over cost]. They know the collectors are interested in condition so why should they 'use' the chips, lower their collor value and kill the goose that layed the golden egg? Sound like someone should start another anti thread as is or hopefully was going concerning the Colorado establishment.
