After reading this post I went down to Commerce last night and was able to get two $5 Snakes, no $25's yet. My friend in the main cage says they did not release all 2000 $5 or 1500 $25 chips. Why, I don't know. I do know that all the dealers and cashiers say they are hard to come by. They're indiviually numbered, people are looking for certain numbers. I'm looking for 888, 1112, 817,1023, or 826. If you have these numbers, I would like to trade and even pay a small premium.

My friend may have a chance to get into the vault to pick up a couple of each for me. I don't know what a couple means, but if its more than two, I will trade off the rest. I can use a Harrahs Reno Snake and Silver Strikes with Chinese New Years symbols. Email me with your traders and request.
