>Sanders, seeeeeeeee what the LV chip dealer have to go thru for chips?????

I'm certainly not sure why you direct this to me?

My previous comments on the subject of the chip lists were pretty clear I think. they applied to limited releases and I said that Casino's are put in an impossible position in that they either create a list for dealers and shut out the casual collector or they don't reserve chips for dealers and get the dealers upset.

MY SOLUTION : STOP MAKING SMALL RELEASES

So I have no idea why you think I'm anti-dealer.
I buy most of my new releases from George Conrad and some from Andy Hughes. I have no complaints about the service or prices from either of them. And if they aren't able to get me a chip I want (which is not often) I say gee that's life and move on. And if they have to raise their price because of a casino policy, I don't complain, I just decide if I want to pay that price for the particular chip.

In regard to these chips, aren't these being used on the tables?

Why not sit down at a table and buy what you need and then get up and leave?

How much wear can they have this soon after release?
