I don't know why some people are having a hard time understanding the concept of collecting "sets" and take the opportunity to voice their disagreement about "set" collectors even when it doesn't fit.

I thought the problem with this issue was how it was being distributed and controlled by a single person. I haven't been following this topic too closely but I have not seen any "set" collectors complaining about not being able to get these chips.

All of us collect items that we enjoy but some us like a challenge of building a "set" of something as a diversion. As you indicated, you have a few "themes" that you like. I enjoy collecting Halloween chips and Hard Rocks (Looking at starting on the Palms next). To each his own.
