The only one who is a joke is you!! If I am the ONLY reason you quit the club, then you have bigger problems than me. Just to make it clear AGAIN, you NEVER got screwed by me!! You just want to believe that I have ALL the chips in the world, I can't account for all the chips out there, sorry!! And once again, I don't join the club, not because of some code of ethics theory, I just don't see any reason for myself to join. My dad and I were collecting before there even was a club, and when you have family in Las Vegas going back to 1954, there aren't a whole lot any clubs that can help enhance my collection. The chip club is great club for people to get together to build their collections and have fun doing so, it just anything I ever felt like joining. You are actually correct about 1 thing, I do make a lot of money selling chips, and I will make money on the web site as well, but contrary to your belief, I do want to expand the hobby for everybody. Keep calling me a liar or whatever you like, but unfortunately to the contrary, I just passed 10,000 POSITIVES on Ebay with over 2,000 DIFFERENT people, so your accusations aren't well founded outside a VERY FEW who can never be satisfied anyway!! I am a business as well as a collector, I took to heart some chippers concern of overuse of "rare" and other such words on Ebay for the betterment of the new people of the hobby. If I didn't care about the hobby I would not of done that! At any rate, I have let most negative comments about myself go unchallenged, but a few like you are worth the time.
