First things first. You have to figure out what you want to collect or at least start off collecting. Do you want to get a current $1 chip from every Las Vegas Casino? Or $5 chips or only casinos East of the Mississippi etc. Then you could go to a great website www.chipguide.com and look at chips from different states etc. Then you could go to nearby casino boats and get a bunch of chips and start to build an inventory of trader chips. Then post messages on this BB asking for trades and tell people what chips you are looking for.

But the first and most important thing to do is join the club. Info can be found at link below.
