I hear ya Pete... If I bought the mother load and was selling them as home sets the collectors wouldn't pay me $20 for a collector set... most would whine 'why do i have to pay a "premium"' as if $2 per chip was a premium. the answer... they're not buying 500 of them per transaction.

here is another hypothetical for you... chip collecting becomes a top 10 american hobby... a guy has 126,000 dunes chips. he sell 10 chips per day, every day of the year. he gets to take xmas, new years and leap year extra days off. he might unload all his chips in 36 years...lol
