Last Wednesday, I stopped briefly at the Casino Del Sol to see their new chips that they are using for blackjack.

They are using the regular $1 slot machine token and new $5's, $25's and $100's on the blackjack tables. Below is a scan of both sides of the $5. All artwork is the same, except the $25 is green and the $100 is black.

These chips will be used at both properties of the Tribe (Casino Del Sol and Casino of the Sun), however the Sun is not yet set-up for blackjack.

I am trying to find out what the Desert Diamond is doing to compete.

In the meantime, I will supply any and all the chips you want (as available from the casino) under the following conditions: (Having done this last time for the Del Sol to the tune of over $800 in chips, the logistics were a killer!)

So,.....all chips are at face value, plus actual postage, plus insurance (if you want it) PLUS, a $1 chip, per shipment (to cover my packaging and processing efforts). NOTE:!!!! The chip you send must be in "N" or "SU" condition. These condition codes refer to the Club's Official designations as described on the Club web-site and in the most recent edition of the CCTN Be certain to be familiar with those designations, or I will have to reject your request if your offering is sub-standard.

Lastly, I can only get chips as you send money (checks or MO's, no credit cards) as I don't have deep pockets, and please do not ask for trades at this time.

Thank you,

Jim Follis
