Hello Mr Whalen,

I commend your ability to see the problem that your skills confront us with. We are consumers that only want a fair deal.

The problem that we are faced with is some would take advantage of your skills to profit from less knowledgable collectors. I am sure that you would also would not like this to happen.

If we only were aware of what chips were suspect this would allow us to become informed buyers.

Mr Whalen you also have the right to state you want to mark your creations and repairs or pass on the job. A UV mark would not show except under blacklight and still provide a great looking chip.

I thank you for your time to answer these questions and maintain this dialog on the board.
