All nice James.

You should really invest in a Chip Guide or Campiglia/Wells bok (or both?) they are very helpful and good reading.

I've scrounged at flea markets around here and never (as in NEVAH) found one casino chip. Best I've done is beg at coin shows, because most of the dealers that say yes, tell me "we have some chips or tokens somewhere. Maybe I can find them. Come back later." As in, they don't really care.

Some poker chips, but of all the antique stores and shops, once a sports card shop in Rockford IL the guy said he had some chips, but guess what, he didn't know where they were right now...

Great hunting, best wishes.
