Boy am I ever confused. Integrity and honesty don't go hand-in-hand with first name only posts and multiple IP's and multiple Yahoo mailboxes. If the first email addy was wrong, how could you have received hate mail?

A major function of this forum is the exchange of information concerning this hobby. When it becomes public knowledge that the entire chip rack of a casino that never obsoleted a chip is "out there" (and from what I understand, it is), the rarity of chips that were issued years ago flies right out the window, and so does their value.

Nobody likes paying hundreds or thousands of dollars for a chip, only to find it be worth a few bucks in any time frame, be it weeks, months or years. That is what you are seeing here "joe".
