"In fact the dates were put there on the manufacturers insistence. Maybe people should be complaining to the manufacturer of these new chips as it is the same person"

A little late for complaining, they are 20-25 years old. And they have been sold as real chips for the entire 20-25 years. I know they were not meant to be what they became. But the fact remains they did.

I do not think its fair to single out Josh for homeplay chips that have LV, NV on them. 100's of these things have been made over the years and new ones come out every day. I can not imagine anyone on this BB being fooled by his original post.

That said: IMO a fantasy chip of any kind should not say LV, NV on it but it will keep happening and a few threads on this BB will not stop it.
