Convention Traders - How to transport/display?

OK, I will admit it is a bit early and that my eagerness shows vbg, but I am curious how some of you other chippers handle your traders at the convention. Please share some comments on your approach as to how you transport them and how you present them for trade to fellow chippers.

  • Do you use books with vinyl/mylar plastic sheets?
  • Do you use Flambeau plastic fishing tackle boxes? (see pic below)
  • Do you use poker chip brief case(s)?
  • Do you use some other transportation/display storage method?
  • Do you sort your chips? If so, by location or by Casino or by other?
  • Do you visibly assign prices/values to the individual traders?
  • Do you separate current chips from obsoletes?
  • Do you separate by denomination?
  • Approximately how many traders do you bring?

I know, lots of questions, but let's hear what you do (please). Let's also hear what you like to see from others when looking at their traders & perhaps what you would prefer to NOT see.

Ahhhhhh...looking forward to August grin!!!

Here is a pic of 2 identical Flambeau fishing tackle boxes (one open, one closed) that Terry Shafer introduced to the board several years back (thanks Terry). In my opinion, they are not the best for trading presentation (although not terrible either), but are fantastic for storage (about 300 chips per tray) and transportation. The original site I got them at (http://www.flambeaustore.com) does not appear to have them any more. I looked around a bit and found this site (http://www.flambeauoutdoors.com/otdrs_fishing/sm_storage/tufftainer_n_spinner.html) that has them (model 4006). There are likely several others sites as well.
