I, too, am a non-member, and have accepted that some members offer special deals to club members only. When I have listed chips, I have chosen to sell to club members without discrimination, and don't plan to exclude them from any sales. I have had good dealings with just about everyone.

I never ship chips before payment is received, but if I receive a check from a club member I will generally send the chips before waiting for it to clear because I know club members have agreed to adhere to the club's code of ethics.

There are times when I think some club members need to be reminded that the Chipboard is open to the public and is not generally a place to discuss intramural club concerns that are best addressed in e-mails to club officers.
