CHIP TIPS FOR CHIP COLLECTORS

THOUGHTS ON TRADING


I AM A DAILY READER, A DAILY POSTER & SUPPORTER OF THE CHIPBOARD. I HAVE SEEN ALL SORTS OF APPROACHES TO THE ART OF TRADING CHIPS. HOWEVER, THAT BEING SAID; HERE IS MY OBSERVATION ON WHY PEOPLE ARE NOT AND DO NOT DO MUCH TRADING:
• TRADING REQUIRES MORE THAN AN AVERAGE AMOUNT OF INITIATIVE. AND PLENTY OF FLEXIBILITY WITH YOUR PRICING.
• TRADING REQUIRES A LARGE SELECTION OF ITEMS TO MAKE A TRADE, AND THAT MEANS MORE THAN A 100 COMMONS.
• WHEN YOU APPROACH ANOTHER CHIPPER FOR A TRADE, YOU MUST BE KNOWLEDGEABLE OF WHAT HIS INTERESTS ARE. IT WILL DO YOU NO GOOD TO ASK ANOTHER TRADER TO TRADE FOR ITEMS THEY DO NOT EVEN COLLECT.
• REMEMBER THE USPS IS THE ONLY ONE THAT MAKES OUT ON SMALL TIME TRADES SO IT IS ADVISEABLE TO MAKE AT LEAST A 5-6 CHIP TRADE WHEN MAKING A TRADE.
• TRADING POLICIES OF EACH INDIVIDUAL IS OFTEN QUITE DIFFERENT. I HAVE A POLICY FOR TRADING, AND WILL GLADLY SHARE WITH ALL THAT ASKS.
• CHIP SHOWS ARE ONE OF THE BEST PLACES TO FIND TRADERS AND A TRADE SESSION. • ROUND ROBINS ARE ANOTHER WAY OF TRADING, THOUGH IT DOES NOT APPEAL TO ME.
• I HAVE BEEN TRADING REGULARLY FOR TEN YEARS. I HAVE HAD THOUSANDS OF TRADES OVER THESE TEN YEARS.

*Please know that the single biggest reason some people do not like to trade with any one individual, by far; is because one of them over values his chips. In other words his chips are much more valuable than yours. Just sayin'...reg

A GUEST AUTHOR’s HARVEST STORY

MARINA CLUB MARINA, CA

J Eric Freedner


Three recent MARINA CLUB chips each of which I "discovered" at the little casino in recent years.

The old set of Chipco's were getting more and more banged up, until they were almost white. When I visited the casino a couple of years ago, I saw some "darker" $5 chips in circulation - still obviously used but nicer looking - so I bought some from the Cage. When I went outside into the sunlight, for it was a Saturday afternoon, I was surprised to spot the little "GO" mark in purple above the first "a" in "Marina." So I rushed back into the casino to buy a few more, to the amusement of the cashier. Now, all of these had great wear to the outer edges, as if they had been on the tables at least a year, but nobody had reported the GO instead of CI mark on them.

I returned to the Marina at some point after this visit, maybe 6 months, to discover the new $1 Game-On chips on the tables. Spotted them instantly and was able to buy 20 from the cashier. These have a raised outer ring area by which, I presume, the manufacturer hopes to slow down wear to the inlay area. Instead of a GO letter on the face, these show the four little "incused" micro-engraving which by now we should be getting familiar with.

Then, when I returned yet another time, about a year ago, I saw that the "new" GO $5 chips were being replaced with a newer Game-On $5 chip. This one has both a visible GO after "Club" and the four little incused marks, again with a raised light purple outer ring. On this visit, the cashier was eating a bowl of popcorn at a table and somewhat begrudgingly came into the Cage to sell me a handful, then went back to his 'corn without making a fuss that I planned to walk out with the chips. Because you cannot yell, "Don't leave with my chips!" with a mouth full of popcorn.

I mention all this in case you also lack one or both of the $5 chips in your collection. Let me know, and I can mail out what you want.

Suppose I should go back to the Marina some day (might be in spring) to see what they are up to. Especially since the cashier seems to know me as that Very Strange Man who buys a few chips and leaves.

PERSONAL HARVESTING STORIES

BOOMTOWN CASINO BILOXI, MS

By:RICHARD “REGGIE” GUMMER

THIS HARVEST WAS WHILE I WAS STILL LIVING IN TENNESSEE. NANCY AND I HAD DECIDED ON LONG WEEKEND IN BILOXI-GULFPORT. I HAD HEARD THAT THE SOUTHERN COLLECTORS CLUB WAS MEETING IN GULFPORT AT THE ISLAND VIEW CASINO FOR A TRADING SESSION AND MEETING.
WE HAD RESERVED TWO NIGHTS AT A WHAT TURNED OUT TO BE THE LOCAL FLEA BAG MOTEL ON THE MAIN DRAG INTO GULFPORT JUST OFF THE I-10 INTERSTATE.
AFTER THE MEETING AND TRADE SESSION, NANCY AND I DECIDED TO TAKE A TOUR OF AS MANY OF THE CASINOS WE COULD GET TO; AND HARVEST FROM. ONE OF THESE WOULD BE THE BOOMTOWN CASINO IN BILOXI.
THIS WAS VERY UNFORTUNATE FOR ME BECAUSE OF ALL CASINOS I HAVE HARVESTED, I HAVE NEVER BEEN FLEECED AT THE POKER TABLE SO QUICKLY AND SO SMOOTHLY. THESE GUYS WERE VERY EFFICIENT AT THEIR CRAFT. THE TRIP, THE MEETING-TRADE SESSION WERE EXTREMELY PRODUCTIVE. THE POKER TABLE AT THE BOOMTOWN, TOTALLY NEUTRILIZED THE PLUSES OF THE TRIP. WELL, NOT COMPLETELY, IT WAS JUST A COUPLE OF BILLS LATER (IN LESS THAN 2 HOURS) I WAS PULLING UP STAKES FROM THE NIGHT LIFE OF BILOXI. I HAD HARVESTED ENOUGH AWAY IN MY PANTS POCKETS, FOR MY TRADE INVENTORY AND COLLECTION AND WAS HAPPY WITH THAT PART. I WAS UPSET AT MYSELF FOR STAYING SO LONG AT A BAD POKER TABLE. NANCY CAME BY AND SAID THESE SLOTS ARE STINGY ARE YOU READY? BOY WAS I, SO WE MADE A VERY QUICK DEPARTURE, BACK TO THE MOTEL FROM HELL, FOR A LITTLE SLEEP AND AN EARLY MORNING DEPARTURE BACK TO TENNESSEE.
ONE THING I DID NOT FIND IS THE CHIPCO LIGHT HOUSE, THEY ARE STILL HARD TO FIND.
I DID GET ENOUGH CHIPS FOR MY COLLECTION AND PLENTY OF TRADERS FOR THE FUTURE…REGGIE
