for sale Reggies Sales Today for sale

Hi Everyone, Merry Christmas, I will post these items today: 5 sets, 10 single items, and a Nevada featured chip, a special CHEAP CHIPS offering and my 10 most wanted chips for this week, and a reminder of the large lot of post cards. Plus I have a reverse auction running currently, to help the Chip Board with expense money.
PS: I will be taking a vacation from posting. The posting will probably resume sometime after Christmas and before the New Year.

Years ago while I was doing “My Page-A-Day” I would publish one of these “Chipper Tips”. I am going to try to include one each Saturday, up date it if I feel it needs it. Hopefully, this will still help a few of us remember to do the right thing when the subject matter is in question and folks if I am wrong PLMK, sincerely…Reggie

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 OVER FIFTEEN 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

Also, available is a considerable amount of chipping supplies. I will list with out the pictures and please know most of this stuff present shipping problems. By that, I mean it will cost as much or more than their value. If you plan on a trip to Florida; more specifically a SW FL trip and would be interested in some these, I will make it worth your while.
