Normally I love to tell travel and fun stories about casino collecting unfortunately I have been falsely attacked accused and my character has been assassinated by Mr. Kaplan acting chairman of the museum of gaming history and lifetime club member of the CCA.

A few years back Mr. Kaplan visited my downtown store on Las Vegas Blvd. during our convention he had my sales lady assist him opening cases looking at chips making disparaging negative comments on the items I sell ... that they are counterfeit fake etc. and that he report me the club etc. etc. etc. He continued to make false negative comments at the convention to practically everyone who would listen .... my store was next to the pawn stars TV fame we sell mostly the tourist we have novelty chips fantasy chips remake commemorative chips along with high end Casino chips ...

The same items sold at Spinetti‘s, Gamblers general store and other shops here in Las Vegas... I don’t know if Mr. Kaplan is just plain jealous or is Just a power grabbing Man with a big ego....... myself as well as the CCA board of directors has asked Mr. Kaplan to come clean on his libelous statements made against me by him as of this post he has refused and has taken no responsibility for his actions can you imagine if you were accused as a counterfeiter which is a felony how would you feel wouldn’t you want a retraction wouldn’t you want your good name cleared? ....

I hate to muddy the waters on the chipboard, but the truth has to come out ... I have spent many hours and many dollars doing work for the club as most of you know my 20 year presence here in Las Vegas with stores and museums have done much to expose the club to the public and the hobby.... I ask you not to believe everything you hear or have heard in the past ask questions form your own opinion don’t be a sheep being led I rumors ... I have numerous emails previous post and statements from Mr. Kaplan proving his damaging statements that came out of his mouth and then to social media he has cost me a lot of grief and a lot of money with a cloud over my head and it must end now!
