Extra! Extra! Reggie’s Weekly Note & Chip Tip

Good Day Chippers; Though it was late evening when I posted this notice last Saturday; Please know, with the increased price in gas, I am making a delivery to the post office only 2 times a week. It is 20 miles round trip from my house to the post office.
I have been adding nice chips to my CA Featured Chips and my Nevada Featured chips almost every month. Add in the fact that I have been breaking up the sets, that increases the singles and the pages shown on the CB as well. Reggie

*Quick Note: I will be closing down my hold service in May around the 3rd week, I will be more specific as we get closer to May. I will be vacationing in Montana for two weeks plus, and then head down to Las Vegas for the show. reg

Please visit my Montana chip collection on the Chip Query, to see if you have a chip (traders-pages 1-13) that I can use or any traders of mine you can use.

Regular Line-up

5 Sets and 5 Single chips every day, that I post.
1 Nevada Featured Chip, 2 California Featured Chips
3 Pages of California Chips with a Cheap Chips ever now then when I can find enough strays to put them together.
And on every Saturday another “SPOTLIGHTED SPECIAL FEATURE CHIP(S)”

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

WHY TRADE?

IT IS BY FAR THE MOST ECONOMICAL WAY TO GROW YOUR COLLECTION.
WHEN YOU TRAVEL, BUY SEVERAL CHIPS FROM CASINO’S YOU VISIT, INSTEAD OF ONE OR TWO. BE PARTICULAR WHEN YOU BUY THEM, GET THEM IN THE BEST POSSIBLE CONDITION.
BY DOING THIS YOU WILL BE IN A MORE ECONOMICAL POSTION TO TRADE FOR CHIPS YOU WANT IN YOUR COLLECTION.
I HAVE ALWAYS BEEN A PROPONENT OF TRADING. I AVERAGED 2 OR 3 TRADES EVERY WEEK. (BACK IN THE DAY)
THERE HAS BEEN A LOT OF DISCUSSION ABOUT TRADING ON THE CHIPBOARD OVER THE YEARS. HERE ARE PROBLEMS THAT MANY PEOPLE DO NOT LOOK AT WHILE TRYING TO REASON WHY NO ONE WANTS TO TRADE WITH THEM.
1) WHEN THEY PUT UP IMAGES OF THEIR TRADERS THEY ARE FILTHY DIRTY AND/OR TOTALLY THRASHED.
2) WHEN VISITING A CASINO AND PURCHASING ONLY ONE OR TWO CHIPS YOU ARE NOT INCREASING YOUR TRADE INVENTORY, AND BY NOT INCREASING YOUR TRADE INVENTORY YOU ARE NOT INCREASING YOUR OPPORTUNITY TO TRADE.
3) TRYING TO INITIATE TRADES ONCE EVERY MONTH OR TWO, DOES NOT SERVE YOU WELL EITHER. YOU NEED TO ADVERTISE SO PEOPLE REMEMBER YOU.
4) KEEP LETTING YOUR CHIPPER FRIENDS KNOW THAT YOU ARE INTERESTED IN TRADING.
5) BUILD A NETWORK OF FRIENDS AND ASSOCIATES THAT WILL HELP YOU OUT WHEN YOU NEED A CHIP FROM A CERTAIN CASINO.
6) THESE ARE SOME IDEAS THAT I THINK WILL HELP, THAT IS IF YOU WANT TO GROW YOUR COLLECTION
