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

Hello Chippers and da’ kind; I will start listing all new arrivals below as I receive them. If there isn’t any to list I will note that, too. Not much news on the local front. Our Coastal Towns are slowly, but steadily putting their homes and businesses back together. We have a cold front floating through this weekend, that doesn’t help. Reggie

* Please note; anyone that has any amount of used 30 pocket plastic sheets to spare, please, get in touch with me. I do not need 20 pocket sheets, nor flips, or air tights at this time.

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.

New Arrivals Last Week:

Busted Flush $1 Nipomo, CA $60

Postings that could be done each day I post:

3 Single CA chips
2 Single NV chips
1 Single Other States etc.
1 Single MT chip
1 Set of Chips
1 Postcard (5 on Sat.)
2 California Featured Chips (Scarce & Rare)
2 Nevada Featured Chips (Better Chips)
1 Page of California Chips (on Saturday’s-BOGO’s)
1 Page of Cheap Chips page whenever I can find enough strays to put the pages together.
Every Saturday: A message to the CB Readers
And on every Saturday another “SPOTLIGHTED SPECIAL FEATURE CHIP(S)”

BUY-SELL-TRADE

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

* I will trade Postcards, CA, MT or NV chips for MT chips.

NEVADA POSTCARD INVENTORY AVAILABLE (Every Post Card Shipped $220 or best OFFER!)

I still have a considerable amount of post cards available (about 440). I have an excel I can send you to check out. From your viewing of the post cards available in the excel; you can order one post card, all the postcards that have your favorite casino included in, or buy me out (the entire lot). Remember there will be postage for each order.
