Hello Chipping Community; It is almost Halloween, if anyone has a nice Halloween chip collection please show and share. More, new arrivals this past week, check ‘em out below. Once again I have been toying with the idea to slow down my postings. But, no decision on that; just yet. 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.

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

24 HOUR RULE

If at all possible the 24 hour rule should be applicable to the following scenarios:
• ORDERING A CHIP THAT HAS LIMITED AVAILABILITY AND IS POSTED AS SUCH.
Try to remember to make a final confirmation and or arrangements for payment and shipment. (24 Hours)
• ORDERING ANYTHING AND NOT COMMUNICATING TO THE SELLER YOU WON’T BE ABLE TO PAY FOR IT RIGHT AWAY.
When you have a responsible seller that informs you that your item is available and what the price & shipping is, and you do not get back to seller (In 24 Hours) to inform them you will be sending payment (today, tomorrow or next week) you really are not worthy of any special considerations in the future. Please do not request a trade, or purchase and then not be available, by phone or email for the 24 hours or more. There may be extenuating conditions attached to the items ordered. If the seller/trader cannot get a hold of you do not be surprised if he doesn’t have it available after your finally get back in touch with him.
• MAKE A REQUEST FOR INFORMATION OR AN ITEM SEARCH OF AVAILABILITY, AND WHEN INFORMATION IS SENT OR QUESTIONS HAVE BEEN ANSWERED:
Always try to respond to this answer of information; that has been imparted by the person that it was requested from; within a short time (24 Hours)
• REQUEST A STATEMENT OF ACCOUNT (If you are using some one’s hold service or new chip service)
And then not pay them in a timely manner, is not a good practice. If you are experiencing buyer’s remorse, get back to the seller ASAP, they may not hold you to your purchase, the sooner the better. Also, life tends to get in the way of a chipper’s good intentions, but let them know you have (financial or time problems and have to re-schedule (payments-or the request made) (24 Hours)
• WHEN BUYING, TRADING OR SELLING ALWAYS BE AN EQUAL PARTNER IN THE TRANSACTION. KEEP YOUR ASSOCIATES IN THE LOOP IF YOU CANNOT PERFORM YOUR PART OF THE BARGAIN RIGHT AWAY TELL THEM WHEN YOU WILL BE ABLE TO.
Everybody has a life, and sometimes it gets in the way of Chippin’. So tell your Chippin’ partners that you may not be able to get back to them right away with the information or order processing or, whatever. (24 Hours)
• THE FINAL COMMENT I WOULD LIKE TO MAKE IS THE DEFINITION OF THE WORD “COURTESY”, THE DICTIONARY DEFINES IT AS POLITENESS. BUT IT GOES EVEN FARTHER THAN THAT, LITTLE THINGS LIKE BEING STRAIGHT FORWARD ABOUT YOUR REQUESTS, BEING HONEST, AND ACCOUNTABLE FOR YOU ACTIONS.
The best thing about our group (The CCA) is the above statement, because most of us do practice and use these rules. (24 Hours A Day)
