…Who enjoys the HOBBY of Chip Collecting, does not need the Casino Collectibles Association, they don’t need the Museum of Gaming History. They don’t need any local Chip Clubs to ENJOY the HOBBY. All you really need is CHIPS. You can go to casinos & get just about all you want. Then find fellow chippers to trade with. Buy some collections from other collectors to build up more traders & additions to your collection. Check out Chip Dealers, some have extensive inventories.

That way you can skip/ignore all of the infighting, politics & BS that has been going on quite a bit lately. By a LOT of people. Including those who think they need to REPEATEDLY go on the attack about the same thing. 😖

ALL of you need to give it a break. Especially when it comes to the CHIP GUIDE. Which Chip Collectors do need. Some check it out several times a day. Most don’t give a damn who is in charge of it, who the admins are, who the people are behind the scenes. They just want to learn about CASINO CHIPS.

Time for ALL of you to step back. The convention is coming around in about 5 weeks. Are you going to be at each other’s throats there? 🤔 Instead you should be enjoying the chips & more importantly the friends you have made in the HOBBY. No doubt this post will fall on deaf ears for some, because quite frankly they don’t know how to let things go. Especially one past CCA Board member.

To end on a high note, below is a photo of a great looking chip set, that used to be in my collection. 😊
