GREAT SHOW- I WAS THERE !
In Response To: Just had to share this ()

Jim Munding's 1st. Bellflower show was great. I also had the pleasure of being there. Steve's great video is a real piece of chip collecting history. Me and my partner Larry had no idea , what these chips were really worth. We had just closed a deal for the entire chip inventory for the Bell Gardens poker club in L.A. We brought all the chips to the show, I believe it was about 250 racks or 25,000 chips. Numerous denominations, 25c to $100 chips. We were selling a complete wooden rack 100 chips for $5 a rack. I think our largest buyer that day was Jerry Wall who bought about a 100 racks. We sold out very quickly. It was a fun day.
