I've tried to stay away from all these controversies as I was once known as a "flamer" <g> over on *PC and found that it was best to mind your own businees but this time I couldn't resist. For all that Jim has done, he should be applauded by anyone who still considers this a hobby! How fraud presented to a new collector and 'stealing' roulette chips can be considered the same I'll never know? In order for this hobby or any hobby and club to expand its ranks, experienced collectors MUST guide newbies in the right direction and that does include informing them of a mis-represented item for sale or at auction. One bad deal and you'd never see this person again and his 'bad taste' spread to others considering joining our ranks would be even worse. I've always called a spade a spade in anything I've done in life. I've pissed off a few people but so be it!
I say again Jim, well done!!!
