In this case we are letting the casino dictate how the sets are sold due to the fact that they made a 1/5/25 set, each of the three chips is different and the casino only made 300 of them. The casinos want to make money from CHip Collectors and I prefer the ole "throw in a $25 chip" to selling sets over face. I suppose my "perverse logic pricing" has confused a few of my customers. This old city boy, won't split sets again and I can thank your post for that decision. The casino will not sell the $1's without buying the $5 and $25. I have to defend that practice because if they did sell the $1's seperatly, the first collector in line would have bought all 300 $1's and then turned around and sold them for $100 each.
Tell me, if you had only seen 1/5/25 sets for sale at $50 would you have felt dealers were taking advantage of you?
I'm surprised that you have been beating my prices on Ebay. I've watched Colorado chips selling there to "newbies" for much more then I have them listed for. There are even a few people that buy chips from me and then mark them up and re-sell them on Ebay.
