Don't forget too, that "asking" a price and "getting" it are two very different animals. Plenty of chips on Ebay are going "No-Bid" when people have high minimums, or even worse from my point of view, secret reserves.

There are "good deals" to be had on Ebay though. I just bought a $25 chip from the Horseshoe in Reno in excellent shape for $3.50. How many dealers have them at that price?
