Mark: Returning to the $1,000,000 offer: It's clear to anyone who reads it that the number of chips are unspecified. Thus, the buyer takes the risk--it is caveat emptor, as far as I am concerned. Further, you give assurances that the chips will not all be $5,000 amounts. Thus, the buyer knows he is getting more than 200 chips, if my math is correct [& that's always questioanble]. The present bidder [whoever it may be]is therefore paying less than $2 a chip and that is not outrageous even for fantasy chips. But in your ad, you do say that the chips are "from" identified closed casinos. They are not "from" any casino,Mark. A novice may be misled, even though you may not be intending to mislead. I would urge that you amend this and future auction ads to make clear that the chips have no connection to any casino other than to identify them by name.
