Larry,
I know dealers who stand behind what they sell regardless of the circumstances and I know dealers who look for any reason to get away from a buyer who is not happy.<g> I also know many dealers in between.
I am not trying to give a right or wrong answer. I do know this - most buyers don't care about scenerios. If they buy a chip for a price; they expect the chip to be worth THAT price. They don't care about big dogs, little dogs or hot dogs.<vbg>
There are a couple of individuals who hang around your porch (Northern Nevada) who sell chips and are infamous for different prices depending upon what day of the week it is.<g> I do admit one thing - they are not prejudice, they will shaft another dealer just as soon as a collector. One day it will catch up with them and they will find that collectors and dealers will do just fine without their chips. Thanks for your opinion. Best, Jim
