Bill,
When it comes to Venetian LE's you are dealing with a Casino that has a nasty habit of putting all of their LE's on the tables as soon as they are released. If your not there when that happens then you end up having to get them off of the tables. Since they use Paul-Son chips they are going to get nicked VERY quickly & are of little use to collectors or dealers who want uncirculated chips. Bally's & the Gold Coast do the same thing & what happens is that instead of the chips walking out the door in the numbers they should they instead stay on the tables getting beat to death. I have tried explaining this to these Casinos, but, it has fallen on deaf ears..........Andy - Las Vegas

P.S. I sold my last $5 Venetian Grand Canal chip about 10 days ago.
