Brian & Pete,
Yes, like Pete's scan except that the ones I got must have been just after they received a new shipment. They really are mint.
I was just looking at the archives and saw a thread talking about the over use of the word "rare". I agree.
To give Brian an example; I had an auction end last night on ebay. It was for a Luxor Manhattan Transfer $5 chip. The title said "$5 Luxor Manhattan Transfer = LE 3000" or something close to that. The important thing is that the title made it clear that the LE was 3,000. When checking my auction, I noticed that I had made a typo in the description and it said LE 300 rather than LE 3000. I wrote an email to all 4 bidders pointing out the typo and told the high bidder that I would understand if she wanted to back out as she had a $20 bid on the $5 chip. The auction ended and I got a response to my notice saying that she was very happy to have been the high bidder and she was sending her payment.
This is not to pat myself on the back (and sorry to be so long winded)
but I have learned from the example of Bob Orme and others that I have bought chips from, i.e. my integrity and reputation is more important than a single sale.
I wish all sellers on ebay felt the same.
Later,
Joe & Patti Watanabe R-4511 (new guy)
