Good question.

Why is it the Claridge releases are not secrets anymore and all the COLLECTORS
that live near AC can get their fair share the day they come out?

Yet chips from other casino(S), of which I will not mention again, are kept big
secrets and distributed in the most unusual ways one could even imagine?

Has anyone else heard this from their friends like I have............
"Why bother anymore, the only chips the common collectors can get are the ones
worth face value. I'm quitting my AC Collection". I didn't say it, but several
people have to me.

I still like my chips and the people I trade with but you gotta wonder sometimes
about the big picture...................
