[This is a duplication of the post below.]
I am starting a number of Round Robins---enough for anyone and everyone to participate.
RR#1 will include West Coast chips (California, Oregon, Washington State and Arizona)
RR#2 will include only Nevada Chips.
RR#3 will include all other states (including riverboats, cruise ship chips etc.)
RR#1, #2 and #3 will all be $1.00 chips
RR#4 will be fractionals ($0.25¢ and $0.50¢ chips)from all over
RR#5 will consist of $5.00 chips (mainly California, Washington)
RR#6 will consist of $5.00 chips from other states,(mainly commemoratives) as will
RR#7 and possibly #8 depending upon the response.
Rules are simple:
Take what you want and replace them with another chip of the same face value and in the relatively the same condition. Many of these chips MIGHT be considered obsolete as some are no longer available at the casinos. As far as I am concerned, they are all worth face value and no more, although I know others will place a higher value on them.
I think it would be nice if each participant would scan the chip(s) they are taking and scan the chips replaced. This is not mandatory as many do not have scanners but for those that have them available, I think it would be appreciated.
All chips to be mailed via priority mail (insurance is voluntary) however the responsiblity is up to the sender, not the sendee. (my own term.)
Please post the notice on the board when a package is received and when and to whom it is next on the list.
I will try to limit each round robin to around 10 people or so but may have to add more names depending upon the response. I can always add additional RR for the $1.00 and Fractional but might be limited on the $5.00 chips.
You may participate in more than one RR, however, your name will be placed on the bottom of any subsequent RR of the same denomination. I intend to keep these going for quite awhile so everyone will get their chance to join.
Please, Please, if you are going to be away from home during the expected arrival time of your RR, let me know so that I may reroute you to the next position. You will not miss your turn.
I can't think of anything else at the moment, but if I missed something, please let me know or ask other RR participants.
This is a great opportunity for a lot of newbies to acquire chips at face value.
Get smart people and stop paying ebay prices for current and commemorative chips by people who are in this club just to reap a profit. Await for the round robins and others willing to trade across the board for face value.
I will post all the names and the order in which they will be mailed on the board within two or three days.
Let's have a big turnout.
P.S. every RR will have at least 1 obsolete chip.
