"It would create a new market for de-slabbed chips"

....there already is a market for de-slabbed chips. It's called chip collectors, and I can point you to several dealers that will sell you a de-slabbed AZ Charlie's East $1 uncirculated chip for $3 or $4.

Let ICG give away their samples. I got an Aladdin $1 slabbed chip yesterday for free. I'll keep it. ...and I'll tell ICG what I think about their plans to invade our hobby. They don't have a clue!
