Doug,

The Casino of the Sun (COTS) just started a slot club, so slot cards are new. They have also just re-opened their poker room and have re-validated their previously invalidated chips. COTS is also building a new facility which will house a new poker room and they are trying to gain approval to offer Las Vegas table games. If so, they will again pull their old chips and then release a new rack in October. Otherwise, the only new chips they have are their Tournament chips, 3 colors, HS-Gold and as I recall, the Unicorn mold.

The Desert Diamond is also building a new facility and will likely have a new rack and also a Grand Opening LE. Otherwise, their original rack is in use, looks terrible and only the two chip has ever been re-ordered. They did issue a $5 Fifth Anniversay/Millennium LE last year, which is still available at the cage. I suspect that they will do a slot club at the new facility but that is still some time away (8 months or so). The new facility will also offer lodging, so a room key collectible is in the future.

BTW - You are more than welcome to contact me when you get here at 520.529.3245.

Drive safely.

Jim
