My Fellow Chippers,

Just to make sure the facts are right:

1. I aquired an extra convention chip of the Hard Rock, The O'Shea's set, and the $5 Trop chip with the intent of putting these items on eBay at 99 cents starting bid, so that someone that wasn't able to go but wanted one for their collection would be able to bid.

2. I would have never dreamed it would go as high as it is now, so I hardly think you can call this "greed". Please remember I started the bid at 99 cents, same as with the O'Shea's chip set and the $5 Trop chip.

I am willing to bet that because of what has transpired with this Hard Rock Convention chip, the pre-registration will double or triple for the 2002 Convention!

I had a wonderful time at the convention, met so many wonderful people and can't wait to do it all over again next year.............except I'm flying next year and not driving (3750 miles round trip).

Many Thanks,
