Bruce,

Chips where held for new chip services to do any damn thing they want to do with them.
Although I don't agree with what Rene' is doing it's his right to do it.
Instead of bad mouthing him, if you don't like his prices...don't bid on his auctions.
What makes one chip service honest and the next one dishonest? I can't believe you think it's the price. An auction on ebay (not mine) for this same token ended yesterday. The final price was over $75 I guess that makes the seller dishonest.
Could it be that you aren't one of the people who have chips and tokens waitin for them at the Riviera? Sounds like sour grapes to me.
