He has a bunch of nice chips, 88 auctions at the present. Dunes, Sundance and the Sahara metal centers. It seems like someone has purchased a large selection of chips, or decided to "open the flood gates". Numerous club chips from Aladdin. Real incused Silver Bird chips.
Only complaint would be listing Hacienda chips as *rare* on the auctions.
Years ago, before this BB I commented on the Sahara $5 metal center, house mold. Someone had offered boxes of them at $20 a hundred. I used to see them in almost every sale book, at coin shows. TCR has them still, as a "B" chip. But I was scolded for saying these are cheap and out by the bucket full.
It looked for awhile like the supply had dried up. No offers to sell, no eBay sales, they weren't everywhere like mushrooms in stockbooks. I guess they are still around, but were just taking a nap! But also a good deal for any collector, who wants to as a chip that's over 25 years old, nice design and reasonable in price.
