I am trying to find a set of about 1000 retired casino chips to play poker with. I've been all over ebay but not really seen what I want unless the price was out of this world. Is this something collectors would have? Would there be any chance of finding something like that at your national convention?

I am not trying to find rare or exotic chips, just lots of matching nice ones. Would anyone venture an opinion about what I might expect to pay if I can find what I'm looking for?
