I am somewhat disturbed over the recent chat to relocate casino chip auctions from EBay to Jackpot Auctions to avoid all the other chip auctions. I am a member of the Club and I collect antique Dale Seymour type, generic, home play poker chips that apparently some of you find annoying and beneath your collecting standards. I also collect all chips from Oregon and love older type "illegal" and obsolete chips. I know I am in a minority but I have met some wonderful people on this ChatBoard and have traded with them casino chips I have found for antique clays they have accumulated. I have also received valuable knowledge and given knowledge in return. I regularly check casino chip auctions on Ebay for "my" type chips and it frequently pays off. I once found a $25.00 Playboy chip in a junk shop of all places, put it on Ebay and got a good price for it after I got some advice from this Board. I can't see where you can cut chip collecting into black and white catagories. We are all collectors, we all cross over into each others colletions. Where am I going with this post, hmmmmm. I'd like to see some discussion feedback on this issue. Nancy Olson Portland, Oregon R-5436
