Here's the deal Tom

I really hope you got the chip you wanted, and I hope you bought it at a reasonable price.

That said, you were totally dishonest on the way you went about finding out what the going price for the chip was.You showed disrespect to the collectors who made sale offers. It does not matter what sale price was that they offered you, you could have turned them down.

It is also a hobby to me and I would not have taken any price for my chips. But I would show proper respect to you and anyone else who wanted to make an offer.

Your misconception that everyone has a price is a figment of your imagination.

Good luck with your hobby.
