Alot of you are missing the point of the post. Probably my fault for not explaining properly so here goes another try. I'm NOT against anyone selling these chips for $40+ on the open market if someone can get them at face at the casino. I also fault no one for collecting them as anyone can collect anything they like. What I'm against is the procedures Hooters is using when they release these chips. They always lie or change the release date they set for offering these chips so it makes it difficult for COLLECTORS who want these chips and are fortunate enough to live in Vegas and get them at face not being able to. That's it, no problems with collectors, club members, the club, those selling on ebay or here with BB post, none of those. Just a BIG problem with the Hooters management and their not sticking to a set release date. Hopefully this cleared it up for everyone.
