I encourage chippers to come speak your minds in that discussion. We really need you. So far no one is coming up with the reasons why knock-offs are bad. Many ChipTalkers just can’t see the collector’s point of view from knowing nothing but “personal use” of a chip set. They don’t realize that those chips WILL be on the market someday, and they will diminish the value of the real thing.

I honestly don't fault them. I didn't know any better myself when I got into this hobby. But we could all use some different perspectives.

I hope to chipboard folks will come speak up. I welcome you wholeheartedly and I feel we really need you.

Sincerely,

Greg K Cagle
