I think it is better to have these out of the closet, like it or not. They are potentially worse for the hobby to be bought and controlled. LUCKY LUCKY they came out. As the values of chips grow, soon will more interest and greed. I'm guessing once chips are known to be potentially valuable in pop-culture the market will experience a lot of weird stuff that make this find look like peanuts, counterfeiting and chip manipulation ect from home and abroad. is an un-tapped well. sad but true! Instead of sending random emails about how someone wants to transfer you 10 million dollars into your bank account they will be selling rare chips on ebay, probably to people who don't even know the difference at that point. (that may sound a little far fetched, but imagine what you think is possible) The hobby will need a very strong and active advocate to wrangle the new climate to come. It is all good. The hobby will need to protect itself or it will get hijacked and dragged through the dirt. Just like Salvador Dali Prints, for the most part semi-worthless even if they are real, like a fresh find of tasty AC chips. Outside perception will influence "chip values" to come. Food for thought... This is a subject that needs to be planned for. I have a feeling there will be more chips popping up than we can expect. Could effect the investments people have made when passing chips to there kids or grandkids, or even getting proper insurance for your own collection. and yes I do not offer any solutions other than organizing before it is too late and maybe some exchange of ideas.
