So I have a question.

I recently purchased a bunch of chips off of Craigslist from a seller that said they had some casino chips from Reno Tahoe and Las Vegas. about 2 1/2 cases, in a box. I thought cases were probably racks. So about 250 chips. They were for sale for $100.

I contacted the seller and let her know I was interested and met her. When looking at the chips, I thought I was taking a chance but there were some cool looking chips, especially a Club Cal Neva Roulette chip. I also know enough that some of the chips were still in use and all of the AC chips could be redeemed at face. I also noticed that there were no Vegas chips and only around 150 chips. I had no idea about what 95% of the chips were worth.

As it turns out there are several in there that are each "book valued" at more than I paid for the lot. What do I do now? I thought I was taking somewhat of a risk and didn't get all that was advertised, but figured I could at least get my money back by piecing the chips out if I chose to do that.

I thought I was taking a risk, albeit a safe one, but am I supposed to contact the seller back now and offer her more money now or the chips back ($100 is still a lot of money to me)?

My View
Tell seller the truth ask for a deal & sleep well
...and wake up the next morning to find it on eBay
My take....
My story on the subject
Reverse the situation...
Doing the right thing is not always
So I have a question.
The seller set the price...& you paid what she was
IMO the deal stands.
