Hi Jeff, Let me say if you took my statement personal I apologize,

Let me explain further my statement was generated from this previous statement in this thread:

In 2000 Rene Nendoza brought 300 plus of that chip to the Tropicana convention. 100 were pretty good, the rest were pretty worn.
First time anyone had ever seen them. He had a good story, but if you knew Rene?? What else can I say?

He said TBird, LV.
I said Tbird East Cape Girardeau, Illinois, illegal.

He smiled and said makes no difference to me, still $25 each. I coughed the $25 up knowing in my mind it was IL. The smile on his face made me think he agreed with me but there would be more sales with a TBird Las Vegas sign on them.

Up until now I didn't even know you sold this chip and didn't know of you. Plus I never called you a thief.
