I think it would be a good deal.

When I first came up with the question I immediately tossed out a fair deal & a great deal. No way is 28% a great deal. Nor do I think it is only a fair deal. Keep in mind that these are tougher to find chips. If the person selling these chips knows that then most of the time they are not going to discount them much more than 30% or so. If they did then the deal starts to move up to being a very good deal in my opinion. If I had to put a % range off of the low TCR listing then it would look like what you see below.

1. A fair deal 15 to 20%
2. A good deal 21 to 30%
3. A very good deal 31 to 40%
4. A great deal 41% or higher.

As most who follow the hobby know, the common older obsolete Nevada chips are not doing very good in this economy. The tougher to find & scarcer older obsolete Nevada chips seem to be selling a little better than I would have expected. Not as good as maybe three years ago though.

Then of course LE's sometimes don't even sell for face value. I think some collectors started to get burned out on them even before the economy tanked. Then again with newer collectors being able to buy LE's at close to face value it just might help the hobby in the long run. I have found that quite a few collectors who start out buying LE's move on to current house chips & then obsoletes over time.
