I think it might be a cost issue why so many of those who are interested in casino chips living in Europe do not join our club... and some of the other reasons just might be that the open trading is so vast due to the fact that our magazine is well-circulated around Europe along with eBay exposure... and of course all of our interesting websites which I'm sure attract many. I also notice that Romania seems to yield the greater number of casual chippers; mostly those at sea, and the brief contact I've had with a few when they are ashore is that their interests are in the chips from Europe and Central/South America (mostly current issue)... though some of the women do like the Rock-related/Diva Vegas chips.

Several of us in Florida have really tried to induct thru the years, while being able to pick up a few from the United Kingdom; whom may or may not kept current, but still remained somewhat active...

It's not an easy task by any means... and I commend you for your efforts, as I know how good it feels to introduce someone from a far-off land to our club...

Good luck...!
