Dear Fellow Chippers,
I just came across this major TV publicity opportunity for collectors. They mention an interest in collectors of antique gaming equipment, but I wouldn't discount chips and other stuff. I know many of you have great stories to tell of how you acquire stuff. Send them a pitch and good luck, but do it ASAP!

The producers of the History Channel are looking for contestants

passionate about collecting and picking together! Do you spot the
hidden treasures that others miss? Do you love going to flea
markets, garage sales, etc in order to find unique items to add
to your collection? Do you know how to flip items for profit? Do
you specialize in collecting items like cast iron, military
items, taxidermy, oil/gas memorabilia, folk art, antique gaming
equipment, tv & movie memorabilia, etc? Do you have a huge
collection at home that you are proud to have on display? If so,
