Fred,
I made a number of them, & as Norm Clem said..."it is an unwritten rule that you do not harvest during a event but ok at other non events."

I agree with him, but that said, I do not harvest chips at non poker events because it is not worth it to me. Why get barred from playing poker tournaments to add a chip to your collection or to make a small profit. I see some harvesting chips from the WSOP & selling them on , they either don't care if they get barred or are too stupid & do not think they will ever get caught. It is the latter in most cases.
