Interesting stuff - especially that £10.
The Leicester casino which did have Gentings chips were using the new 50p on the BJ table - just couldn't win one (and the dealer wouldn't let me have a couple!). I didn't check the rack at Luton because I thought that the one I picked up there was their new chip, so I guess they could have had the other ones as well.
If you have any traders from the local Gentings casinos I'm sure I can find something to trade - I will be going to Aspers in Stratford tomorrow evening so if you need their chips let me know - I'll be trying to get £1 traders but can also get a £5 if you want one.
It will be interesting once Gentings replace all of their Stanley chips, although I still needed a few £5 ones - maybe they will appear on Ebay once people realise they can't be used again! I have even picked up a couple of £25 chips over the years from sellers who 'had a chip left in their pocket after a night out' but never pay more than £10 - I always make sure I check that I have cashed in my £25 chips before I leave a casino
And let me know when you plan that big trip - I'll definitely be up for some chips!
In fact, just in case anyone has any, I need the following £5 Stanley chips from (as per the names on the chips) before they disappear :
Albion,
Circus Casino Birmingham,
Stanley Circus (no location, gold ring around the white centre),
Edinburgh,
Circus Edinburgh,
Glasgow,
Grand,
Lytham St Annes,
Renshaw Street,
Stoke,
Strand,
Torquay,
York Place
