It is true Doug but what I am trying to do is record all I can find at the moment and post on my searchips.com website then keep updating it every time I saw one on eBay or here. Maybe few years later we will at least have a better idea how many are out there. At least they are not seen on eBay too often. I may later take over the Sahara project as well as the old one stopped updating.
My idea is to record some rare and hot stuff something like palm beach set, maybe riviera set as well. Not many ppl know who has them and once ppl want to buy or trade some pieces they can find reference or at least they can find the contact detail so they can have a try.
I still haven't figure out the best way to do it so I start from Paris jetons as more ppl can join this project and I will have a good start. I personally like those jetons so I am also thinking of taking all I can get if the price is under the average let's say $5 jeton under $30 for example. So I will announce that I will bid on eBay at least $30 for the $5 jeton and so anyone outbid me will pay at least $30 otherwise it will be mine. And I can track it through the seller.
