I was merely suggesting bringing it to their attention. It can be done in a friendly, educational, non-scolding way. I don't think Heritage has done anything wrong, and they should not be made to feel that they have. They might want to know how the collecting community feels about this practice, though. I doubt they want to alienate their bidders, any more than we want to alienate them. I really wasn't suggesting we make them look like bad guys. I can't speak for Sheldon, though. I do think it is advisable for the Club to take a position on chip modifications, however, and doing nothing is implicitly accepting the practice. I understand I am just one member, though, and will be OK with any decision the board ultimately makes.
