When I learned of the new $1 Bay 101 design from Raulin, I just had to get some chips for myself at the casino, so . . . on my next periodic visit, a few weeks ago, I bought a rack of $1 chips - and pulled out a small stack of the newly-designed chips. Returning to the Cage to cash in the older $1 chips, I passed a $2 poker table where a player seemed to be doing really well. He had a whole pyramid of green $2 chips in front of him, must have been several hundred. And suddenly, an inspiration! If they had new 1's, why not new 2's?? At the Cage window, I spotted what seemed to be a newly-designed $2 chip atop a small stack, so I asked the cashier if I could buy "the new $2 chip." And wouldn't you know, she replied: "What new chip? We don't have any!" I persisted, and she threw the $2 chips on the counter and I pointed to the one I wanted. She apparently still didn't realize it was anything new, but laughed and sold it to me, most likely thinking, "Silly fellow, making a fuss over one of our green chips."
Went back to the other cage window (fortunately Bay 101 has two cashier areas) with the proceeds from re-selling the $1 chips and bought half-a-rack of green 2's, and went to the back of the casino where I could quietly sort through them. Figured the guards would give me the evil eye, but nobody seemed to notice as I pulled out about 5 more of the newly-designed chips.
Back to the other counter, turned in the older 2's and got a very small stack of 5's, and yes - my hunch turned out correct again as I found two newly-designed fives there also. All in all, a happy chipping experience when I can "think out" the situation and then find the chips to prove my theory is right. Einstein should have been so lucky with relativity!
Glad I made your day, Cousin,
J. Eric
PS: Raulin may have more redesigned Bay 101's at this point - he was planning to return to the casino after I told him of my discovery. If not, I will probably return in October, with some big bills, and try buying a rack of 5's and some more 2's, such that I should have enough of the newly-designed chips to supply most everyone interested. The chips won't be "rare" but anyone collecting "California" will doubtless want one, or a set.

THIS TRIP WAS WITH KEN, MY SON; WE HAD ALREADY BEEN TO DEADWOOD, MONTANA AND PARTS OF WASHINGTON. THE DAY DID NOT START OUT VERY GOOD, WE GOT HELD UP BY A SWING BRIDGE, THAT LET SEVERAL SHIPS THROUGH A CHANNEL 50 MILES SOUTH OF PORT ANGELES. THIS CAUSED US TO MISS THE FERRY TO VICTORIA. ANOTHER 3 HOUR WAIT WAS THE RESULT OF THE PREVIOUS WAIT AT THE BRIDGE.
WE FINALLY MADE IT OVER TO VICTORIA TO ENJOY ALL THAT VICTORIA HAD TO OFFER; THAT WE HAD TIME FOR. IT IS REALLY A VERY SPECIAL CITY TO VISIT FOR THOSE OF YOU THAT ARE LOOKING FOR A PLACE TO GO ON YOUR NEXT VACATION.
KEN AND I NEEDED A LONG BREAK AFTER WALKING ALL OVER THE BUTCHART GARDENS. THE HARVEST WAS REALATIVELY EASY TO MAKE, IF YOU WERE WILLING TO BUY CHIPS FROM A BLACK JACK TABLE AND PLAY A FEW HANDS. THE TRICKY PART IS THAT ALL OF THE CHIPS HAVE DATE #’S ON THEM. I WAS TRYING TO GET 5 OF EACH NUMBER, SO I WOULD BUY CHIPS PLAY A HAND OR TWO, THEN GO CHECK THEM OUT SOME WHERE AWAY FROM THE EYES OF THE PIT BOSSES, CASH THE ONES NOT NEEDED, AND DO IT OVER AGAIN. I NEVER DID GET ENOUGH OF SOME DATES ON THE CHIPS. THERE WAS A CAFÉ ATTACHED TO THE CASINO, WHERE KEN WAS RELAXING THAT I EVENTUALLY BROUGHT MY TREASURES FOR HIM TO HOLD ON TO UNTIL I WAS DONE. THE CHEF, WHO OWNED THE FRANCHISE WAS FASCINATED WITH WHAT I WAS DOING SO I GAVE HIM THE SHORT VERSION OF HOW MUCH FUN CHIP COLLECTING IS. NEVER DID GET ALL I NEEDED FROM THIS CASINO.…REGGIE - PS this casino is now the View Royal.

I am always trying to put things together that have some semblance of balance. Of course, that will always be in the eye of the beholder. Some of these may attract you the collector a little or a lot, no matter which way it attracts, please know I am always trying to help you out, with items you want at price that is fair. For now, I am going to do them every week, but as an unscheduled surprise feature…Thanks for looking. Reggie
If you have some ideas about compatible pairs please send them in to me. If it is possible and I happen to have the two, they will be put on the docket...reg
Add one dollar for shipping, unless you have a hold service with me

These tips are for new collectors that want to start trading; and possibly a refresher for old timers that are just starting to liquidate their collections. I will try to be as descriptive as possible on these tips. Let’s start small a work up to larger shipments. Also, on the bottom the page some tips on the tips…I can use some additional help with these.
• For one to about five chips you can use the sticky corrugated paper; size it (for a small or large envelope) and press your chips into it. This works wonderfully well and protects the chips, I do not recommend this method for very old and brittle chips. (or HHR/HHL, A-Mold, Tri-Club and this type of chip)
• For one to about four chips, wrap them individually in paper and make squares. Tape to hold the paper closed. Then lay the four chips (squares) on a regular sized sheet, taping them so they cannot move; (doubling the paper helps) and fold it to fit the envelope uniformly and tape the end of the folded sheets of paper.
• For one to about 8 chips, a more conventional way to ship is a bubble mailer, size 000. Use 30 pocket vinyl pages cut down to configure to your bubble mailer, all bubble mailers are not “exactly the same”. Be sure that the chips are completely pushed into the slots and then run a piece of scotch magic transparent horizontally the length of the cut vinyl, to insure they stay in the slots. (make a pull tab for easy removal)
• For one to about 15 chips use a size “0” bubble mailer, with the same instructions as for the “000” above.
• 16-20 chips can be handled in several ways: 1) You can use a size “0” bubble mailer; cut a 30 pocket vinyl page in half and put a piece of small size bubble mailer or plastic film sponge wrap between the two halves. 2) A little more expensive but you can use USPS flat rate large envelopes, these will hold a full page. Either 20 or 30 pocket pages, wrapped in small bubble wrap or plastic film wrap. Be sure and cellophane tape the edges, corners , the seal and address/return address.
• 20-60 chips can be sent via USPS Flat Rate, as described in the second method just above. Also, if you wrap 15-25 chips with a single sheet of paper and tape the rolled chips securely so they will not break open. Place them in the smallest sized USPS box and put foam pellets, wadded paper, or rolled up bubble wrap/film, firmly in between the rolls, seal box and add cellophane tape around the edges and addresses.
• Larger orders up to 150 chips, can be shipped in the USPS small Flat Rate boxes, use plastic tubes, up to 21 in each tube. Use a tiny bit of packing material to be sure each tube’s chips are firm, then tape the lid of each tube closed. Each small USPS Flat Rate box, will hold 7 tubes, add a little packing material. You cannot beat this method price wise. *This can be done with the rolled paper method, and get a few more chips than 147.
• For larger than 150 chips use the tubes and a larger Flat Rate box, with basically the same instructions as above. Insurance is always up to you and the person you are shipping to.
TIPS FOR THE TIPS 1. When cutting up 30 pocket vinyl pages, first cut off the 3 hole binder edge, then cut to the following pocket sizes: 6, 8, 9, 10, 12 & 15 these popular sizes; and result in very little waste.
2. Cheapest mailers, large lots of 100 can be found on line (many sources), sticky corrugated paper @ ULine.com. Vinyl pages are on line @ Wizards.com…and other coin collecting supply companies.
3. Try to remember to put some sort of internal return address in each package.
4. Never, Never put any kind of tape or adhesive on any chip when shipping.
5. Try to save your bubble mailers (all sizes) for re-use.
6. Get familiar with USPS, UPS, Fed Ex and da kind and their mailing instructions on line.
7. Old bubble wrap envelopes can be cut up to re-use the bubble wrap for extra packing.
8. Starbucks and da kind hot cup wraps can be used to send single or small amount chips; staple or tape them inside the oval wrap, then tape to 1 or 2 sheets of paper folded to fit envelope to prevent moving around. Use small or #10 envelopes for a much cheaper postage rate.
9. Please, Please do not ship chips loose in manila envelopes. There are some current sellers on the CB that are still doing this; believe it or not…
10. Send me any tips and information that you think would be of interest to our new collectors.
I HAVE BEEN COLLECTING POST CARDS FOR SEVERAL YEARS, AND HAVE SOME PRETTY COOL ONES. THOUGHT IT WOULD BE A NICE THING TO DO; SHARING THEM. NOT QUITE READY TO START SELLING THEM. THAT BEING SAID; SHOULD YOU JUST HAVE TO HAVE ONE OF THESE BEAUTIES, FEEL FREE TO NAME YOUR PRICE IN OTHER WORDS MAKE ME AN HONEST OFFER.…PS. I HAVE ACQUIRED A LARGE AMOUNT OF POST CARDS OF WHICH I NOW HAVE ABOUT 40 TOTAL DUPES. (SEE SECOND POST CARD IMAGE AS A SAMPLING) THEY ARE AVAILABLE, IF INTERESTED JUST ASK REGGIE

MANY YEARS AGO I STARTED MY POSTING, BY POSTING “A SET OF THE DAY” I THINK I HAD ABOUT 300-400 SETS ALL TOGETHER. THAT WAS A LOT OF FUN BACK THEN. AND WHEN I STARTED DOING “A PAGE A DAY” I INCLUDED BETTER SETS AS A CATEGORY.
BUT NOW; RATHER THAN HAVING MY BETTER SETS CATEGORY, I WILL START HAVING A REGULAR SET OF THE DAY WITH MY OTHER FEATURES WHEN I DISPLAY A “PAGE OF THE DAY”.
I AM REDUCING PRICES ON MOST OF THESE SETS, SOME WILL BE FACE VALUE, SO IF YOU SEE SOMETHING YOU LIKE AND WANT, PLEASE DO NOT HESITATE IN SENDING ME AN EMAIL, PUTTING A SOLD SIGN ON THE CB IS NOT THE WAY TO GUARANTEE YOUR PURCHASE OR TRADE. SEE POD FOR P/H RATES. SEND ME AN EMAIL FOR ORDERS OR QUESTIONS…Reggie
Fiesta 1st & Last sets $1's-$8, $2.50's-$10 & $5's-$11 All 3 Sets $25
IT HAS BEEN VERY HARD FOR ME TO KEEP TRACK OF 50 STATES, CANADA, THE CARIBBEAN, WET CHIPS AND MY SPECIAL COLLECTION (CHIPS WITH CARDS ON THEM). I PLAN ON CUTTING THE STATES DOWN TO ABOUT SEVEN + OR -; PLUS, MY SPECIAL COLLECTION (CHIPS WITH CARDS ON THEM) AND CANADA. I HAVE NOT DECIDED WHAT TO DO ABOUT MY WET CHIPS, I LIKE THEM AND ENJOY CRUISING SO, THEY MAY BE A KEEPER.
WHAT YOU SEE BELOW IS WHAT I HAVE SETTLED ON SELLING. ALL OF THE STATES HAVE BEEN PHOTOGRAPHED AND PRICED. I AM NOT HOLDING OUT ANY CHIPS OF THE STATES, EXCEPT A FEW OF THE CHIPS WITH CARDS ON THEM. IF I CAN FIND SOME OF THESE CHIPS IN MY INVENTORY OR PAGES I WILL ADD THEM IN.
I WILL BE FEATURING ONE STATE PER PAGE OF THE DAY IN THE FUTURE. PLEASE, NO CHERRY PICKING REQUESTS, UNTIL I BREAK DOWN THE STATES INTO INDIVIDUAL CHIPS. IT WILL BE TWO YEARS BEFORE I BREAK ANY OF THE LARGER STATES AND WHEN I DO I WILL MAKE AN ANNOUNCEMENT. ANOTHER MANNER OF MARKETING MAY BE BY CASINO AFTER I BREAK THE STATE UP, I MAY OFFER COMPLETE OR INCOMPLETE GROUPS/SETS FROM INDIVIDUAL CASINOS. ALSO, I HAVE THOUGHT ABOUT MERGING THE SMALLER STATES INTO THE POD PAGES, AFTER TWO YEARS; THAT SEEMS TO BE THE EASIEST.
A WORD ON WHAT APPEARS TO BE DUPLICATES ON THE PAGES. THESE ARE UV OR MOLD VARIATIONS. I AM NOT GOING TO PULL THESE OUT AT THIS TIME. SHOULD THIS BECOME A NEGOTIATING FACTOR AND THE BUYER ONLY WANTS JUST ONE CHIP AND THE UV’S AND MOLDS MATTER NOT, THEN I WILL REMOVE THEM AND ADJUST THE PRICE ACCORDINGLY.
FOLKS, MANY OF THESE CHIPS ARE ALIVE, AND STILL BEING USED ON THE TABLES TODAY. SHOULD YOU BE NEAR BY A CLUSTER OF CASINOS FROM ANY PARTICULAR STATE, YOU PROBABLY CAN COME OUT AHEAD. ALSO, PLEASE KNOW THAT I CONSTANTLY OVER THE LAST 12 YEARS UP GRADED. I BOUGHT ANY NEW CASINO ISSUES WHEN THEY COME OUT FROM THE LOCAL CHIPPER THAT OFFERED THEM FOR SALE ON THE CHIPBOARD. THANKS FOR TAKING A LOOK-SEE…REGGIE
PS: IF YOU DO NOT SEE THE STATE YOU HAD YOUR EYE ON IN THIS LIST BELOW ANY MORE; IT’S BECAUSE IT HAS BEEN SOLD…reg
Starting 2016, I have listed everything I have (all of my excel inventory +) on the collection library trader/for sale. Of course, many of you did not know that my previous listings were items I had more than one of. Now, everything; even the ones I only have 1 (one) of will be listed. Please know; none of these are from my personal collection. One more important point while searching for chips on my CL site; there are two settings for viewing my chips. One is a simply a long, long list of pictures and descriptions. Two is by Country/City/State/Casino alphabetical. You may request to change this at any time. And when you do I will leave it on that setting for a couple of days, or whatever you request within reason, before I change to help another chipper’s request.
Follow This Collection Library Link To Approximately +/- 4500 Trader Chips >>>: http://www.collectionlibrary.com/Index.asp?EvApp=mls.5117&sPageName=MyTraders
This will cause more work for me, and along with that will be the possibility of more errors, and chances for items to slip through the cracks. So, I apologize in advance for the times I do not clear off a listing after it has been sold. Also, on the other side of coin, there will be times I will find a very nice item that I had forgot to put on the “Collection Library” when I first got it. And now I am listing it just when you started looking for it.
*On the subject of trading, please know: When you spot something on my CL Trader/For Sale list that you really want, I need to get something that I can put into my collection, also; or it will be a cash sale. Because, to take in trade something I will in turn have to sell, (that is already in my collection) requires me to work twice as hard to complete the original transaction.
The total amount of chips listed on this site as traders and for sale are approximately 4500. This of course will fluctuate up and down, however this number should afford most collectors looking for a piece to put in their collection at least an opportunity to see a few chips not often offered.
Thanks for taking your time to read over this post, Reggie
*Please read thoroughly
