Reggie, first let me say I made the harvest, at least the ones that were available, there were no GO chips. The place overall was a disappointment. I left home at 5 PM Friday got there at 7:30. walked in. Everything I saw looked familiar to Diamond Jacks. They had a line set up just inside to help out with the slot cards, since it was fairly short got in it, I noticed they had the red and blue level playing card, there are 4 levels, found out my drivers license was expired and had been for 2 months, but the person behind the counter accepted my retired military ID card, as I was getting my card, mentioned I was a collector and if possible could I also get a blank one of each of the 2 she had, that was one of the good things about my visit. Then I made my way to the cashier cage to check on the chips told cashier what I was looking for, at that point one of the casino hosts assisted me by taking me to a blackjack table, not enough $1 there, but he stayed with me and then took me to roulette table to buy the $1 chips, now that was a pleasant experience. As I said when I walked in I thought I was in Diamond Jacks. with the exception of name change, chips and player cards and a few employees everything else is the same all the same slot machines. Oh by the way went next door to the Ameristar, picked a couple of 2.50’s, hoping I could get the variety with Vicksburg, MS on the bottom edge, but they both were the ones with Vickburg, MS up off the lower edge and to the left of the $ sign. Also I forgot to tell you I won enough at Waterview to pay for the chips. came home with $3.45 in my pocket more than I left home with, if you think any of this if worthy of a harvest story, please feel free to edit and use.

REMEMBER THE THEME SONG FROM CHEERS? “WHERE EVERYONE KNOWS YOUR NAME…” THAT IS THE WAY IT IS FOR ME AT THE “TRACK”. THE FACILITY WHICH INCLUDES A NICE LONG RACING SEASON PLUS OFF SEASON BETTING IS ABOUT 10 MINUTES FROM MY DOOR TO THE DOOR TO THE CARD ROOM ON THE SECOND FLOOR.
AS YOU WOULD GUESS, I HAVE EVERY CHIP THAT THIS TRACK HAS PRODUCED; AT LEAST I THINK I DO. IF YOU ARE MISSING SOMETHING FROM THIS VENUE PLEASE DROP ME A LINE I WILL GET IT FOR YOU.
THE CARD ROOM HAS 26 TABLES FOR POKER, AND ON THE JACK POT DAYS (WHEN THEY PAY FOR HIGH HANDS; A MINIMUM OF $500 EVERY HALF HOUR) THESE TABLES ARE USUALLY ALL FILLED ESPECIALLY DURING “SEASON”. NOW THAT I MENTIONED THE WORD SEASON, I SHOULD PROBABLY EXPLAIN IT. SEASON IS FROM OCTOBER TO MARCH EVERY YEAR. THAT IS WHEN EVERYTHING DOWN HERE DOUBLES: TRAFFIC, PEOPLE, WAITING TIME FOR A TABLE AT THE TRACK…ETC.
ONE OF THE DEALERS AT THE TRACK USED TO DEAL TO ME IN OCEANSIDE, CA AT OCEANS 11 WHEN I STILL LIVED IN CARDIFF BY THE SEA. ONE OF THE DEALERS USED TO DEAL AT SKY UTE IN COLORADO, AND IS A PARTIME CHIP COLLECTOR (ONLY COLORADO). ONE OF THE DEALERS IS FROM FOX WOODS, HIS NAME IS “JOSE”; BUT I CALL HIM “HOSE B”!!! AND THEN THERE IS JERMEY, WHO HAS PUSHED ME MORE POTS AND JACK POTS THAN MOST OF THE OTHER DEALERS, HE WOULD BE MY FAVORITE.
FOUR YEARS AGO THE CITY VOTED FOR THE OK TO HAVE SLOTS HERE AT THE TRACK, BUT SO FAR; THE SEMINOLES HAVE BLOCKED THE STATE GAMING COMM. FROM OKing THIS.
AND I WOULD BE REMISS IF I DID NOT MENTION JUAN AND CHRISTIE (HUSBAND AND WIFE) THE MANAGERS OF THE FACILITY. JUAN HAS DONE ME SEVERAL FAVORS OVER THE YEARS AND CHRISTIE HAS NOT…LOL
THERE IS NO REASON TO ASK IF I HAVE ENOUGH OF THESE CHIPS…REGGIE

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.
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. ( THERE ARE VERY FEW THAT I HAVE DUPLICATES THEY ARE FOR SALE AND WILL HAVE A PRICE ALONG WITH THEIR TITLES). THAT BEING SAID; SHOULD YOU JUST HAVE TO HAVE ONE OF THESE BEAUTIES THAT IS NOT PRICED, FEEL FREE TO MAKE ME AN HONEST OFFER.…REGGIE
• 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
POST CARDS FROM NEVADA
SET OF THE DAY
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

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
