THIS IS CORRECT; EACH AND EVERY POD I WILL HAVE A CHIP THAT WILL BE BELOW VALUE OR FACE. THE ONLY CATCH TO THIS DEAL IS YOU WILL BE CHARGED A DOLLAR FOR SHIPPING; FOR EACH AND EVERY LOSS LEADER PURCHASE, NO HOLD SERVICE…OH AND THERE IS ONE MORE THING; 1ST EMAIL IN MY IN BOX GETS THEIR REQUEST CHIP FROM THE “LOSS LEADER” FEATURE.
MY PRICES WILL FLUCTUATE TREMENDOUSLY. I MAY NOT FIGURE OUT WHAT I AM GOING TO FEATURE (BTW THE FEATURE CHIP HAS BEEN DISCONTINUED) UNTIL IT IS TIME FOR THE POD TO BE PUBLISHED.
I AM HOPING IT WILL BE MORE LIKE THE “VERY VERY CHEAP CHIPS” THAT I DISPLAY FROM TIME TO TIME. THIS WILL BE MORE DEPENDABLE, YOU CAN PLAN ON CHECKING IN JUST TO SEE WHAT HE IS ALMOST GIVING AWAY TODAY. (BUT DO IT EARLY) LOL. AND THANKS FOR PUTTING UP WITH ME

Yawn! This big ass casino and hotel just look as out of place in this part of the world as a Rolls-Royce on a dirt road.
Nice enough, for sure. I guess if you live in California, and want to run up rewards on your Total Rewards Card to earn a trip to Las Vegas, this would be the place to go. Or it's a good for a Staycation for San Diegans.
Lost my $15 Pai Gow... but scored a G.O. chip with the buy-in at the table.

CHER-AE-HEIGHTS CASINO IS LOCATED IN THE GREAT NORTH WEST OF CALIFORNIA. IT IS ON HIGHWAY 101 JUST SOUTH OF THE OF TRINIDAD STATE BEACH AND SOUTH OF TRINIDAD.
WE ARE ON OUR ONE MONTH VACATION PRIOR TO OUR WEDDING IN LAKE TAHOE. THE YEAR IS 2006. WE ARE IN OUR RV, AND ARE ENJOYING ALL THE SCENIC BEAUTY THAT THE NORTH END OF CALIFORNIA HAS TO OFFER. SHORTLY AFTER TAKING OFF FROM LOLETA, CA WE FOUND THE CHER-AE-HEIGHTS. THERE WAS A BIT OF TRICKY DRIVING UP TO THE CASINO FROM THE FREEWAY, BUT WE MADE IT AND HAD BREAKFAST THERE BEFORE WE GOT INTO THE HAVESTING MODE.
THIS CASINO WAS OF MEDIUM SIZE, THEY ACTUALLY HAD TWO TABLES OF BLACKJACK OPEN AND 3 DEALERS ROTATING IN OUT OF THE PIT. IN CALIFORNIA THE INDIANS PRETTY MUCH MAKE UP THEIR OWN RULES ON SELLING CHIPS FROM THE CAGE. THIS CASINO WOULD NOT SELL THEM FROM THE CAGE. SO, IT WAS TO THE BLACK JACK TABLE I GO AND NANCY TO THE MACHINE OF HER CHOICE “KITTY LITTER”, DON’T ASK.
I HAD ALL THE CURRENT CHIPS FROM THIS CASINO IN MY COLLECTION ALREADY, SO THIS WAS TO FILL UP AN INVENTORY VOID. WHILE PLAYING BLACK JACK WITH I BELIEVE AN 8 DECK SHOE, I HAD HIT TWO TIMES BACK TO BACK BLACKJACKS, THEY HAD A PROMOTION ON AT THAT TIME AND THEY GAVE ME 5- 43mm $5 NCV’s AND ONE $25 NCV SAME SIZE FOR THESE TWO HITS. PLEASE SEE THE LINK TO THE CHIP GUIDE TO SEE WHAT I AM TALKING ABOUT. THESE WERE QUITE POPULAR. I WISH I COULD HAVE WON MORE OF THESE, AND I DID BUY ENOUGH TABLE CHIPS …REGGIE[/Ab] http://www.themogh.org/cg_chip2.php?id=CATRCA

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

• I like 'em dirty! Adds character.
• I clean my own chips in my collection as I see fit. I don't clean traders. I leave that decision for the new owner.
• I don't clean my chips or my traders.
• Don't clean worn chips. Worn chips that are spotless look unnatural and unattractive.
• Don't clean chips that you intend to trade or sell, let the new owner decide if they would like the chip to be cleaned.
• I don't clean used chips, other than to take off the big globs. For my collection, I currently live by the philosophy that I can always clean them later, but I can never put the history back on. I have lots of chips "awaiting a decision."
• Not all chips are created equal. Some old chips should be cleaned. Can even remove light cigarette burns.
________________________________________
• Worn chips
• Very old or expensive chips
• Chips with paper inserts
• Chips that are very dirty
• Chips that are of a light or bright color, like sky blue or orange, show dirt more readily than darker colors. Even if they are not very dirty, sometimes you cannot remove all the dirt from a light or bright colored chip and you are left with an odd looking chip.
________________________________________
• Use a very soft bristled toothbrush.
• Let experts clean very old or expensive chips.
• A pencil eraser is good for removing scuffs and crud from old chips.
• These cleaners have been reported to have good results cleaning chips: mild dishwashing detergent, Armor All Multi-Purpose Cleaner, Quick'n'Brite, Sterling Magic.
• The trick seems to be to find something that will dissolve the greasy deposits that accumulate on well used chips, without removing any ink, or leeching moisture from the chip. Quick'n'Brite is a thick paste, and does not seem to encourage any moisture transfer, while doing an excellent job of breaking down the greasy gunk. I just stick the chip in the bucket edgewise, rotate it a few time to coat the chip thoroughly, wait about 15-30 seconds, then wipe the chip down with a washcloth. It's revolting how dirty that washcloth gets after only a few chips.
• I use Sterling Magic full strength with a toothbrush. I use no water and just wipe clean with a cloth. It has never, never, ever dried the chip out or caused it to fade. If the chip has a hot stamp, I don't use the toothbrush on that part, I just dab a little on with my finger and gently wipe it off with the cloth.
• I clean virtually all of my chips except those that come straight from the cage and have never seen play. I have also experienced no fading or drying out. The pink goop (Sterling Magic) is great stuff.
• I've been using Armor All Multi-Purpose Cleaning with fantastic results for the past year, no damage to chip, luster and shine are still there...and it cleans the chip. Don't use any other Armor All product i.e., tire cleaner, window, bug, etc.
• Waterless hand cleaner, non abrasive, with lanolin and a bath of johnson baby oil will restore the luster. Give it a bath of oil, let soak for an hour or so on a bath towel turn once after a while wipe dry. Regular mineral oil is too oily
• I use a soft toothbrush & Fantastik. I spray both sides of the chip & clean the dirt off with the toothbrush & then rinse under warm water. I dry the chip with a paper towel. I then use a VERY small amount of mineral oil (which brings out the true colors of the chip which may have been lost over time or due to cleaning) rubbed between two fingers & work it into the chip. That entire process should not take more than a minute. I'll then let the chip dry for 24 hours on one side & turn it over & let dry for another 24 hours before storing the chip.
• I used a soft children's tooth brush and window cleaner. Hot stamps will turn from gold to silver, so they get covered with my thumb and I only clean the mold designs. Chipco, Paulson graphics BJ and others of like design are much more durable.
• I don't clean many of my chips, but when I do I use Amway's L.O.C. (Liquid Organic Cleaner and a baby's tooth brush (much softer than a regular soft toothbrush.) I put a few drops of L.O.C. on the chip and brush very lightly. I so this to remove the surface dirt. If the chip is extremely dirty I generally leave it alone. It sometimes looks better dirty.
• Try Johnson & Johnson baby gel instead of oils to restore the luster. I've been told this by a noted chip collector and restorer.
• Crest and seals - Clean with a 3M scouring pad or wet/dry sandpaper. Then bring back coloring with Johnson & Johnson Baby Gel. (Note: the 3M scouring pad is non-abrasive, it is sold for cleaning dishes.)
________________________________________
• Don't clean the hot stamp with a toothbrush, only gently rub the cleaner in with your fingers.
• Never use anything abrasive to clean your chips.
• Don't use steam to clean clay chips, the steam will heat the chip until it softens and will warp.
• I did ruin a batch of old clays once by putting them in the washing machine with bleach and Tide, it messed them up pretty bad and was very loud to boot.
• I find tying them up in an old T-shirt and running them through the washing machine cycle usually does the trick. However, for that really tough grime that gets lodged down in the bottom of the cane in the hat&cane or the crevices in a small key mold, there's really nothing like a good stiff wire brush and some elbow grease. A little vaseline to bring out the colors when you're done, and Viola! (This is meant as a joke.)
• Do not clean a hot stamped chip with a toothbrush, instead gently rub with your fingers
• I have had very good luck with Sterling's Magic cleaner. However, when I cleaned some old Mint roulettes (this is the series with the small crown mold and a round white inlay) I ended up removing a thin clear plastic cap that covers the inlay.
• Once I was cleaning (I think a Diamond Jim) inlay chip with what I usually use -- dove hand soap bar, toothbrush pared down and warm water, and water got under and discolored the inlay. I think it must have happened because the inlay was weak/lifting some/damaged.
• Once I really screwed up. I had a lot of dried out, faded embossed style poker chips (maybe the Golfer wearing knickers) I often rub chips like these with sewing machine oil (or mineral oil, or Vitamin E liquid). I'd apply the oil and rub it off right away with a paper towel.....But
this time I left all the chips in a pot on mineral oil overnight, and in the morning a found them practically ruined. As I remember, the main
problem was that rings and crescents were left on the chips where one chip rested on another.

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

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

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
HI FOLKS JUST A REMINDER THAT I HAVE SEVERAL OF THESE SETS OF MY PERSONAL CHIPS AVAILABLE AND FOR SALE. THERE ARE FOUR AND YOU MAY VIEW THEM BELOW.
THEY ARE $5 FOR THE SET SHIPPED, AND I WILL DONATE 100% OF THE $5 TO DAVID SPRAGG AND THE CHIPBOARD. JUST EMAIL ME DIRECT. REGGIE
