for trade for sale POD - CANADIAN ONES for sale for trade

Good Day Chippers, this is a sweet and sad day for me...when I finish a cycle. I have posted 42 different POD's over the last 5 months. When I start in early July again with a new cycle it will be 58 different POD's. And yes the POD's will be slightly smaller some cases. I am going to try to streamline the Page of the Day in the next cycle as well. Today I offer you chips from our neighbors to the north of me, way north; Canada. I have nice elusive pieces in this group. Thank you for all the orders, trades and buys over the last 5 months. Thank you for opening this post May 26, 2018. Reggie

CHIP TIPS FOR CHIP COLLECTORS

TRADE SESSION

Hello Chippers, should you find yourself planning a trip to South West Florida. Please add a small trade session into the mix…would love to have a trade session with anyone that is in the Naples-Bonita Springs-Estero-Ft Myers area. Please give me a heads up, and a little warning and we will exchange phone numbers prior to the approximate date.
Of course, I am mostly interested in recent stuff, I only have a few high powered older chips to trade. But I have well over 4,500 different chips available for trade or sale.
LMK the dates and windows of opportunity for a little sit down trade session.

A GUEST AUTHOR’s HARVEST STORY

The Riviera (Florida)

By:James Eric Freedner

Here’s one I don't see on the Chipguide Florida page: The
illegal Riviera that was on one of the Sunny Isles near
Hallandale.
Red chip, 3 light blue inserts, hot-stamped "R" with
an odd hearts-and-squares mold.
The Riviera holds a special place in my memory: it was the
first casino I ever saw! I must have been about 6 years
old and visiting with my grandmother and grandfather, who
took my parents and I from their home in Hollywood to Miami
Beach via A1A. And we passed this creepy boarded-up old
building where the road going down the peninsula was fenced
off with a big chain between posts. My grandparents said
it was a casino that had been owned by gangsters, and it was
now deserted.
The building stood for quite some years (wonder who paid the
property taxes?) but became damaged in various hurricanes,
and by around 1964, I think, it was torn down. Don't
know what's there now as we moved from Florida in 1965.
Around 55 years passed, during which time I forgot the name of the
old casino, but eventually I took an interest in collecting
chips and decided to research it. "Riviera" it
was, same name but presumably not ownership, as another
Riviera Hotel in Miami Beach.
And when this chip came up on eBay, I decided to bid on it – and won!
A "red" chip would today be a $5 gaming piece, but I
don't know how it was played in the old days.
Reggie
- don't know if this counts as a "harvesting
story" but you are welcome to use it if you
wish.

PERSONAL HARVESTING STORIES

AMELIA BELLE CASINO AMELIA, LOUISIANA

By:RICHARD “REGGIE” GUMMER

AFTER LEAVING THE NEW ORLEANS AREA ON A TRIP TO HOUSTON, WE STOPPED AT A “REAL” RIVERBOAT CASINO CALLED THE AMELIA BELLE. IT IS LOCATED IN THE HEART OF THE OFF SHORE OIL RIG (LAY DOWN) INDUSTRY. I CAN ONLY IMAGINE HOW MANY RIGGERS LOST THEIR ENTIRE PAYCHECK TO THIS LITTLE RIVER BOAT.
IT HAD BEEN RAINING SINCE WE LEFT HARVEY, LA AND WHEN WE FINALLY BOARDED THE AMELIA BELLE IT WAS STILL RAINING. THERE WAS NOT A SOUL IN THE CASINO, EXCEPT MAYBE 2 OTHER PEOPLE THAT WERE NOT EMPLOYEES, EVEN THOUGH IT WAS A LITTLE BEFORE 12 NOON IT STILL FELT A LITTLE EEIRE. AFTER INQUIRING AT THE CAGE; IF I COULD BUY CHIPS AND WAS REFUSED, I WAS THEN TOLD TO BUY THEM FROM THE BLACK JACK TABLE. THINGS WERE STARTING TO FEEL A LITTLE SHAKY, EVEN THOUGH THERE WAS NO ONE IN THE HOUSE THE BODY LANGUAGE OF THE 1 DEALER, AND THE PIT BOSS READING HIS MORNINGS PAPER APPEARED TO SAY LEAVE US ALONE. BUT, AS YOU KNOW ALL MASTER HARVESTERS WITH THE RED BELTS DO NOT EVER GIVE UP. I TALKED TO NANCY TOLD HER WHAT I WANTED IN CASE I STRUCK OUT OR ONLY GOT A FEW. THAT WAS A GOOD THING TO DO, BECAUSE AFTER I DID MY HARVEST OF WHAT I NEEDED, I MADE A CALL TO A FELLOW CHIPPER, AND ASKED IF HE WANT A SMALL SUPPLY, HE DID AND NANCY DID THE FOLLOW UP BUY. WE LEFT HAPPY BUT STILL GOT WET ON THE WAY TO THE CAR. THIS TIME I DID NOT BUY ENOUGH…REGGIE

THE POD JULY 2018


I AM HAPPY TO REPORT THAT THE POD IN THE NEW FORMAT OF 4+/- PAGES PER DISPLAY, CONTINUES TO BE WORKING OUT QUITE WELL. THE CURRENT POD CYCLE WILL END DURING THE LATER PART OF MAY (MAY 26th). AT THIS TIME I HAVE DECIDED TO NOT PUBLISH ANY POD’s IN JUNE 2018. A FEW MAJOR ADJUSTMENTS WILL BE MADE ON THE NEXT CYCLE WHICH WILL COMMENCE SOMETIME IN EARLY JULY 2018.

THE FIRST POD OF THE NEW CYCLE WILL BE THE INTRODUCTION OF THE TYPES OF CHIPS. AND I WILL TRY TO SPRUCE IT UP A BIT. I WILL ADD THE ODD DENOMINATIONS PAGE. IT WILL SHOW YOU DIFFERENT ODD DENOMINATIONS. THIS WAS THE INTENT OF THE INTRODUCTION PAGE ALL ALONG. STARTING IN JULY 2018 THE PAGE OF THE DAY WILL GET SMALLER.

THE SET OF THE DAY HAS GROWN TO ABOUT 160 + SETS VARYING FROM 2 CHIP TO 12 CHIP IN SIZE. I HAVE ADDED SETS FROM MY BROKEN STATES AND ISLANDS. THE FANTASY SETS I ADDED ARE PRICED BELOW MY ORIGINAL COST; AND DID YOU KNOW THAT ALL OF THE SETS ARE ON A REVERSE AUCTION, AND WILL RESULT IN PRICES BELOW MY ORIGINAL OUTLAY?

THERE WILL BE SOME CHANGES AND NEW TYPES OF PAGES INCLUDING (1) TWO PAGES OF THE NON DENOMINATIONAL CALIFORNIA CHIPS FROM THE 1930’S UP, (2) A PAGE OF 5c & 10c CHIPS , (3) CHIP OF THE YEAR (COTY) PAGE WILL BE A POD BY ITSELF, (4) IL-IN-NJ-PA WILL BE 2 POD’S NOW, (5) MT-ND-OR-SD WILL BE 2 POD’S NOW, (6) ONE PAGE OF $10 & 20 CHIPS, (7) ONE PAGE OF $25 & $100 CHIPS, (8) CALIFORNIA ONES HAVE GROWN AND WILL BE 4 POD’s INSTEAD OF 3, (9) SMALL STATES WILL ONCE AGAIN BE BY THEMSELVES; AND THAT IS MOST OF THE CHANGES.

A TOTALLY NEW FEATURE I AM GOING TO IMPLEMENT THIS JULY, IS FACE VALUE $1’s. ONE RESULT OF DOING THIS WILL BE SMALLER POD’S; AND CAUSE THE FACE VALUE $1’S & $5’S TO BE AT LEAST 5-8 PAGES PER POD.

THE GUEST HARVEST STORY AUTHORS, AND MY HARVEST STORIES HAVE CONTINUED TO BE POPULAR. THE GUEST HARVEST STORIES HAVE INCREASED TO OVER 40 AND IS STILL GROWING.

THE POSTCARD FEATURES WILL BE DIS-CONTINUED FROM THE PAGE OF THE DAY IN THIS NEW CYCLE. THE SEPARATE POSTINGS OF MY NEVADA POSTCARDS WILL CONTINUE ON THE CHIP BOARD; THEY ARE EXTREMELY POPULAR.

THE NEWEST ITEM INSIDE THE POD IS THE “FEATURED STATE.” THESE ALL ARE FROM MY COLLECTION AND I WANT FIND A GOOD HOME FOR THEM. AT LEAST HALF OF THESE HAVE BEEN SOLD OR BROKEN UP FOR INVENTORY…OCCASIONALLY I WILL HAVE A SPECIAL SALE ON THEM; (24 HOUR SALE) THAT IS THE TIME TO PICK THEM OFF.

I DID SLOW DOWN ON THE LAST CYCLE; THE AMOUNT OF POD’S EACH WEEK TO POSTING ABOUT 2 PER WEEK. IN THE FUTURE IT WILL BE ABOUT 2 A WEEK OR EVEN LESS FREQUENT. I NO LONGER WILL DISPLAY UV OR MOLD VARIATIONS. IF YOU ARE INTO THAT; I WILL TAKE REQUESTS AND CHECK MY INVENTORY FOR WHAT VARIATION YOU ARE LOOKING FOR. THERE WILL NOT BE A PRE-POD ALERT NOTICE STARTING NEXT CYCLE.

I WILL TRY TO WRITE AN UP DATE OF THE “STATE OF THE POD” EACH CYCLE. THE LAST POD OF THIS CYCLE WILL BE MAY 26th.

THANKS FOR READING MY POD’S OVER THE PAST MONTHS, REGGIE

THANK YOU FOR READING MY POST TODAY; REGGIE
