This chip is still bringing a decent amount of money based on the one current listing.

Unfortunately this kind of thing has happened to all of us at one time or another.

Sometimes I see what I believe te be a rare chip on eBay and snap it up only to find out the seller has 20 more of the same chip.

Other times I have waited and not bought only to find out that I missed my only chance to add to my collection.

There are 2 basic rules I try and follow that were taught to me a long time ago by a very wise collector.

1) If a chip looks brand new, chances are that there are 99 more just like it out there.

2) Buy only what you like and makes you happy and you will never be disappointed.

Not very consoling but like playing poker, you learn from every hand more than you knew the hand before.
