1) It's a shame that some posters need to express their opinions is a way that's insulting to people that disagree with them.
2) Bill Borland was an interesting figure in our hobby. I never met him but his "Blue Book" was a pioneering work in a very embryonic hobby.
3) I collect "Borland Fakes", that is, those chips which resemble real chips (don't have closing dates, etc.). I would be very happy to acquire ones that I don't have. Send me your list of Borlands for sale. I probably ought to follow my own advice and make a check list of the ones I don't have.
4) The collection of "Borland Fakes" is very interesting. Mostly low denomination chips and No Cash Value chips. If Borland wanted to cheat collectors then he could have produced some real rarities. How about a $0.25 chip from The Vault? I know of one old time collector who claims that Borland made all his chips as samples hoping to sell to casinos. I don't know how true that is.
5) The Chip Rack, The ChipGuide and the Club Web Site all have information identifying "Borland Fakes." Maybe buying a fake is a cheap lesson for someone to use these resources and educate oneself. Maybe even express thanks to those collectors whose efforts produced those lists of Borland Fakes.
6) If you feel cheated because you bought a Borland fake that wasn't identified as such....well you're in luck. If you're a Club member and you bought it from a Club member I'm sure the Club will take action. If you're not a Club member then it's different. There are advantages to being a member.
7) Here's a photo of my collection of slabbed chips. My recollection is that I was given it by a friendly sales guy at the Palace Station show way back when. I don't collect slabbed chips but don't wish them banned. If slabbed chips are the future of the hobby then so be it.
