Waste of time John trying to help. If you look up Illegal Chips, Chicago Club on e-bay that seller had the chip up there for a year. Its not from Saratoga let alone worth $299.00 Its a UFC. I sent him a note some time ago to help him out and it fell on deaf ears. Caveat Emptor I guess. At least this seller took the picture down they pulled of the chip guide.
It's getting to be more like a garage sale site unless its one of the club members doing it the right way. I still say the club should start their own site that anyone can sell chips, collectables on etc on, keep the fee's reasonable and profits to the club. It would also help increase membership when people find out about the site. E-bay is getting out of site with 15% commission between pay pal and the e-bay Vig! On top of that there is sales tax for buyers in most cases. So if someone wants to get $500.00 for a chip that is worth that the seller takes a hit $75.00 and the buyer pays up to $50.00 sales tax depending what state they are in.... Thats around a $125.00 out the window with out listing or reserve fee's if applicable. Keep on Chippin ! Doug
