Extra! Extra! Reggie’s Weekly Note & Chip Tip

Hi Everyone; We are now living in the “state of you can’t get there from here”. God help us! A considerable amount of people have died due to this once in 500 years storm that ravaged our beautiful west coast of Florida. Nancy and I have thanked the Lord for sparing us, often, throughout this terrible storm. Our rescue and recovery people are doing a fantastic job, helping people. We already have some of the bridges repaired. We will come back from this; and again, thanks to everyone wishing Nancy and I the best. Reggie

Anyone that has any spare any amount of used 30 pocket plastic sheets please, get in touch with me.

Please visit my Montana chip collection on the Chip Query, to see if you have a chip (traders-pages 1-13) that I can use or any traders of mine you can use.

Postings that could be done each day I post:

3 Single CA chips
2 Single NV chips
1 Single Other States etc.
1 Single MT chip
1 Set of Chips
1 Postcard (5 on Sat.)
2 California Featured Chips (Scarce & Rare)
2 Nevada Featured Chips (Better Chips)
1 Page of California Chips (as often as I can)
1 Page of Cheap Chips page whenever I can find enough strays to put the pages together.
Every Saturday: A message to the CB Readers
And on every Saturday another “SPOTLIGHTED SPECIAL FEATURE CHIP(S)”

Years ago while I was doing “My Page-A-Day” I would publish one of these “Chipper Tips”. I am going to try to include one each Saturday, up date it if I feel it needs it. Hopefully, this will still help a few of us remember to do the right thing when the subject matter is in question and folks if I am wrong PLMK, sincerely…Reggie

CHIP TIPS FOR CHIP COLLECTORS

THOUGHTS ON TRADING


I AM A DAILY READER, A DAILY POSTER & SUPPORTER OF THE CHIPBOARD. I HAVE SEEN ALL SORTS OF APPROACHES TO THE ART OF TRADING CHIPS. HOWEVER, THAT BEING SAID; HERE IS MY OBSERVATION ON WHY PEOPLE ARE NOT AND DO NOT DO MUCH TRADING:
• TRADING REQUIRES MORE THAN AN AVERAGE AMOUNT OF INITIATIVE. AND PLENTY OF FLEXIBILITY WITH YOUR PRICING.
• TRADING REQUIRES A LARGE SELECTION OF ITEMS TO MAKE A TRADE, AND THAT MEANS MORE THAN A 100 COMMONS.
• WHEN YOU APPROACH ANOTHER CHIPPER FOR A TRADE, YOU MUST BE KNOWLEDGEABLE OF WHAT HIS INTERESTS ARE. IT WILL DO YOU NO GOOD TO ASK ANOTHER TRADER TO TRADE FOR ITEMS THEY DO NOT EVEN COLLECT.
• REMEMBER THE USPS IS THE ONLY ONE THAT MAKES OUT ON SMALL TIME TRADES SO IT IS ADVISEABLE TO MAKE AT LEAST A 5-6 CHIP TRADE WHEN MAKING A TRADE.
• TRADING POLICIES OF EACH INDIVIDUAL IS OFTEN QUITE DIFFERENT. I HAVE A POLICY FOR TRADING, AND WILL GLADLY SHARE WITH ALL THAT ASKS.
• CHIP SHOWS ARE ONE OF THE BEST PLACES TO FIND TRADERS AND A TRADE SESSION. • ROUND ROBINS ARE ANOTHER WAY OF TRADING, THOUGH IT DOES NOT APPEAL TO ME.
• I HAVE BEEN TRADING REGULARLY FOR OVER FIFTEEN YEARS. I HAVE HAD THOUSANDS OF TRADES OVER THESE FIFTEEN YEARS.

* I will trade Postcards, CA, MT or NV chips for MT chips.

*Please know that the single biggest reason some people do not like to trade with any one individual, by far; is because one of them over values his chips. In other words his chips are much more valuable than yours. Just sayin'...reg
