CHIP TIPS FOR CHIP COLLECTORS

CHIP TRADING THE SHORT VERSION

10 QUICK POINTS

START WITH THE CHIP GUIDE QUERY

#1) Try to be an equal partner in the trade, do not make one party of the trade do all the work.
#2) I try not to do lateral trading. In other words; I do not like to trade any chips I only have one of for another chip I do not have any of; and I have it in my personal collection already.
#3) Commons for commons, Current table chips for current table chips, new racks for new rack.
#4) Denominations should be handled the same as commons, in most cases a $5 chip for a $5 chip.
#5) The obsolete group…these have to be traded based on the Guides valuation. And/or the asking price.
#6) It is always up to the two people that own the two chips that want to trade; to be satisfied with the trade. It is a trade when it is mutually acceptable to both parties.
#7) I prefer to trade with CCA members, because of the honesty of this group is impeccable. I do and have made trades with non-members.
#8)Try not to send severely nicked, damaged, or extremely dirty chips.
#9) A trading policy, is usually never the same with any two chip collectors, try to briefly explain your trading policy up front as soon as possible, in order to circumvent any surprises.
#10) Always let the trading partner know when you receive your chips.
