Possible New Direction for the Hobby

Today we talk about something that came into conversation this morning with Emilio Soto and I as we were talking about Brass Elephant chips and then the recent find of Adolfo's casino chips out of California. The idea was that many people are building sets now a days and there are still those people that are collecting "sample sets" (one of each denomination or style of chip from each casino). I've seen plenty of the set builders that have singles collections as well, so the idea was that there are these harder to find chips coming out and it's going to peak the interest of many people trying to get these chips. Will it be that chips will be traded more often than sold to try and fill in these final spots for the sample sets instead of selling chips to buy the missing piece with cash? That's a possibility and I'm sure that many would be open to this or something similar. I actually like the idea because it keeps chips moving in the hobby and they aren't locked up, but I'd love to hear what others think! Hope you enjoy!
