Good Day! We will be going down to our own Florida Keys for this anniversary trip. First night in Marathon and second night in Key West, and once again sampling some of the local fare, such as; Sloppy Joe’s, Hard Rock; or Margaritaville etc. Over the 7 mile bridge and dozens of other bridges all the way to mile marker O. Here’s hoping no big winds come blowing through the channels.
As you can see by the listings of new arrival’s I have acquired a few more chips very serious pieces for somebody’s collection. Especially, for the small town Nevada collector.

1 Page of California Chips in one format or another (on Saturday’s – when I have them)
1 Page of Cheap Chips (on Saturday) whenever I can find enough strays to put the pages together.
Daily Harvest Story (Either Personal or Guest Author) except on Sunday’s.
Every Saturday: A message to the CB Readers; the best way to stay tuned with my changes and add on’s to my inventory.
On every Saturday a “SPOTLIGHTED SPECIAL FEATURE CHIP(S)” 52 of ‘em, one every week
Sunday: Will probably be a day of rest.
1) Remember I ship via United States Post Office (USPS) so by buying more than one chip you will most definitely save you money. Try to remember I have a hold service; by shipping several chips you save.
2) I trade, and yes this over the last few years trading has lost it popularity, however it still is the best way to save money in this hobby. And yes a trade/cash combo works, too!
3) A third way, tried and true; is to send me a listing, short list or larger list and make me an offer. I may make a counter offer, but know this; it still will result in a considerable savings.
4) Here are various ways to create cash discounts:
a) To get at least a 10% discount spend at least $100 (single chip or a total of $100)
b) To get padded envelope shipments be a regular customer with hold service.
c) Over $100 sales will require a bit of negotiations.

I would like to take a few moments on the word offer(s) and to the occasional appearance of this word in my pages. Most folks are cognizant of the meaning and how it applies when a price is not provided at the end of a listing.
However, there may be a few of you that do not. It might be because you are new to the hobby or you are used to other businesses or hobbies that treat it differently.
To me and I may be wrong, but it means:
• A price you may have previously seen, recently.
• A price based on scarcity or rarity.
• A price based on demand
• Not a lowball price to see what flies
• If you are not sure, it is better to just ask for at least the last price it was sold; if the seller has this price he will respond accordingly.
*Please know, if you are interested in one of my higher priced items, chips or sets, and want to negotiate a lower price, you must consider the fact that I have real money invested in this chip or group chips. I will try to work with you no matter what the circumstance may be.
If anyone has any better points applicable to this subject; please let me know, and I will include them in this note. Sincerely Reggie
