First, I am sure you are a good guy and I believe you have done more than I could ever do for the hobby. I remember you and have no bad thoughts about you at all.

Second, my only issue is with this set of chips. Your auction is fine, great even. Totally honest and above board. The problem generally comes later, during re-sale. You know, at some point, it is a strong probability that somewhere down the line that someone will buy one of these chips thinking it is something it is not. Given how many are out there at this point, I'm not sure it really matters anymore if you make one more, but it is one more possibility that someone can get burned. Imagine when you first started collecting, you paid some heavily inflated price for a newly made novelty chip worth about $1. How would you feel about the hobby?

It does not color my opinion of you in total, but I am surprised that you would not already know how chips like these have already fooled many buyers. That is why I made my comment. No other reason.
