So I see that Sun State Coin and Liver wasn’t able to get $9.99 for her Arizona Charlie chip. Some have opined that if we let the parasitic slab companies leech onto our hobby we’re going to have new paticipants in chipping. This is the kind of new blood that IGC is going to attract. People who have already bought into the convention of slabbed objects. Do you think this AZ Charlie is worth $10? Sun State does and she thinks that “encaspsulated” chips must be. Grading costs $10 so that’s where slabbed pricing starts in the marketplace. Will that be true in chip collecting’s future? It will if you find virtue in the toleration of slabbing.
