although I haven't had much luck trading on here

IMHO
Trading is subjective and there are guidelines to follow.BUT
bottom line is,.. if both parties are happy

1. post with real name/membership # (if you have a membership #)
people like to see that for confidence

2. go ahead and post the pic or scan of chips
(yes, more work involved ,but again,more confidence and chippers LOVE to LOOK at chips)

3.post PICs or list more detail about what your trading WANTS are
(rare $5 is ok but, be better to narrow the idea. ie Nevada only? Las Vegas only? USA only?)

the 3 above suggestions are my opinion only!

Keep in mind....next convention we plan to have education seminar based on "trading"
