Bad luck collecting story

When the casinos around Tucson first opened I drove there to collect the new chips and play some poker. I did not have any luck at poker so I only picked up two of these Desert Diamond five dollar chips. You can check the Chip Guide to see they were pulled soon after my visit. A couple years later I sold one of the chips for $75 and that was giving a friend a discount. I had better luck while playing at Gila River and came home with a stack of their first issue five dollar chips, but there was not much interest in them and now they sit in my trade case and the casino says tough luck in redeeming them sucker.
