My first interaction with Thunder Snow was a couple of months ago, when you posted your auctions to The Chipboard.

I clicked on your link and looked at some of your auctions. I noticed that several of your Non-Nevada chips were listed as "Nevada". I politely asked you to check your descriptions, and correct the ones that were wrong. I did screen shots of a few of them, as examples. I could have ranted about "Click Bait" and "Scammers"...but I treated you with respect.

Thunder Snow's response was that the corrections were made, and if I found others I could send them over. That irritated me, because I'm not the ebay police. I simply thought that you made an honest mistake and would want to correct it. ALSO...when I continued looking at your auctions there were AT LEAST a dozen other auctions that weren't corrected...including some from the same casinos that I'd already pointed out as being Non-Nevada casinos. (For example, I gave you a screenshot of a chip from "The Pass", which isn't a Nevada chip. That auction was corrected, but other chips from "The Pass" were still listed as Nevada chips).

Your response to me, which you've since deleted, explained that it was o.k. to have incorrect listings because your customers knew what they were buying. To me, that wasn't OK but I didn't bash you about it.

A couple of other chippers joined the thread...to try to help you understand. NO ONE was rude to you, NO ONE made fun of you, NO ONE insulted you. I bring this up as a reminder that YOU aren't perfect, either...none of us are. But you were treated with respect.

IMHO your random bashing of The Chip Guide is uncalled for. My old boss used to say "When you point your finger at someone else, it leaves three fingers pointing back at you!"

I come to the chipboard for the enjoyment of my hobby. Over the years there have been many times that there have been outbreaks of negativism...sometimes from trolls, sometimes from ornery chippers. I usually ignore those posts/posters...but your post had a positive-sounding subject line, so I fell for your click-bait. My bad.
