Hi Joe. I have a super limited list of chips I'm looking for. You identified 3 chips I was looking for but didn't bring them to the show. I did ask you what you were asking for them and you handed me your business card and said to email you for a discussion after the show. So, it's not that I was opposed to buying from you before. You simply didn't have anything I was looking to acquire (which is fine). I subsequently found one of the 3 for sale at the show and bought it. I didn't intend my comments to be taken as a threat. I don't think you're begging me to buy and you and Sarah seem to be doing quite well, and I'm glad for you in that regard. I'm simply choosing to spend my money with those who choose to be pleasant to other collectors. I can wait for the other 2 chips to show up elsewhere (or never get them). It's not like I'm ever going to complete my collection of $5 Nevada chips. It's literally an impossible task (I think) so no single chip (or chips) are going to keep me from enjoying what I have and the people that enjoy this hobby along with me. I really do hope that, at some point, you have a change of heart and keep comments that are less than helpful to yourself or between you and the villains in your life. Best of luck with your business ventures. I hope to continue giving you a friendly handshake at all future events. -- barry
