Terry; The solution is to issue enough chips that would satisfy the immediate demand. A 250-300 issue $25 chip in A.C. would probably sell out just as quick, but the "lowest ever issue" hype would be negated.

I simply don't see any positive benefit to the casino to issue a $25 LE of 100 chips... when they could sell 250 to 300 just as easily. What does Trump Marina gain if the chip they sold yesterday at $25, brings $200 the next day on Ebay? Is all the negative publicity worth it to the casino? Chip collectors are the casino's customers. Why would any business want to encourage alienating a segment of their customers?
