I was a daily poster to this site about 6 months ago and for several months prior to taking a trip to Las Vegas in April.

This site was loaded with lots of information. It was quite enjoyable to post and get feedback.

The week after coming back from Las Vegas I posted a list of traders chips. The chips were all from Las Vegas except a couple.

Well, long story short I got no response to my post. I had nothing anyone wanted to trade for. I just assumed that most everyone had all the Las Vegas $1 they needed.

Sadly I had 2 traders for each of the 17 casinos or so that got chips from.

That was the disappiontment. I have never been really good at selling on Ebay so I didn't think I had much of a chance to sell them.

I put them away and forgot about them until about a month ago.

At that time I posted the list again. Yet again I got no responses.

So, here is my dilema. I am limited on funds. I would like to trade the chips I have for ones I don't have. I just don't know how to go about it.

Also, where can I go to get chips at face value so I can add to my collection.

I can buy from people on Ebay but I only see sales for single chips. If I buy a chip I would like to get 2 or 3 at a time so I can have traders.

I feel I could do better as a trader/collector if I wasn't so limited with what I had for traders and chips period.

Again, I am at a loss on what way to go about trading the chips I have or good ways to get chips. With such a small collection and traders that everyone seems to have I need major help in getting my collection going.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for reading me rant. I really do enjoy this site. I guess I just wish there were more newbie traders about so I could trade with them.
