However, there is another issue which I have previously seen raised with respect to baseball cards -- and that is whether or not autographing an otherwise valuable collectible might not REDUCE its value.

I have no doubt that an celebrity autograph on a current chip increases the value of the chip and is desirable. But, would you have someone autograph a "Z" Nevada chip, even if it was someone associated in some way with the chip or the casino which issued it?

And if the answer to that question is no, where do you draw the line? Since you are the #1 man with respect to autographed chips, I'm sure you must have given this some thought. Others who collect such chips might be interested in hearing what you think.
