Jim,
I agree with you on the ridiculous amount of "LE's" being issued, but the worst part is the "greed factor" we're seeing with the increase in denomonation of the LE chips. This year has seen a dramatic increase of $10, $25, and even $100 LE's!!!
If a casino wants to "commemmorate" a pizza kitchen opening, why not release NCV chips to advertise the event instead of trying to make a profit from the chip collectors.
Even my local Indian casino is issuing a 5 chip Collector Series set that is "stackable" with the last chip to be issued a $25 denomination New Years chip. There's more than one of my trading friends who just can't afford to get into $25 chips to complete the "stack".
