Dave, I personally think that the new chips service is the way to go, but one must shop around as the prices vary quite a bit. As a matter of fact, I think I heard one of our consistant participants to this board who lives in Las Vegas, uses a service as he feels it is just too much work going from casino to casino just to buy one chip. I'm sure I would do the same thing if I lived in Las Vegas, as I always use the valet (costing me a $1.00 tip) so it would only cost me another dollar to have someone else pick them up for me.

As important as price might be, the reliability and ethical makeup of the individual is just as important. I would be more than happy to recommend my supplier if you were to Email me. I not only trust him but will vouch for his honesty and ethics to the nth degree.
