You never know who is out there looking at this hobby and would want a collection as this- one that I say can not be duplicated today. A million might be big money to most in the hobby we know today but not to everyone in the world that will have a chance at this. Ebay is a powerful tool to reach global collectors, investors, etc.
Think back not too far in the past (maybe 7 or 8 years ago?) when a chip selling at $1,000 was big news! Now $10,000 is nothing! Tell us Mike, how much has a chip now been sold for- I know you know. After the convention in September when the sale takes place and chips have attracted more buyers, and values have skyrocketed further, who's to say they won't be over a million for the chips alone. I am not stating my opinion here on the value. That is for each person to decide who might be bidding.
