John,
I agree with you. I hope the shill "thing" burns out also. I hate auctions! After all the discussion there are other aspects of auctions, just as bad as shill bidding, that have not been discussed. I for one DO NOT wish to discuss them. Auctions, like the ones on Ebay, do more damage to our hobby than good. It is my opinion buyers can do just as well buying chips from web sites of sellers. I'm done - where is the fork <g>? Best, Jim
