Well, you know that the $100's alone sell for about $5 each, the $25's are pretty non-existent, and there aren't really any quantities of the other denoms available either. It's not like I'm getting rich selling these, especially considering the premium I paid to put a set like this together not to mention all the time and effort involved. I don't think $3 a chip is so out there, especially since you rarely see any playable sets offered at all and in Mint Condition. Generally, I know what's going on with prices and availability for a lot of whats out there for as I'm on CT and ebay probably more than anyone here.
I owned and sold Vineyards, PNY's, Wyndhams, Dodge City, etc. along with most of the chips you see out in the market today and personally I feel that all of those pale in comparison to the Mirage Springs chips.
The sets I have for sale are definitely not for everyone. Just like Noel and other sellers who have chips that are not readily available everywhere or even on ebay, you get what you pay for. Well, I'm in no rush or need to sell. If they do, they do but to say that "I clearly do not want to sell" is pretty presumptuous and inaccurate... Anyway, if I do happen to sell, I'll do what I always do... just find something more expensive and hopefully something even better as the cycle goes...

He had all of those Mirage Springs chips for sale a yr ago or so when I had 1700 of them. I feel like I did pretty well on mine and they took several months to sell. They are nice and they will sell for a lot of money, but not Mofo type of money.
