Guys, check this one out: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...MEWA%3AIT&rd=1

It's an amazing collection.

I'm going nuts trying to figure out how to buy these chips.

No way, Jamby -- YOU trying to buy chips on EBAY?? I'm shocked, shocked!!

Seriously though, how much are these chips worth if the $400 bid does not meet the reserve? (Can you tell I'm not a collector?)

And just to make my contribution to this thread: did you see these yet?

I am the bakelite fanatic, so I thought these plaques were kind of cool. Haven't decided whether to bid on them or not.

I don't know yet how much they're worth, but you can bet that I'm going to research it and figure out what would be reasonable to bid.

I like the bakelite plaques and chips - very nice. I like bakelite too.

I like everything chip-related. It's a lost cause.

Those are some awesome chips in that collection! Six days and 19 hours to go - and already at close to $6.00 per chip. Be interesting to see how high the bids go.....

I checked and some of those chips are worth $50+. Incredible collection.

Oh my gosh! Up to $610.00! And Reserve still not met! Unbelievable! Over $8.00 per chip so far.....I better go scratch off some of those Lottery Tickets that hubby just bought.....might get lucky and be able to put in a bid on these!

I love the ASMs.
They have such beautiful molds and edgespots.

Already at $610 and reserve not met...Yet the seller states theres a low reserve....Im wondering what the definition of low would be?

Obviously I have no idea what these chips are collectively worth...anyone have any informed guesstimate to these chips overall value?
