100 $5,000 Hotel Embajador Casino Chips Bud Jones Mint Are these ships uncirculated or are they still accepted at this casino? Does this casino still even exist?
I posted my response with a little sarcasm.(just a little)  http://cgi.ebay.com/100-5-000-Hotel-...QQcmdZViewItem
For some reason it didn't post the answer so here it is:
Are you out of your freakin mind? Do you honestly think that I would sell $500,000 in chips for a starting price of $99. Even if I was afraid of flying I could buy myself a boat and go cash them in.
As for the chips they are uncirculated and in mint condition and I don't believe they operate a casino any longer but not sure.
If you find out they are accepted at the casino I have a few more. If you would like to bid like they are still accepted at the casino I would be happy.

It makes perfect sense to me that you would be selling a half-million dollars worth of chips for a hundred bucks, even if the casino was still in business. I mean how much of a hassle is it to go and cash them in when you can just sell them on EBay and let someone else worry about going out of their way to visit the cash cage at the casino. Right? Right?
Now that we are done with this topic, anyone out there want to pay me $35.00 for my 2007 fully loaded Hummer H1? I am down to 1/2 tank of gas and the filling station is just so far away. If no takers I will post on EBay this evening.

I thought the USPS Priority Flat Rate box is $8.10? And if it is yellow, I will take it. Quote: |
