| Re: SSSHHHssssss..... chips on Ebay
That always cracked me up. Not the actual sale, but the masses reaction. True, he was offering a chip at 600% "face value" but are people seriously expecting the guy to sell a Paulson casino chip for only $.50 even though that would turn a 100% profit? You can't get ANY Paulson mass produced home game chip for less than a buck, let alone a Casino issued chip. And those are not your average run of the mill Casino chip. They are beautiful for any chip and a $.25 too boot. These are badly needed in Casino home game sets. You no longer have to use starbursts or $25.00 chips for your $.25.
The only thing that I think people had a legitimate reason to issue the beating that he took (and is still taking apparently) is that his "For Sale" posts sound like a used car salesman pitching a Pinto to a rich little old lady. No offense intended SOK, but the posts seemed like manufactured hype when none was needed. The chips speak for themselves.
Bottom line is a chips value is what someone is willing to pay for it. If you don't like his prices, don't buy them! But don't trash the guy for asking what he thinks they are worth (If you choose to bash him for being abrasive or whatever else that is your prerogative).

600% wouldn't be too outrageous.
