How to best "use" my few chips

I recently bought 4 of each of the chips above. I must admit I like them a whole lot. The chips weren't expensive (couple bucks each). But I don't know how I should treat them. And I don't know where to get more.

If I keep them (at work / on my desk at home / in the open)...they will get shuffled. They will get shuffled alot. They will then be dirty. However, I will actually have time to admire them while I'm fiddling with them.

If I put them in a closet somewhere, I'll never really look at them or enjoy them, yet they won't get all crapped up either.

I also can't really split them up, because you can't "shuffle" 2 chips. (obviously its hard to shuffle 4 chips , 2 of 2 different sizes)

I'm not sure whats "best"

I'm just kinda rambling, but any thoughts are welcomed.

well, i think they look great and i vote for keeping them out and shuffling the hell out em! if the chip is super rare and you think one day it might really be worth something then i can see throwing them in a drawer, but if not you might as well enjoy them! cool chips, i say put em to use!

Protect them and pick up a stack of some other $.50 chip Paulsons and shuffle those.

take a bunch of pictures of them, frame the pictures, hang them on your wall, then sell me the chips so you won't have to worry about them

.

i don't think i've ever seen these before - any idea where they are from or what the design is?

I've heard they are from "starlite cruises" Thats about all I know. I'd love to see if they say anything under UV light.

Jon...

I could have sworn I sent you some info about those chips and also about a Chipco $5 from Starlite Crusies. If this does not sound familiar let me know and I'll send again.

Nice chips. You can make both of us happy. Send me the chips, I'll do the UV examination. In return I'll give you something you can shuffle all day long.

LMK about the info on Starlite Cruises.
