This site should change it's name...

Who started the frenzy? The presidents have been available for 6+ months, and it's just been in the last 30 days that this site has gone nuts over these chips.

I think people just realised they where new casino grade Paulsons, I understand why they are a grate chip but myself I do not understand there more recent popularity other than they are getting scarce.

I don't know about the other folks, but it took me seeing them in person for me to go crazy. I had seen them on ebay for a while, and wasn't overly excited. Then I got some, and it all changed

To me they don't look like casino chips, they look like more of a souveneir chip almost like a franklin mint thing. I just don't think casino with pics of the trade towers, wall street and Rockefeller Center. Give me the Paulson vineyards, the chip looks more like it was a casino.

I couldn't agree more. Like I said in one of my auctions "pictures do not do these chips justice". I can not get the camera to truely capture the colors of the primary chip correctly.

Maybe I'd change my mind if I saw these in person, but I doubt it. I just don't really like chips with photos on them. I'd rather have any of the versions of Paulson home chips, those out now, or those planned for release this year....
