I have to say… I’m a little surprised that I wasn’t credited as the person who actually found this set (and passed them off to our British friends and to pick up). I’m not one that easily gets offended at a slight, but given their eventual value to the community, no finders fee (I had asked for just a sample set initially and was told that would be too hard), I would have at liked a shoutout in their back story! Anyway, I know you are a good dude @jr8719 so this isn’t aimed at you even though I guess it is a little bit lol but just realizing that I never saw this thread.

I had zero idea, @Senzrock. I’ve only even seen @jr8719’s story, and only dealt with him when I bought the chips. :(

Can only apologise that I've made you feel this way, buddy — never my intention.

However, I think if you look back over our initial messages, you'll see that me providing a sample set wasn't a matter of it being "too hard" (suggesting that I couldn't be arsed, essentially); rather, a matter of the quantities being really awkward and having to break them up to do so — something you said you weren't keen on doing in the same message, too. In another message thread, I also told you that I owed you one for the Beavers — and I still stand by that.

Yes, you made the community aware of the chips initially — and for that I'm truly thankful. But that only tells half the story.

The other half involved me negotiating with Joe (even though they'd already been sold to his friend), the ensuing legwork and risk involved travelling across the UK at the time due to lockdowns... and having to fend off all the usual PCF vultures who contacted Joe in the meantime — even though they knew I was speaking to him.

Again, huge apologies for making you feel this way, mate. I just wanted to ensure that my side of the story was told, too.

No worries @jr8719 i know you are nothing but an asset to this community. I know there was nothing malicious about this, just an oversight that triggered me a little, reading now about their (really cool) back story. @Windwalker obviously I know you weren’t aware of any of this. Maybe I’m just grumpy that I missed out on the IG sale because Jim canceled my order!
 
Beautiful chips!!!

And nice to see these chips on the day my OSU Beavers advance to NCAA Super Regionals... :) Go Beavs!

Well done to everyone who helped bring these chips into the PCF community.
