I used to have over 13000 chips and now I am down to under 3000.
How far my chips have fallen:(

Damn! Well I bet theres a bunch of people here who are extremely happy about your reduction.

I've always loved those Palmas Clubs.
 
Its depressing I know.
The before piic is just a snapshot. It doesn't include the dozens of sets that came and went before and after.

But these are the real keepers. I have done as much trimming as I can:)
 
I think it's okay. I don't know how you chose what you kept and what you pared away, but if the chips you got rid of were chips that weren't getting played, then it makes perfect sense to me.
I just got rid of my Cleveland horseshoes for that reason. Maybe I'm more of a player than a collector. But if they don't serve a unique purpose, and they'd never be my first choice, out they go.
 
Temporary glitch in the matrix. You'll be back in no time. By the way, the chips that pop out for me when all the chips are side by side, are the ones with the larger chip surface area and smaller labels. I like that.
 
Definitely. Things were a lot easier back when we used to haggle back and forth over 60-80 cents apiece for a few fairly ordinary Chipcos, eh? :cool:

The Egyptians! One of my very first set of real chips I ever bought before I knew anything. Before chiptalk even. I think I paid $1.09 for fantasy ceramics.
I think you said you ended up selling them.

I did -- the only chip set I ever sold until very recently,. I think they went to Jennifer of Pippin Place fame...
 
In the "reduced" picture, what is the set in the middle of the bottom row? Are those customs? I can't place them for some reason.
I'm guessing relables? Because the whites have to be Terribles St. Jo Primary $1's
