there is a constant list of clay poker chips on ebay, i am looking for 500 and there seems to be one being sold every couple of minutes at all times

its crazy to me that so many people are buying poker chips from ebay? do the companies just buy their own so it looks like a demand and they all go high or what?

I know a collector back home. He is really into it. He used to talk about "shows" all the time.

even if that was the case, these are mostly just normal boring chips...

It seemed weird how, all of a sudden, there were all these threads on poker chips.

Since the advent of poker on TV a lot more people in highschool are playing. So I guess that could be a reason for an increased demand for poker chips...
