Help with chip pricing resources (1 Viewer)

[CardRally]

Hi all! I am a new member and have a lot to learn. To determine pricing on individual chips or sets I know how to search past sales on eBay, and how to search chip listings sold on this forum. What other resources are available to help determine what a chip or a set is worth? Thanks!

If you scroll through TheChipRooms vendor page you can see past prices of a lot of chips. There will be some change in price but it will give a base understanding for a good amount of chips you will see on here.

That is a big help, thanks!

For older and more unique Nevada singles I use The Chip Rack as a base reference, but even there and recently, I'm looking at eBay for prices. I figure that's a better metric of what folks are willing to pay for those chips.

For larger numbers of chips and sets, quite honestly older classified prices here are a much better metric as we are the primary buyers and sellers of chips in that form.

I know I make notes on sales of casino Paulson sets exchanged here, even from stuff sold back beginning on ChipTalk, to see where those items I have now stand.

Like the line from Antiques Roadshow, "for insurance purposes, I value this item at...". It's good to know, and useful when making adjustments to my policies.

That all makes sense, thanks for the advice. Thanks for taking the time!
