    Been screwing around on eBay looking for junk I don't need and came across some cool things.

    12 Vintage Las Vegas Casino Slot Machine Player Gloves - I never knew there was such a thing as a slot player glove, have you?

    Las Vegas- Vintage Coupon Books/Post Cards - This looks like it would be fun to go though and look at everything. A little to much for me but I just might buy it.

    62 Chips with hot chicks from Hooters
    - Pretty cool collection of chips, but $3,500 for $605 in chips? This guy is smoking crack.

    108 Casino matchbooks
    - Neat collection.

    LAS VEGAS PHOTO Collection, Lot, SHOWBOAT, 1960 - This would be really cool to go through all these pictures. $600 seems way to expensive though, I offered him $10 hopefully he will take it.

    It looks like a pretty good sized collection of stuff.

    Thinking that if one had some time to spare they might consider buying such a lot and the matchbook collection as well. With a bit of sorting, organizing and some time they could organize that in to a decent little photobook.
    Probably be able to sell hardcopies online for $12.99 and eBooks for $6.99

    Be careful though. I've been buying/selling on eBay for over 13 years and have sold a lot of vintage Vegas stuff (have a few late 1950's postcards on there right now)

    In looking at the lot the seller is advertising as Las Vegas, I'm seeing a lot of Reno/Tahoe stuff in there which isn't as popular as "Vegas stuff".

    It also appears many of the postcards are the newer Continental size (larger) and again, not as popular as the standard size of 3 1/2" x 5 1/2".
