Archie, first of all if you would think about what it says on the top of the strike machines, it says "SOUVENIRS". If you go into a casino and ask where are the strike machines they look at you as if you are from another planet, but if you ask where are the TOKEN/SOVENIR MACHINES, they know exactly what you are talking about!!! Archie, you also said that the NGC has no control over IGT, now you say they do, you also said silver strikes are not under the NGC authority, now you say they are.
All I am saying is that I have a lot of money invested in my Silver Strike Collection and I don't want to see this hobby discontinued!! I feel that I want to know why IGT is discontinuing this Silver Strike program and I think they should have to explain to the NGC as to what they are doing!! There are a lot of members in our club who sold off their $10 collections and only collect $200 now.
