Damn, there's 40 dealerships in Ohio? Guess I didn't realize how big Ohio is. I know riding through on I-70 I see several.
Makes me wonder how many are in Missouri. We have three in KC alone, but one is on the Kansas side of the metro.
I stopped buying t-shirts early 'cause the pile of them got too deep and they are way too expensive. But I have been buying chips for a friend when I travel. Makes me feel like a collector without having a pile of them sitting in a drawer. They are a nice memento for a buck or two.

 

I also collect chips and dip-dots, which are becoming pretty rare. I also only collect them from dealers that I have been to, same as t-shirts.

The dip-dots are my favorite because they were usually given away - - FREE!. I guess H-D saw something there and came up with chips that they could -- SELL!

Some money hungry dealers(stealers) do charge for the dip-dots now.....if they have them. Very Very few do.

I have 45 dip-dots and 96 chips - - so far.

I would like to find a display board for them, but I'm not going to pay $100 from a dealer to hold just 50 chips. I might try casino poker chip websites.

 

I'm a chip collector. Started out just picking up chips from dealerships I visited, then got a few from friends, which turned into a full tilt addiction. I'm currently looking for dice chips, suit chips, shop anniversary chips and specialty chips. If you want to do some trading, drop me a note. Have chips available for trade!

 

Damn, I've only got about 9. Coolest one being from Dragon Harley by the Tail of the Dragon. Been to some in the caribbean but I wasn't collecting at the time. I need to travel more!

 

I got that one last summer coming back from Rolling Thunder. My favorite is French Lick Harley, also coming back from Rolling Thunder.

Kegel's H-D in Rockford gave me mine free 2 weeks ago - they also have a great café in the store = great breakfast.

 

I would buy something if I needed it from this dealer , I like that they would give you a poker chip business card that is worth a couple of cents rather then selling it to you for $5 like the dealer near me.

 

I have 2 from Rocky Mt. Harley I'll give to the first person to PM me with an address..


Edit: Chips are gone!

 

Last summer as I went to Rolling Thunder, I stopped at all the dealers on the way. It seemed that the closer I got to Washington, the higher the price the dealers charged for a chip.
I've always wondered if people stopped buying $30 t-shirts, if Harley would lower the price or just stop selling t-shirts? They should be free = they pay for other types of advertising.

 

I've been collecting for a bit - I only get chips from dealerships that I've ridden to or at (I'll rent a bike when I'm travelling on business and have time).

I'm up to 30 or so - most of my longer rides are with a group, and we usually don't stop except for gas and food - and tires.

 

That's why I like to ride solo = I can stop and smell the roses and check out any interesting things I see along the road.
If I'm with a group, I'll tell them I'll meet up with them at the next stop so I can stop and get a chip or to get a picture for H-D's ABC's of Touring Contest, which is even more frequent.

I have a little over 100 poker chips so far - and I've been to every one like you.

I also collect $5 casino chips as a souvenir. That way I come home with at least $5 left.
