Again, I query.

What monetary value could play money chips possibly have?

From poker stars' website (already mentioned above):

Play Money Chip Sales: Players are not permitted to engage in any discussion regarding the sale of pokerstars play money chips within our chat facilities. Any such discussion, including the offer to buy or sell play money in PokerStars chat, is grounds for warning or revocation.

You broke one of their T&C's. Pretty much makes your case null and void. That's like breaking the law and saying, "I didn't know!" Uh, yeah, well, too bad, eh?

Oh yeah, and I should probably tell you this, because it looks like no one ever has: If it looks and sounds too good to be true, IT IS.

It is true JQ, I started my roll this way. However, this moron should have went to the proper place to trade, which if he had come into the forum and asked before hand, I would have gave him a great site to use.

most of what alex is saying is ridiculous and pretty immature obv...but i'm pretty convinced that pokerstars is entirely for the sale of play chips. & btw it isn't illegal, you just can't discuss about it in the chat box.. that's all their rules state. anyway, the sale of chips just gives another user money, which I assume stars wants you to build off of to get another raked in customer.

It's hard to get a handle on PS stance on selling playchips, exactly. On the one hand, there are "broker" sites that buy, sell, trade; some even permit individuals to run ads offering them. On the other hand, they hace consistently blocked sales of play chips on eBay.
