Never toss chains, or cassette until they just won't go anymore. That's the point of the system, sometimes the chainrings will also be toast, but sometimes not.

As I said, I don't use campy chains, still running my 10s Chorus with a set of old sram 89r chains. When that's done, I'll see what my options are. However others say that KMC makes a campy specific connector. Or the QWipperman which is a nice system. I'm using Wippermann 9s chains on my 7s commuter and doing well with them.
