Cancelled Empress $500 vs Empress $100 (1 Viewer)

[Hotus777]

Just received my Empress set and i love them! They are nice and heavy and not too worn.

Now I'm eyeing my next piece of Empress $100s or fracs to go with my set.

I have a stack of 8 Empress $500s that I'm willing to trade.

My games never get even to $100s, so $500s are out of the question

 

[OfficerLovejoy]

Let's see that set!

 

[Hotus777]

Let's see that set!

I have a lot of work to put into it before i start posting Pr0n shots ha!

Thanks but I’m good. 8 isn’t a very useful number for me.

@Hotus777 you should clean and oil them and then take another pic

Which hundos are you trying to go for? There's the primary (top) and secondary (bottom)? Both are fire and they are out there. What did you have in mind for fracs. You could do something like I did and stay in the Empress family and get some use out of the snappers, which are sweet. You could also make your own fracs with a relabel as there's tons of solids in decent used condition that would go great.

My cash set with snapper fracs. Might even trim down to a single rack in the future.

I was looking for bottom (Secondary) thanks a bunch Jim!

Wow that is such a good idea for fracs, if you don't mind sharing what's a used rack of snappers go for these days? I'm very interested in using them for my set!

I also don't mind doing a re-label as I'll probably use OCC for my $1s since the Empress $1s might be harder to find.

Beautiful set you got there, those are my goals!

Dam those snappers would be nice! Gorbash beat me to the last one posted

Hard to say what the snappers go for. I paid around $5 a chip but I really wanted them and that's what I was willing to pay to make it happen. They're heavey as hell and shaped, which I find cool. You can definitely find some used leaded solids and broaden your color choice with a murder and label job. I've seen tan and brown colored fracs that look great against the white 1s. If you're using those light blue 1s you have all sorts of options for frac colors.

 

[iLogik]

Just make sure they’re leaded

Are those Sams? I'm not sure those are leaded to be honest. Maybe I'm wrong.

 

[iLogik]

I was told they were but i don’t wanna taste them to find out i liked the colors either way

All good, as long as you like them who cares? They look sweet.

 

[DirtyTIVA]

@Gorbash and @Gear make a killer combo.

Speaking of which that could very well happen 7 hours from now!

the snappers are underrated, and also have two versions i just found out about. you can tell by the inlays "bolder" empress font vs lighters.
also that secondary hundo looks like a ride bear claw when its actually pink! maybe my eyes are getting bad.
