OOh they do look pretty nice. I like the distance from the outer limit of inlay to the edge of chip a lot (size of inlay is perfect).

I'm not totally sure about the edge bevel yet. Some pictures it looks sharp but others pictures it looks rounded.

Tommy...I see your new marketing chip!!

 

[Forty4]

Maybe flip the blues as well? Might just be the photo.

 

[Xtadeus]

They are nice, really nice !

Guys what would be your division to handle 10 people at the table with recaves. ( we play 10 points = 10 000 chips with fixed blinds 50-100 )

I have three propositions with a box of 850 chips. ( I need your advice on that )

First one :

12X25$ = 300$
12X100$ = 1200$
15X500$ = 7500$
1X1000$ = 1000$
------------------------------------------------
Total : 10 000$ - 40 chips/individu

40X21 = 840 chips I can take 10 chips with a value of 10 000$ - 15 000$ - 20 000$ ( don't know what would be better ) to make the change with big stacks during the game and get good initial stack back ).


Second one :

12X25$ = 300$
12X100$ = 1200$
13X500$ = 6500$
2X1000$ = 2000$
-----------------------------------------------
Total: 10 000$ - 39 chips/individu

39X21 = 819 chips I can take 31 chips with a value of 10 000$ - 15 000$ - 20 000$ ( don't know what would be better ) to make the change with big stacks during the game and get good initial stack back ).


Third one :

12X25$ = 300$
12X100$ = 1200$
11X500$ = 5500$
3X1000$ = 3000$
------------------------------------------------
Total: 10 000$ - 38 chips/individu

38X22 = 836 chis I can take 14 chips with a value of 10 000$ - 15 000$ - 20 000$ ( don't know what would be better ) to make the change with big stacks during the game and get good initial stack back ).


Then for the colors, personnally, I like the following :

25$ = green as the original.
100$ = black as the original.
500$ = I don't like the purple one... I prefer the orange one for that one.
1000$ = yellow like the original.
Then I need another color for last chips : 10 000$ or 15 000$ or 20 000$ ( I was thinking about White one )

Let me know please what you think about that.

I will take my order afterwards in order to avoid the 10% increase in a few days for this beautiful project ! and I suppose I will have to take the blank ones and specify all the colors for each value.

I'd recommend that you create a new breakdown thread to cover this, rather than move this one off topic. I'll mention that you have way too many T500s, according to the standard advice.

 

[Xtadeus]

Ok Atomiktoaster. I did it http://www.pokerchipforum.com/threads/need-your-advices-chips-distribution-per-individu.6475/

 

[BGinGA]

The purple/lavender chip is the only one that looks really off; all the other colors range from acceptable to magnificent imo.

And to my somewhat trained eye, the edge bevel and crosshatching appear to be exactly the same as that found on the CPS chips. I can produce hundreds of CPS chip photos that look exactly like these in regards to those two features.

 

[Tommy]

Tommy...I see your new marketing chip!!

Just ordered a rack of blank orange chips.

Going to need some labels. GEAR!
Was the custom label diameter posted already?

 

[Mental Nomad]

Are the crowns not a bit too shallow?

It almost appears that they're molded into the cross-hatching, but not molded into the chip...

This was my first thought as well, they looked very CPS'ey. I'm with a few others and wasn't a huge fan of the CPS chips either for a few reasons, the biggest being the way they "felt" with the bevel and crosshatching. These look very similar, however I do like some of the colors and I do like the label. Definitely goin to order up some samples.

Are the crowns not a bit too shallow?

It almost appears that they're molded into the cross-hatching, but not molded into the chip...

I saw that as well, I was wondering if it was a product of the picture or if they are really that light. They definitely appear light, that's for sure.



I'm still wondering if I will order some, look forward to samples getting here this winter.

 

[Psypher1000]

Yeah, that cross-hatching looks extremely similar to the CPS chips, and cross-hatching was the primary reason I didn't care for the CPS chips. I'm hoping the looks are deceiving; I'm not expecting my hopes to be fulfilled.

 

[Xtadeus]

Oki guys. Thanks to some great people here, I eventually succeeded in making my decision on the chips I would like to order.

Can you tell me if everything is fine if I write information like this in the Special instructions/comments before ordering the 850 majestic chips ?

125 blank - green - 250 $25 labels
225 blank - black - 450 $100 labels
250 blank - orange - 500 $500 labels
150 blank - yellow - 300 $1000 labels
100 blank - white - 200 $5000 labels

Here are the colors :

as soon as I have your green light ;-) I will push on purchase ^^Grand total : 320$ ( 282,465 EUR ) ( 246$ + 74,50$ shipping )
thx.

 

[Forty4]

Only need to order the blanks and labels for the orange and white. Every other chip is the standard color/denomination combination. I'm thinking you're having trouble figuring out how to order the blank chips with the factory labeled chips and get the savings. Not sure how Josh would handle that but you're buying a bunch of labels you don't need the way you've written it. Might just be easier to e-mail (or call) Josh with what you want and then he can tell you how to place the order.

Just looked at his order page. Probably better to click the 850 labeled and then state that the orange and white are blank chips with the 700 labels you need.

 

[Xtadeus]

yes you are right. I only made changes for orange and white.

Maybe I will have to write :

125 x green $25 labels
225 black $100 labels
250 blank - orange - 500 $500 labels
150 yellow $1000 labels
100 blank - white - 200 $5000 labels

I sent a email to apachepokerchips@gmail.com

Maybe Josh will also see the message on the forum. He already posted some messages on this discussion.

I am waiting then to make the correct order ;-)

ps : can we expect a majestic dealer button ?

 

[BGinGA]

Maybe I will have to write :

125 x green $25 labels
225 black $100 labels
250 blank - orange - 500 $500 labels
150 yellow $1000 labels
100 blank - white - 200 $5000 labels

I would submit that order as follows:

125 x green $25 chips
225 x black $100 chips
150 x yellow $1000 chips
250 x orange blank chips
100 x white blank chips
500 x $500 labels
200 x $5000 labels

 

[72o]

I would submit that order as follows:

125 x green $25 chips
225 x black $100 chips
150 x yellow $1000 chips
250 x orange blank chips
100 x white blank chips
500 x $500 labels
200 x $5000 labels

^^^He knows what he's doing!

I would suggest ordering a few extra labels as well. Maybe 10 extra labels just in case some rip when adjusting or whatever. This suggestion comes from first hand experience.

 

[Xtadeus]

Waiting for Josh ( I hope he will come before 25/6 to avoid the 10% increase ^^ ) ;-) but yeah good idea 72o ! By labels I suppose you are speaking about extra adhesive papers to put on the chip in case of ?

 

[72o]

Yeah because you will be placing the labels on the orange and white chips yourself, you'd want to order a few extras in case a label tears or something happens while you are sticking them on. All it takes is for 1 label to get screwed up and now you have 1 less chip you can use until you order more labels. What has happened to me in the past is something as stupid as trying to remove the label from the sheet and it bends onto itself and sticks to itself. After all, you are going to be applying 700 labels.

 

[Xtadeus]

You are right. What do you suggest ? ( 40 more labels for white ( 20+20 ) + 100 more labels for orange ( 50+50 ) Should be ok. What do you think ? Too much ? Too few ? And yes I will have to go for 700 collage ;-) will remind me when I was at school lol

Now I am really ready to order them ^^ I just need Josh to tell me what to do ahah ^^ ;-)

125 x green $25 chips
225 x black $100 chips
150 x yellow $1000 chips
250 x orange blank chips
100 x white blank chips

500 x $500 labels with extra 100 labels in case of a mistake ( 50+50 )
200 x $5000 labels with extra 40 labels in case of a mistake ( 20+20 )

 

[72o]

I dont think you need that many extras. 10-15 extra labels of the 2 denoms your labelling should be fine.

 

[Xtadeus]

Ok.

I received a mail from Josh.

Here is the method he recommends :

So tell me if I am right doing this please ? :

Special instructions/comments (if any):

850 chips
--------------
125 x green $25 chips
225 x black $100 chips
150 x yellow $1000 chips
250 x orange blank chips
100 x white blank chips

800 majestic labels ( to be able to use them each side of each chip ) :

500 x $500 labels
200 x $5000 labels

30 extra 5000$ labels ( 15+15 in case of mistake )
70 extra 500$ labels ( 35+35 in case of mistake )

Here it is guys. I know that maybe it is too many extra labels...but hey it is only 4$ difference between 25 labels and 100 labels. I have so many labels to use ( 500 for the 500$ chips - I can make mistakes for 35 of them it is not that many... ) ( 200 for the 5000$ chips - I can make mistakes for 15 of them it is not that many neither ^ )

Thanks again for your help.

Looks good to me - and Josh can mail you back if he sees an issue with your order.

GL!

 

[Xtadeus]

Thx Mental Nomad ! ( and all of you )

purchase done ;-)

 

[Tommy]

Does anyone know the size for the labels? 1 1/16?

 

[Gear]

Good call on the purple. I might switch the spots on those and pick which one looks best. The thickness issue will always be a problem with China. Nothing I can do about that.

I'm not sure that's a good idea. While I'm a bit disappointed with the purple color vs. the mockup, I'm concerned that swapping to the darker color would make them too similar to the black chips, i.e. the $100s right next to $500s.

 

[Gear]

Maybe flip the blues as well? Might just be the photo.

Don't be silly. As they are, they look almost exactly like the mockup.

 

[Gear]

And to my somewhat trained eye, the edge bevel and crosshatching appear to be exactly the same as that found on the CPS chips. I can produce hundreds of CPS chip photos that look exactly like these in regards to those two features.

I have to agree. I thought these were supposed to have far less of a bevel than the CPS chips, and these first-runs look virtually identical.

The colors look great, with the exception of the purple/lavender chip. It should be slightly darker/more saturated if possible (but not as much as swapping with the spot.)

Going to need some labels. GEAR!
Was the custom label diameter posted already?

You rang?

I haven't seen anything specific about the label diameter. I was planning to wait and just measure the real thing.

 

[jbutler]

the purple definitely should be flipped. blue is better as is than flipped. the only problem with the blue (and the white, but it's less noticeable imo) is that the light blue spots do not appear to be as vibrant on the exemplars as they are in the mock-up. it wouldn't sway me from using white $1s as i originally intended to, though.

the orange looks excellent. it's actually making me consider using orange $5s...

i still want to handle them before i order any. i don't mind paying the extra percentage to take them for a test drive before purchasing.

 

[Tommy]

Sounds like a plan.

 

[Gear]

the purple definitely should be flipped.

I respectfully disagree, and I have already ordered and paid for 5500 of these based on the mockups. I realize the mockups are not guarantees, but flipping the colors would be a major change. In my opinion it is far too late in the process to be making major design changes.

i'm only commenting on the look of the chip, not whether any particular change would be fair this late in the game.
