Ah...I think he meant what other sets will be available in the next few days
Well this is the Argosy thread.

Yes but it would be helpful to me if I knew what other sets would be available as I might see something I would be willing to spend even more money on
Yeah I would like to know too

Agreed. You can always find ways to make more money
(especially if you have chips to play with)
Good advice. Always easier to later sell what you don't want to keep, than to pry something you want out of somebody else's hands because you didn't buy it in the first place.
I have tons more regret for chips I didn't buy than for any of the ones I did (except maybe the early dice/crown slugs). Just do it.
Sorry, late to the party. As others have noted above, the problem with labelling over hotstamps is not the foil, but the indents/ridges left behind. As its name indicates, "hot stamping" uses heat, which slightly melts the surface being stamped.
Removing the foil is (apparently) easy but removing the indents/ridges, or even just smoothing them, is a whole other game. Milling hotstamped inlays is a terrible idea - ask me how I know that.
I would recommend removing the inlays entirely and replacing them with laminated labels. (I offer that service - PM me for details if you're interested.) There's no guilt since the inlays are already damaged If these were SCV/LCV instead of RHC, I would have bought a set already, to do just that!

What we need is chip Spackle that can be used to fill in the depressions made by a hot stamp and smooth out the surface. The material needs to be inert so that it does no damage to either the chip or the label, and it must be a material that the labels will adhere to. Surely somebody can invent this!

All the chips with the stamp intact are stamped on both sides. Many of the chips have had the foil removed.

Yes, but mixed in with other chips that have seen some use. Most are really good condition.

Please state qualifications for a group buy
You're selling a couple sets in this thread, not taking orders from members to place a big order so everyone can get in. It's just a For Sale thread.

Thanks for that Tommy.
I am taking orders for sets. This lot doesn't get released, at a discount, unless we sell all the sets.
Everyone has equal chance to participate, no one is excluded.
