Wait till you see Paulson prices. You’ll be thankful for the .35/chip

Aligned ceramics for like 30 cents a pop? Really? What has happened since I've been gone?

Anyone recommend a high stakes breakdown for say 700 chips plus some extras starting at 500 going up to 100,000?

I think it started getting popular on or around here:

Someone else probably better knows the history. The TL;DR version is low cost manufacturer from China that creates a nice product. Nothing happens fast with these though. I think it can be up to a 6 month project per order.

Some good reading:

My set I ordered (see above) is for a high stakes is for 600 chips. With starting stacks 10/10/7/10 for 300k. 140/140/140/140/40 breakdown.

One quick question - these chips are not edge aligned, right? The price is too cheap for that ... but maybe I've been gone too long.

I believe they are aligned but I’ll ask an expert to chime in. @Eloe2000 @TX_Golf_N_Poker

Aligned ceramics for like 30 cents a pop? Really? What has happened since I've been gone?

100% edge aligned.

You are paying in time here. Also you need some level of quantity to optimize freight shipping costs. Currently about $0.325 per chip edge aligned landed in the US if you have a group purchase with about 10,000 chips of various designs or the same design. However you are looking at several months turnaround time.

Counting @MD Mike and @SpaceMonkey420 to be in I think I’m going to cut it off there. Feel free to adjust your totals. I’ll work on getting the numbers in an excel file this weekend and ask you to verify the totals. I’ll have an update later this weekend.

[boltonguy]

Because you are definitely missing out!!!

edit: damnit I could not help myself. Give me 150 of those almond T100s too.

NOW ITS OFFICIAL

edit 2: nope, added T25s but the total is the same.

 

[MD Mike]

I have to stop before someone convinces me to get some T25s as well…..

Get T25s or you will regret it.....

 

[cgpilot]

Please double check the totals and feel free to adjust as needed.

 

[MD Mike]

Get T25s or you will regret it.....

You know, it’s weird how I really want you guys to make me want to get them. It’s like there is this giant crack rock and we are all egging each other to break off a larger piece and smoke it…

sort of haha

My count is confirmed thx! I want moar but know I will never use them.

An e-mail from Tina today mentioned that these chips will be produced at the end of the month; however, I do not know the exact timing and ask that you remain flexible.

FWIW, she promised me a month for 16K, it’s been a month and now she’s saying mid-October, which would be *after* yours.
I ran into some holidays and you’re using an existing file, so that may help. Either way, I think business is good for them and she might be over promising a touch (or she doesn’t like me.) For 32¢, I’m not mad, but would appreciate a bit more transparency from her.

 

[cgpilot]

Yeah I just got a new email where she mentioned some holidays and pushing it back to mid October.

“18-21th,SEP,is chinese holidays.there are 4 group orders is proceding.orders have some delays in future weeks.
i guess your order will arrange mass production after 10th,Oct,2021(1TH-8Th,OCT also chinese holidays),hope you donnot mind,thanks!”

 

[warma]

Sweet. She’s on it and learning. 5-stars are back.

 

[boltonguy]

At these prices I'll wait until March 2022. I have more than enough chips to play my home game

 

[5aces]

Is this still open? Suffixes says „ordering closed“.

 

[cgpilot]

I’d this till open? Suffixes says „ordering closed“.

It’s closed at the moment.

 

[davin]

Hi when’s the deadline

 

[cgpilot]

I was targeting a small group buy like the 3 Aria GBs before me. Was initially only going with 10 people and we hit 15 quickly. If anyone backs out and/or doesn’t follow through I’ll open it up to alternates.

 

[feltschmerz]

why am I having FOMO for something I have no use for

Jeff Foxworthy would probably drawl, "you just might be a redneck collector."

 

[PPLUSCLINT]

Confirmed for my qtys, appreciate you taking the lead on this @cgpilot !!!

 

[MD Mike]

Okay, I edited my quantities to give me T25s as well. So NOW I’m done. Still 800 chips total.

 

[Rbonus012]

My chip totals are good.
