SOLD AUCTION Bauta set w/oversized chips incl. dealer button (1 Viewer)

[DrJohn]

Up for auction: My set of 536 beautiful BAUTA ceramic chips, including a dealer button. The 25k chips are oversized 43mm!

You may know most of the pictures because I showed them in 2009 in my weekly chip pr0n threads over on CT. The chips are like new. They were made by SunFly. They are obviously Italian Renaissance inspired, "il palazzo dei segreti" meaning "the palace of secrets".

100: 124
500: 164
1000: 124
5000: 84
25000: 40 (43mm oversized!)

If I was in Europe, I'd snap these...but hard to justify when shipping to Canada is 25% of the cost.

Please someone take these away from me!

Loving these chips. That is a fantastic set. Shame the shipping to Norway is a massive 60 EUR.. And we are almost neighbor countries. Welcome to Norway..

Edit: You have had these for 8 years? But they still look "new"?
