Cheapest Paulson Sets (5 Viewers)

Hey Everyone, wondering just through browsing what Paulson sets typically are the cheapest? I see a lot of either horseshoe or jacks casino that seem to be good values! Curious to know from those who are around the scene a bit more than myself.

Usually well used RHC sets from closed casinos are the cheapest. The condition of these chips are usually bike tires (damn near worn out from decades of constant use).

There was recently a TCR (The Chip Room/Jim) sale which had Tachi palace chips for $0.30 each with well worn conditions. There might be some people selling some in the classified section.

Another cheap option from the top of my head is the majestic star set, those usually come in at around $0.25/chip and I think might be slightly more worn than the Tachis.

Thanks for the information! Makes sense that casino used chips would be the most value yet also the most worn down. Is there really a big difference between longevity between RHC and THC?

THC has a bit more durability. RHC are more prone to flea bites because of how close the hats are to the edge of the chip.

Starbursts, solids with initials, generic roulettes. Not "sets" per se, but can definitely build sets with them.

Majestic Stars and Tachis come to mind as examples of cheaper Paulsons that have been available the last few years.

Is there really a big difference between longevity between RHC and THC?

Long-term (at casinos), THCs hold up better than RHCs. But for most home games, the chips don’t get enough felt time to make or notice the difference.

I think you meant, which Paulson chips are the least expensive, or most affordable. Cheapest implies low quality
