Chip redemption notice - Rockingham Park (2 Viewers)

[Chris La Mantia]

For a steampunk party I built an 18-inch wheel with LEDs under stained glass that I'm pretty proud of.

 

[Chris La Mantia]

For some reason I don't have a picture of the fully complete wheel, but this is the 90% complete version missing only the graphics on the ID plate.

Yay Pics!

I'll have 11,000 chips please?

Dog pic, time to go gambo on gambo supplies.

Arrive around 9am. The auction started at 9am but the gambo stuff isn't until 10am. I text MaxB to come down. Heater txting taking place between Malaka, Butler, Bergs and I around chipes. Do we still say chipes? Malaka and I plan to meet there, we see Jimulcrum has found the party. Got to meet Jim's fiance who was cool and both dressed in black obvs.

WAT

This is the chip cleaner. It went for $50. I was mildly curious about it but passed. Came with 2 bottles of cleaning agent liquid stuff.

Hilarity on the booze. All went for retail prices but as stated, the jager went for over and the idiot took all the bottles at that price.

Tables. Story was already told here. $250 first one (PLUS 15% buyer) so just under three hundo. The way the auction went, there were lots of 8, 11, 13 and something more than 13. High bidder could choose as many as he wanted for the hammer price, most just wanted one. On the spot follow up auctions the prices went less, so $75 and $100 were common.

See the 2 big boxes in the background? They were NIB blackjack tables, but they were kiddie sized and went for $350 (+15%). We don't think the buyer realized they were for kid birthday parties.

The roulette wheels were in good shape and spun perfectly. I took terribad pics. $900 first one but alas 15% premium on top. Butler had the rest prices right.

Malaka taking inventory early pre-auction. The guy in the Celtics shirt was buying all the chips you could see outright for stupid prices, he didn't know where the motherload was like many there.

Hmmmmm Nice boxes. The chips shown were part of what was inside (11K chips).

ROAR

Malaka and Jimulcrum trying to math up the dispersement. The people around them all wanted to buy playable sets and didn't realize there were ELEVEN THOUSAND chips in the red boxes. The rubber case trays go for $70 each alone, although collectors could probably care less.

What gambler is complete without standard HOBO Bradless cart? A couple auction people and I were looking at this wondering WTF.

80's Porn Equipment. All the audio visual stuff went for auction the next day.

 

[guinness]

They had over 1000 chairs for auction but you have to take the Hep C with them. TV's NIB.

Lock of the week.

TORNEY chips. Celtics guy bought them for too much.

Free Rockingham coin when you signed up. Did not take good pic.

Post auction gambo time.

 

[snooptodd]

Jebus ... WTH are you guys going to do with all these? Open an underground room?

 

[MaxB]

I used to like Bradlees ..... Child World next door, the arcade inside the mall area, then grab some fresh fruit and groceries at Keeley's before making my way to the end of the mall to get some tools at Channel.....then maybe a bite to eat across the street at Bonanza (y) :thumbsup:

 

[guinness]

Idiots buying $15 bottles for $20 + 15% premium. I tried to sneak other videos but people kept getting in the way. This is the only clean one I could take.

 

[guinness]

Oh I totally forgot! The bird cage of dice chips in this picture went for $125! PLUS the buyer premium! 800 slugs in a bad condition bird cage.

$143.75 = 18c per sluggo. They were the first chips auctioned so jitter tax in effect.

 

[Chris La Mantia]

I'd have been all over those roulette wheels!

 

[legend672]

Thanks for the pics Tim

 

[manamongkids]

@guinness did you guys buy all the $2 and $4 chips they used to use

 

[guinness]

Thanks for the pics Tim

Anything for you kid.

 

[GrumpyCatMalaka]

@guinness did you guys buy all the $2 and $4 chips they used to use

There weren't any $4 chips that I saw but I did buy all of the $2s.

 

[manamongkids]

Go read @bergs BBotB thread, I have requested a 2/4 limit 8 game in the near future. Maybe those chips can see some action!!!

 

[guinness]

@guinness did you guys buy all the $2 and $4 chips they used to use

GrumpyCatMalaka owns all the 2's (3000'ish) for a sweeeeet limit game.

No $4's found. Chips auctioned were just a frac of what existed for sure.

[manamongkids]

Interesting thought, not sure I agree, broski.

I'm hosting a limit 13 game rotation - I'll send you details - but we're not using these chips and the stakes are slightly higher (still very comparable to $125-200 standard buyin at my place though).

What are the break down of the sets you guys got? I'm trying to figure it out from the picture and other comments. I've got the 3,000 $2. Jim's 2,000 chip set is 500, 1000, 500. Is that what what the other three are as well?

 

[guinness]

I live about 35 minutes from The Rock so imagine my surprise when I went for a ride yesterday and one street over from my house I see the buyer of the Rock Ambulance lol.

Roughly 8K in non-2's and roughly 30% 1's, 40% 5's, 30% 25's.

Super hold em is replaced by TAHOE hi/lo single draw. My invention, and that's the game actually called "Stick It In My Bum-Bum", or Bum Bum for short.
