Welcome to PCF.This is my first post. I've never played poker and don't really know why but I found this after watching Chris Manzoni's videos and can't stop looking at poker chips now.
I had no idea why the Aurora Star chips wouldn't be made if there was a demand for them, but the Empress Star chips look so similar and I feel compelled to get some in case this is my only chance. Am I crazy? Or is there a decent chance these will be available/around for purchase in the future.
Thanks!
The original Aurora and Empress Star chips were Paulsons, and were obtained from Paulson (GPI) when they were only making chips for casinos.

These new ones are ceramic hybrids, and are fantastic...but are very different from Paulson clays. Try to get some samples if you can so you can test them out.
