Hello everyone,
I am a new member of this forum. I want to participate in the group buy. Since you can see that I am not from the USA, I should mention that I have a US shipping address where I would like to order the chips. I have read most of the terms of purchase, but I still have a few questions:
1. If I understood correctly, the chip material is China clay? So, it is not clay composite and metal insert? Is the material similar to Majestic and Milano chips?
2. Is it possible to order only the proposed designs, or can I send my own design? I understand that I can have my own inlay design, but I am interested in whether I can send my own spot color design? If so, can I use all CMYK colors, or only certain ones, as is the case with the CPC design tool?
3. From what I understand, only Web mold, Greek mold, Cards mold and No mold are offered. However, in the examples, I saw custom molds such as Stardust and Aladdin (see picture). Does this mean that I can have a custom mold?
4. In some of the proposed designs, it seems to me that there is no inlay but rather a hot stamp, such as Stardust and Chardee Macdennis (see picture). Does this mean that the hot stamp option is available?
Thank you for your answers!
Cheers!

These are not China clay but are ceramic. Definitely different than Majestics or Milanos.
1. The material is a ceramic composite, not China Clay.
2 there are some mold, the Stardust mold and Aladdin, that are faux, or fake molds printed on no mold ceramic chips.
3. The Hotstamp chips you see are another printed product on a no mold ceramic blank, same as the blank mold mentioned in bullet 2 of my answers.
4. You can make your own spot designs as well as inlay designs, they must be in a file format such as Adobe Illustrator (.ai) that can be used in the print sublimation process.
This should get you started, the hybrid molds take a sticker for the inlay artwork, the no molds the art is printed directly on the chip.

Not clay. Think Empire Cardroom / Taj Mahal, which are available on Apache Poker. They are the Tina's "Cards Mold" chips. The Web and Greek molds are newer, but still a chip from Tina, the same person that does the Cards Mold.
Please make two more posts so you can contact @justincarothers who has all the answers to your questions.

Thank you guys for the prompt replies! I'll have to think a bit about ceramics, cause I'm a clay lover
Does this comment count as a post? Because I’ve posted comments on other threads. I have more than 3 of them. Or is a post something else, like starting a thread, etc.?
You should be able to message now. Yes, this counts as a post. FYI the ceramic hybrids here are a better overall chip than any China Clay offering. In my opinion anyway.

You should get samples of all the molds

I might add on to this with another partial set, but wanted to make sure I got this in in time first so I didn’t miss it deciding. I’m curious about the air shipping cost to save on time, I’d love to know more. Thank you Justin!

Have any limit sets been made on the web mold yet? 39mm and 43mm? If so, are there any pictures out there?
Trying to decide between 39mm and 43mm for my set. Or maybe I do the lower value chip on 39mm and the higher value chip on 43mm.
Decisions, decisions.

After getting samples of both sizes everyone in my group liked the 43mm better for all denoms
Something about these particular 43s just feel right in hand. We had used 39 of course for years and years but its nice to have something a little different
Still shuffles great and everything just more to love

Both sizes are fine for me, the only thing I don't like is when sizes are mixed. Mostly because of storage. 43mm needs to go in a larger rack, and then all the racks together don't look as nice because they aren't the same. I prefer how a set looks when the chips are the same size. This is just my subjective opinion; everyone has their own point of view.
I'm definitely leaning toward the 43mm size. Just trying to see some good side-by-side pictures of both sizes of the web mold chips. Barrels and close-ups. My search function isn't bringing up much.

After having 3 full sets of my Pioneer Club chips made, I pulled the trigger on the 4th set …43mm web molds. The main reason was the size of that inlay (28.3mm), it’s a nice, big canvas for the design.
I use the Apache (Matsui clone) racks, which fit both 39mm and 43mm chips. So that’s not a concern with those racks.
I love that design.

Order placed and artwork files have been sent. Limit set.
I went with the 43mm web mold chippies.
I may have had a little inspiration from these unobtainables (for me, anyway).

No one has ordered Azteca this go around
Update*
T100 - 100
T500 - 150
T1000 - 150
T5000 - 125
T25000 - 25
Total = 550 chips still
Is the azteca a common order in the past? Or if I didn’t want to pay the full $80 I should pick a more popular design?

Why do you think there is an $80 label fee?
I'm pretty sure all these designs of the pre-designed files are not labels but molded inserts.
I order a cash game set, not the Azteca, this go around. I wasn't charged for a label fee.
