Wanted Condado Beach Resort Ceramics (1 Viewer)

[jskel]

I ended up buying this small 400pc cash set to get things started. It appears there may be a few of you out there that also got in on this group buy awhile back. I spoke to Gene at ABC and he said that they have the artwork but not the same printers and the chips are different so he doesn't think they would match up well but I would like to send some in to see if he can get close. I wanted to see if anyone has any or knows anyone that may have some laying around. I am looking for the listed denominations below. I appreciate any help I can get. Thanks for looking.

.10 if they are even out there (don't have any of these)
$1 Have 150, wouldn't mind a few more to fill out a barrel or to make a rack
$5 Have 40, Could use more. Would like enough to have a rack
$10 Have 10, Could use a few more
$20 Don't have any. Would like any amount

****I would also be up for a couple of the $25 or $100 real Condado Casino chips as well if somebody had a couple extras laying around****

So @jskel Gene would reprint/redo these if we wanted? I had a set and sold them so I would love to have a real set of these again!

His response to me asking about them is as follows.....

"We do have the artwork from the Condado Beach chips, but there are a couple of issues with making more of them. These were made in 2008, and the chip blanks have been changed since then (at least twice). The new chips don't have as rough of a texture on the faces as those most likely have. The second issue is that the printers and inks used in 2008 are obsolete, so the colors would not match exactly. I'm not sure how different they would be. If you sent me a chip of the ones you want to get more of I could do a test print to see how close they are." -Gene

I will probably send him out a couple of chips to see what he can do.

Gene is a top notch guy to deal with. I bought some stuff from him and is awesome to deal with.
