Controversial Chip & Poker Opinions (14 Viewers)

[superchromix]

Not that I disagree with you, but there's a huge difference between passing on a little shipping cost and being straight up deceptive/unethical (said with the assumption the ~40% rounding error wasn't a simple mistake) in your sale posting.

Do your homework before posting bullshit like this.

Meh, I'll let it stand but I'm sure your purported shipping costs and transparent sale's thread will speak for itself. Not sure you can report that one out of your thread.

I’ve flip flopped on every constroversial chip opinion I’ve had since I started collecting but as it stands now…

I hate 43mm chips..

 

[PocketAces]

Hot take alert: I'll choose a set of sharp RHCs over a set of leaded bike tire THCs 10 times out of 10, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

I don’t agree. But I’m probably (?) in the minority…and definitely biased

Did you just call with a Jack high?

As posted, the chips were sold at cost including shipping, and not a dollar more. I didn’t have to do that - but I did out of respect for Jim and the forum.

Newsflash: international shipping is expensive.

Based on your sale thread it looked like you said the chips were coming straight from thechiproom. I.e that they were still in the US. Guess that's why

BCC C&S, MGK, and web mold are far, FAR above non leaded Paulson RHC. Probably some others as well, but definitely those 3.

Welcome to the family

Soon you will…

Modern THC 8 gr chips at $4 each

NAGB chips at $8 -20

Leaded THC at $10+

No, the chips are in Germany. A couple of people who wondered about this reached out by PM and asked.

To be fair, those $1s were pretty much bike tires. Those particular $5s were in rounded but pretty good used shape and those $20s were nearly mint. The lack of uniformity was more frustrating than the bike tire $1s.

Ah ya, I w staring at the $5s lol. Those $5s are probably my favorite condition to play with. I'd probably look for some random used THC $1s in similar condition to give the Gear treatment to replace the bike tire $1s if they were mine

My initial comment was gonna be about that and then I saw the gif and forgot what I was even gonna say.

My bad, it’s been like 30 years since I had a math teacher, and I dropped out of college

Fixed it

But it still stands. Lake Elsinore chips are not the business from the pics I’m seeing.

If you play ten more games with that set up, the $1s are going to implode.

Don't be a dink - eat your shipping costs.

And If you don't, feel free to eat a dink. Or a bagful, even.

Those Matsui racks (and the knockoffs) are the ugliest racks ever.
Also, racks don't need lids.

Heavy gradients make inlay/label designs look cheap. Sharp type and images look much classier.

None of these polls ever seem quite right to me. But whatever, I’m glad we get to poop on the highly esteemed super fancy starlight chip.
