I would like to add on to my Matsui Emerald Bay cash set. So I'm going to place one more order for these chips. I'm getting everything I want in this order, and have ZERO intentions of having these chips produced again in the future. So, if you want some, here is your chance.
These chips will use the bright color set for the base chip color, and the standard color set for the spots. It is not possible to mock this up exactly on the Matsui chip design tool, but I mocked up what looked closest to chip colors that I could, using the design tool. I'll add some pr0n photos from the first order (after receiving permission), so you can see how they turned out -- can look quite different from the mock-ups.
NOT ALL CHIPS SHOWN BELOW WILL BE ORDERED. We have to order a minimum of 500 PER CHIP. That means, if you want yellow $1s, then 500 x yellow $1s must be ordered by our group (it is not sufficient to have 300 yellow $1s, and 200 blue $1s...those are 2 different chips, and would require 500 each)!
Note that I was a little unhappy with the original yellow $20, green $25, and white $100 (all using the moon-spots). So I am offering a secondary version of each of these 3 chips (not using the moon-spots). I've thrown a secondary black $100 in there just for fun too, which DOES have the moon-spots, and designed to go with the new secondary yellow $20 and green $25. Note that the original purple $25 is being offered as BOTH a $20 and a $25 this time, because there may be sufficient interest in that chip for BOTH denoms to be made. I'm not sure there were enough purple $25s made in GB1 to cover what seems to be current demand for those.
ABOUT THE CHIPS
These are all 40mm chips. They have square edges, and they are very slippery. Some people really hate how slippery they are. You've been warned....they are slippery.
Labels will be laminated matte finish.
Chips come in Matsui chip racks. You'll get a chip rack for every 100 chips that you order.
The chips will be approximately 11g.
PRICING
Base cost is $1.36 per chip (2 color - 40mm) and $1.42 per chip (3 color - 40mm). This was the cost per chip from the original group buy, and does NOT include re-shipping to you. The cost could be a little more than this, depending on the quote we get for shipping from Matsui to me. But since we don't have artwork fees this time, I expect this will be the price -- just know that it would be a couple cents more per chip.
Note: in the event that the chips cost LESS than this -- this will still be the price per chip, and the difference between this price and what I have to send to Matsui, will be paid as a donation to the Seattle Humane Society. The reason for this, is that I do not want to figure out how to compensate the participants from the first group buy, who had to pay all the art work fees. WAY easier to do it this way.
TIMELINE
Sept 1: Order thread opens
Sept 10: Order's must be final, ordering closes (10pm Seattle time).
Sept 23: Payments are due (10pm Seattle time)
I fully acknowledge that this timeline is rather aggressive. However, I want to get these chips in my hands, and shipped out to GB#2 participants before the holiday shipping gets started, if that's possible. I think more packages get lost and stolen during the holidays, and I'd like to avoid this if at all possible.
PAYMENT
Paypal friends and family, Zelle, or Venmo.
Payments are due by Monday Sept 23rd at 10:00pm Pacific
ORDERING (Orders need to be posted by Tuesday Sept 10th at 10:00pm Pacific)
No sample sets will be offered this time (unless someone else offers to run them, and do the shipping)
When placing your order in this thread, don't worry too much about the 500 chip minimums. Let's just see what we end up with, and we'll cross the bridge when we come to it, regarding chips not reaching the minimum. This could be a total nightmare. But let's see.
The following chips are guaranteed to get made (I will update this list as chips meet the minimum):
Green $0.25
Blue $1
Orange $5
Purple $20
I want to say it again...these chips are slippery. If you can't stand slippery chips, please don't order these!!

You can delete the rows that you are not ordering.
Note that the ordering of this list is the same order that the chips appear in the photo, if that helps with which chip is which.
Please only post ONE order, and if you revise your order, revise it in your ONE posted, order. Do NOT post a second post with your updated order.
I'm sure I'm forgetting something. I'll update this OP as I think of things.
Note that the secondary versions of the $20s, $25s, $100s all use the exact same colors as the primary versions. Not sure why they look so different in the mock-ups. But look at the chip samples themselves, for what colors the chips will be!
Here is what the chips actually look like (@madforpancakes, let me know if you want me to take down this photo). Obviously does not include the secondary chips...and the chips are in a different order than the mock-ups above.
