Canceled Excellent condition Bahamia set (2 Viewers)

[Hornet]

Relisting this at a reduced price to make room for my Indiana Grand set.

Bahamia set with sharp edges and a flexible breakdown to accommodate a variety of stakes. I’d really prefer to keep this together as a set; it’s just too beautiful and rare to break up.

$4500 $4300 $4200 plus shipping.

1200 chips and 2 DBs. Breakdown below. If you want more pics, just let me know.

25c x 100
$1 x 200
$5 x 600 (100 boy, 100 beach, 100 dolphin, 300 island)
$25 x 200
$100 x 100

The $1s are rare and the hundos are just beautiful.

Yep. I’m curious how many other sets there are out there in this condition. Can’t be many.

 

[joeyshin]

Stop drawing my attention away from Indiana grand $100 secondaries. I gotta stay focused. Lol

And I’d guess likely leaded

I don’t think there were many new chips other than $1s available

Can’t be many

And so long ago I think a lot of old chip room sets were just lost after the poker boom

I only recall mostly dollars having sharp edges, but I guess there were others

My rack of 500's would look good with this set

What do you have in mind?

The $500s are hot … time to reunite them with their brothers?

The dollar chips are the hardest to find in quantity. Expensive if you can find them.

The aftermarket quarters are a find as well. I looked for years and never found a rack I would pay the price asked.

It would be tough to piece together a comparable set - this chip room sale is something like 15 years in the past. The bits scattered to the four corners of the world.

Not likely to get another shot at a big set like this. If they call your name, better think hard. -=- DrStrange

I have one, plus the infamous g-money-mike Bahamia case, from 2011.

If I didn't have a set already, I'd have snarfed this one up.

While the $1s are very hard to come by, these are also copycat Chipco $1s that can do in a pinch and might be easier to find...

Here's an old pic from CT:

I had a set once but sold them because I couldn’t find the $1’s. Such a cool set.

When the set first came out, i loved them, but they haven't really held up over time. I wouldn't miss my set, but can't seem to let it go

Is this in reference to physical chip wear or the love for them has dropped compared to others?

well, my set is used, mostly, although I have mint dollars, but they really aren't mint, due to staining, but I just don't like the giant inlay so much, it was beautiful when I first saw it, but it's never grown on me.

 

[doublebooyah85]

These are cool af

 

[Schmendr1ck]

Oooh.

I always thought this was a great set, and I didn't expect to see this one (or any others in this condition) up for sale again. Good luck!

It really is a great set. At this price I could hand bought half of it if I didn't buy the grand lives

I am more in the camp of "a little bit of everything makes a nice collection" at one point I had the Aces and GC both having Giant inlays. I decided we only need 1 and the Aces were my first "real" set of chips, so the GC had to go. But I have always been obsessed with the Bahamias, sire I wish they put a little more effort in on the $25s and up... but I really don't think a better beachy set exists. I love all the different $5s and the idea of mixing them all together.

If I didn't have that pesky golden ticket 100% I would have bought these instead!

I am happy , getting the purple custom quarters through apache, they look good

Erick!!! I see flat butt, hidden butt, and juicy butt... but that amazing set of chips and you don't own "Dat Azz!"

The ruler of ALL Bahamia buttons! Lol

 

[Hornet]

The $25s are the weakest chip for sure, but the $100s are awesome imo.
