First post.. looking to purchase my first set of quality chips... hoping it doesn’t lead to an obsession leading to new sets every other month!

Welcome to the site. Hope you find what you are looking for and wish you well on your journey....
Hoping this won't be an obsession, is like hoping a big Mac is low in fat, but it just isn't. Similarly, this hobby becomes an obsession. Perhaps I'm generalizing too much, but it's a very addictive hobby. Be careful. Samples are your best friends.

Welcome, I’m in Navy Yard/Capitol Hill.
I wouldn’t worry about a new set every other month, one or two good sets will dent your bank account plenty.
Anything catch your eye thus far?

Appreciate the warm welcome, definitely interested in local games when such gatherings are “safe” again. I’m limited to metro accessible for the foreseeable future, hope there’s a few games still within reasonable reach
