Hi all,
My name is Ben, 32, and I come from France.
I may lurk for a B&G set, from french casino. As i didn't really find what I look for on french forum, I decided to came here
However, I also need to know the price of my Paulson World Top Hat and Cane set (about 720 chips).
Hope to read some comments soon!

Salut et bienvenue!

Paulson WTHC chips have been selling on eBay recently for about $4 a chip. So your 720 chip collection *might* go for the underside of $3000 at the moment. Personally, I would not pay this price for these chips, but maybe that's just me.

Alright, that's what I saw too. Thanks!
Do you think asking for bids is the best way to make a good deal?

That's totally up to you. Auction is usually the best way to determine current value, as long as there are enough bidders to reach that value.

Someone is trying to sell a large set at $8 per chip on eBay. Don't be like them.

Ahah, trust me; that's not my state of mind.

And I'm not really sure I need/want to sell this set

Hi guys,

Welcome. The best way to do this is just loosely put them in a box that fits and take them to the post office. With the box dimensions and weight of the chips they can give you a quote that will be close.

Based on my experience from shipping the other way Canada --->France I would estimate freight at about 150 USD for 700-800 chips.

I recently received a set of chips from France (to Canada), 520 chips for about 60 euro shipping costs.

I used them many times and I need to clean some because I prefer when it looks new.
However, I'll say they are not damaged at all.
