Well you have good taste at least. Good luck with the hunt

Just bought my second rack, which took a long time to find. Good luck with your search. They're out there, but not cheap, and not many folks are selling.

 

[johnjohn]

True

 

[dkq999]

how much do they cost for a rack of mint.

Going to guess $500-600.

 

[dkq999]

okay. thanks.

 

[Changster]

okay. thanks.

Actually it might be less... like $300-400.

 

[dkq999]

sounds better. lol.

 

[navels]

It's hard to know given there aren't very many racks out there and they are only exchanging hands privately. I'd say at least $350/rack but the only way to know for sure is to put up an auction.

 

[colter ripton]

Yeah I have bought and sold them for around 300 a rack. At one time I had 4 to 500 of the golden eagle 5s.

So I would say the 500-600 a rack price is way high.

300 to 350 is a fair price for these. They are super nice, but anything in the 5-600 range should be alot more rare. They are out there if you beat the bushes.

 

[BGinGA]

Good luck finding any these days for less than $400/rack. Originally sold for around $300, but no longer.

 

[dkq999]

Is this the only way to search for chips is to post a want ad on this forum.

 

[colter ripton]

Anyone know how many of these were sold by spinettis?

There were quite a few floating around in recent memory, but I never knew how many were actually released.

Definatley a few thousand, but I have no real idea of a rough total number.

It seems now a days the people who have them arnt selling.

 

[pltrgyst]

If someone's counting, I have three mint racks...

$300-$400. https://www.pokerchipforum.com/threads/new-chips-added-as-t25k-es-25-golden-eagle-5-as-5.40629/

They do sell quickly, but also do come up for sale frequently.

I sold all my racks because I can’t stand mixed label sets anymore. And unless you want to do some serious inlay replacements, I don’t believe you can build a playable sets around these chips. But as individual chips/racks, they are fantastic.

I have them paired with Horseshoe Southern Indiana quarters and Casino Aztar MO secondary $1s. The colors and spot patterns are great together, and the mixed inlays don't bother me a bit.

It's only believable if there are pictures

Great spot patterns, but mixed inlays tilt the hell out of me
