These are ridiculous. Especially that T25K

I don’t recall seeing IHC Hotstamp tournament chips. There’s not many out there?

So I normally have a rule that I never open pallets or boxes until I unload them in the warehouse. I broke that rule and of course someone cut in front of me on my way to the warehouse. I had to slam on my brakes and I heard crash and the sound of rolling chips.

In my U-Haul, I will splash the pot, whenever I please.

More impressions. Lot of new $1s and $5s. The $25s have 2 different versions, hense the difference in the dye lots in the previous pictures. 2 different fonts. I will have to sort those out. The $1000 chips are stunning, but I can't get them to photograph well. The 25k and 100k all appear to be new, but very limited supply. I try to bring some home tomorrow and get pictures in a better light.

Hoping we see some 200/200/80/20 cash set breakdowns. Great find, Jim!

I wanted to veer right so badly today. Wife said no.

Sorry about the chip spillage Jim. I had 3 cars pull out in front of me on my trip. Just stupid drivers.

I wanted to help sort chips, but not this way.

Attention all you people storing your chips in natural-disaster-proof pelicans and apaches: look, no broken chips! (They’re not fragile)

Not exacthe same, but I do remeber a couple years ago some idiot dumped his own chips out of one of those cases at about 4 am onto a hard floor at the Ohio meet up

The idiot is on the right side of this pic embarrassed and putting them back in the case... no casualties... nice job @Ben8257 you idiot!! Always check and make sure the case is closed before you pick it up!

Couple of questions:

Are the Harrah's NOLA primary cash ships destroyed? (I hope so, they were beat to shit, and so worn).
What is the color of the T1?
Was there a secondary set?

It would be a million times worse if you accidentally did that to someone else's chips at a meet up. I think I'd die on the spot.

If you need someone to keep those chips safe, I know someone. :)
 
I wonder if the secondaries will ever reach the market. The primary chips are really neat as they reflect the culture of New Orleans, but I know that in Louisiana the primary chips are destroyed. I would imagine the secondaries have similar themes. Maybe the secondaries will reach the market one day. Do we know if that may be a possibility? @TheChipRoom
 
OK something else just caught my attention. There are chips that say HARRAH'S and chips that say HARRAH'S CASINO. Seems to be in all of the 39mm denominations. For this set I may have to break my hard and fast rule to not sort chips. I know how OCD some of you are.

I think you would simultaneously be sorting by condition too, from the look of that pic, so two birds with one stone honestly.
