If they’re like mine they’ll prolly clean up really well. Mine are more dirty than worn. Once I clean them today I’ll post pictures.Upon closer inspection, my $5s are fairly beat up as well. 22% GO chips. Hoping to salvage at least a full rack that aren’t banged up too badly.
If yours are similar to this @detroitdad , I would consider this used. Heavily used is bit of a stretch.Mine are definitely dirty! Lots of nicks and flea bites, but a good amount of lightly used chips as well. This barrel seems fairly representative of the whole:

Mine are definitely better than this quality wise on the whole. I mean, it's clear they aren't sharp like the secondaries, but my chips and fleabites are a lot lower.If yours are similar to this @detroitdad , I would consider this used. Heavily used is bit of a stretch.

This doesn't bode well for the actual table chips, either.
Fair enough. I'll reword it, they are heavily used for my standards
If you're planning to use those chips for all in, it was meant to be. Poker Gods weren't having it. There are buttons for those. All in buttons are meant to significantly bigger too.Still choked I couldn't get 8 lousy $1K Secondary for All In chips ... would have put up with the other shortcomings lol.
@RivieraDanny interesting to see who actually wanted what with how the % limits are forcing stuff back onto the market immediately.
Same for me. I think these chips saw minimal play maybe a few months, but certainly not 2 years of casino play. I don't think the table chips are gonna fair so well though considering these were reserves. I think the table chips will be similar to the used HSI chips in wear. I don't think HSI was open for that long either.Mine are definitely better than this quality wise on the whole.

You gotta be an optimist! Who knows what sort of near mint beauties are in the bottom on those barrels.Mine are definitely better than this quality wise on the whole. I mean, it's clear they aren't sharp like the secondaries, but my chips and fleabites are a lot lower.

I think it’s fair. As a reformed RHC basher, I still have to revert to my old position - RHCs wear like shit, so condition REALLY matters here.Fair enough. I'll reword it, they are heavily used for my standards
Right. That rack of rejects that somebody is auctioning off really seems to put the above-pictured barrel to shame.wow
the level of heavily used for some peoples shipments compared to like new for others is astonishing
Mine look great!After seeing the condition of the primary 5’s with all their GO’s, I’m glad I went with the secondary. All mint and no GO’s.
The more look at them, the better they get. Anyone got Secondary $1s for trade? I have got some primaries for trade. Will pay difference or trade 3 racks for 2 racks.
Those sec 1’s are HOT thoThe camera actually improves their appearance. They are worse in person. @Sprouty and @WedgeRock and @Skagglio saw them last night.

I think once they’re cleaned they’ll be much better. Mine look very similar in condition, but really aren’t that bad. Unless you’re a chipper nobody would be able to tell the difference imho.The camera actually improves their appearance.

That’s what mine look like in comparison to mint chips. They’re more worn, but cleaned they won’t be easily discernible without a trained eye imoView attachment 923518

That would’ve been my preference as well, but I’m not looking to fork over the $$$ for mint chips and these are good enough for me. I’m going to felt these multiple times a week so the mint chips will prolly get a little worn after a while and match the condition of the $5’s better. Overall I’m quite pleased to have been lucky enough to get a set especially since a lot of people didn’t so I can’t complain that much. Only a little lol.That doesn't work for me. I'm not a fan of mixed condition sets.
Yeah you definitely got some good chipping karma lol.
