@Goldfish if you are interested in purchasing some tourney chips for conversion to higher cash denoms then feel free to PM me, but as soon as you can because order deadline coming up.

This goes for anyone else who is interested, too.

Regarding the MOQ for this order; looks like cash is in the clear, but Tournament has a bunch which are short.

• Is the MOQ fee per-denomination? Like, if I decide to order 1 of each tournmaent just for a sample with my cash order, am I going to get nailed with a ton of extra fees on the individual chips?
• How does the MOQ fee of a tournament chip affect a cash-chip-only order? Are all of the fees spread across all chips ordered equally?

(Sorry, just trying to stay within a budget and with the order quantities as they are now, it's scary)

The extra is per denom that doesn't meet MOQ. Yes the costs are punishing. We are trying our best to explore a scenario where all MOQS are reached so there are no unnecessary fees which must be borne by everybody.

Right, so when I calculate my "worse case scenario" if 2 tournament denoms don't meet MOQ, that's going to be 1,550e (775 * 2) that get added to the "fees" and spread across all chips, even my cash-only order. Got it, thanks.

Thanks much. Beautiful chips, but Gonna pass. I would need 43 mm for the higher denominations. Thanks!

So under worst case, divided over roughly 30 orders, looks like about $50 more per each order, not too terrible really.

My understanding is that options will be discussed with people ordering if and when we get to that point. I don’t think our orders are in any way commitments to bear punitive MOQ fees.

Yeah, that's what I'm seeing; when I add in 2 penalty MOQs, it bumps my order from $996 to $1024 - not terrible for my tiny set.

Also worth noting that if we get to, say 900 chips on T5k’s, it’s not worth paying the MOQ fee when we can just order 100 more for much cheaper.

Correct, which is why we the negotiations are still dynamic. Best thing to do is to lock in your orders ASAP so there are less variables to consider.

Yes, that's why I accounted for only 2 MOQ penalties in my spreadsheet even though we technically have 5 right now.

Assuming the only denom we won't be able to meet the minimum order quantity is T25k, the MOQ penalty will be 775€.

For that chip, the base cost per chip is 1.77€

775/1.77 is approximately 437

Does that mean if we're approximately 437 short of 1000, it would make more sense for a few of us to add some T25k to our order and sell in the classified at cost in the near future?

I had the same thought. It could work I think.

 

[fishsaybloop]

Rather than paying the MOQ, why don’t we split for @allforcharity expert services

 

[Hornet]

I’m actually leaning towards getting a rack or at least a few barrels and using them as $500s.

 

[fishsaybloop]

That was my other option as well. Really like how the blue is looking so was thinking why not put it into play more often. But the contrast may be a bit overwhelming

 

[mipevi]

I just did some quick math based on the order spreadsheet, assuming no additional chips ordered. MOQ fee for the T25k + extra chips to hit the MOQ on the others not there yet, divided by the current total chips, would make about €0.08 more per chip for the existing orders. If it makes the difference between the GB happening or getting cancelled, I'd be ok with that (and IMO the MOQ fee for the T25k was always pretty likely to happen). And this is the worst case scenario, I fully expect more orders/add-ons to come.

Yes, something like this will be done, but final numbers may need to be crunched for more than 1 denom. I'm on it, don't worry. Every effort will be made to avoid unnecessary charges. Really.

I'm happy to help out how I can. But I also don't want to spend money unnecessarily.

 

[DMZ]

Just added 124 T5k for conversion to nickels! Think meeting MOQ on T5k now! Thanks again Berny!

I’m doing this but on an incredibly small scale.

Updated!

 

[Hornet]

If we don’t make it for the $100s, I’d be fine getting a few extra barrels. So we just need one more denomination.

Same; I could future proof a little with the $100s. I actually might update my order after a few bourbons tonight

I added 140 25ks with plans to switch them to fracs. @allforcharity
