75c each for the 43mm size. I prefer the regular circle shape, but am undecided about size (39mm vs 43mm). Hoping others can provide input.

I might be in for up for 30-40 Milano Bounties. I'd prefer 43mm (or 46mm) and round, and gold. I have 43mm or 46mm bounties used for my FT customs (ordered through Sal). On second thought, this would be a traveling set for me, so 39mm would be cool too.

We need a 50 minimum per chip so if we have enough people, we can get both the 43mm and 39mm.

Im in for the 43mm. What about you @atomiktoaster ?

I've never used a bounty chip. If it's 39mm, do you just put it at the bottom of your chip stack? It's it's 43mm, do you put it off to the side, or stack your chips on top of it?

I feel like it should have special value, and hence be different. That's why that gold looks so great and a bigger size would create more perceived value.

However, storing a barrel of 39mm bounty chips is a non issue and would work nicely for me to put them in a display cabinet.

A lot of of the time you use it as a card guard. No preference on size for me. The gold looks good though.

Great idea!

@p5woody the legend. Steve do bounty chips get edge text? If so, can you please add the bounty text to the edge. What's the convention (same as the dealer text?). Thanks so much for putting this together.

Yes they can have text on the rolling edge. You can have anything you want. I have seen no text, a design, the word bounty, the name like Milano, etc. I was waiting to confirm size before creating the rolling edge artwork.

AWESOME!! Do you guys like the idea of a gold edge?

To recap @brains613 & @p5woody :

43mm:

@mummel = 25
@Aaron = 33
TOTAL = 58

39mm:

@Trihonda = 40
TOTAL = 40 (need another 10 here to meet the minimum)

No preference:

@atomiktoaster = 10
@12thMan = 20

@p5woody:

-pick the size that you want

I know 39mm are cheaper. And for the Milanos, I'd rather have either 39 or 46. The 43 is so similar to the 39, meh (not worth the hassle IMHO), that I'd rather have it bigger or the same. My preference would be the 46, because they're boss!!! However, for this being a traveling set for me, the 39's make more sense (and they're a lot cheaper). However, it makes no sense to have Steve do up two different artworks. I'll just do what the group decides, if that's 46, 43, 39, I'm game for 41 of them.

As for edge. These could potentially be in people's stacks, I'd think they need to be bold and distinctive to stand out as the BOUNTY. Gold is cool, and Milano or Bounty (in a different colored edge spot) text on the rolling edge is a plus. It needs to stand out. That gold chip, with gold rolling edge, with 3 black spots (with "Bounty" written in gold in the spots) would be the nutz!
 
@detroitdad Have you seen this thread? I know your buddy is using the Milano now - any interest for bounty chips?
 
Yeah and I'd do 40. Nice even number helps me sleep at night. Pending art which I doubt will be an issue.
 
Alright boys, let's do 46mm then. Please everyone double check your numbers.

@mummel = 25
@Aaron = 40
@Trihonda = 41
@atomiktoaster = 11
@12thMan = 20
@p5woody = 1

TOTAL = 138

@brains613, please let us know when you need this order by (we should be able to finalize it today if Steve has the time for the final artwork). Does adding this quantity get us into a better pricing tier if you include the dealer buttons? Thanks bud.

Guys, what are you thinking Re: storage?

I found these coin capsules on eBay. The internal diameter is 46.17mm. That's tighter than a, well, ...... you know :). Anyway, do you think this could work or would the chips get scratched on the acrylic going in, get vacuum stuck and be difficult to get out etc?

I think a tube like this would be ideal to put them in my future lighted display cabinet next to my racks!!!

UPDATE: these tubes open on both sides so the vacuum problem will be a non-issue. How consistent is OWPS with their manufacturing. Do you think 0.17mm is enough margin of error here?

UPDATE 2: actually guys, I think this can work. The plastic discs are 51.59mm in diameter, which means that tube can definitely hold a 46mm chip. Success.

On storage, I use plastic tubes similar to what's shown. The ones for coins work well. I also have some custom Chanman wooden trays for 46mm.

Ok thanks. Let us know what Sal says. Hopefully we can include these in the existing order.

No dice. But I do have an invoice for another order.

Pricing is .87

So, to pay, multiply your number of buttons by .87
Add 2.15 for your portion of shipping from OWPS to me. (12.75 divided among the six buyers) (I actually forgot about this in the last round, so just paid the $15)
Add 6.80 for small FRB

Are you all waiting for your buttons, and taking one shipment? If so, it's only 3.80 for the FRB, since I already have 3 for shipping the buttons.

Paypal payment to alvin_perry@hotmail.com. You pay the fees, please. Put ONLY your username in the notes.

Trihonda owes $43.82 if maff is correct. Please confirm and let me know where to ship the monies!
 
Ok cool thanks! So for the guys who have already paid for the Milano dealer buttons:

25 chips X $0.87 per chip + $2.15 OWPS shipping to Brains + $3.80 FRB top up = $27.70?
 
Steve I think that looks great! Anyway to render the image from the side so we can see the whole chip with edge? Thanks buddy.
