Milano labels? (1 Viewer)

Anyone know where I can buy stock / the original Milano labels? I may need to relabel around 25 chips. If Claysmith does not sell the originals, any companies that print them to look EXACTLY like the original? TY.

As far as I am aware, clay smith don't sell labels. You will have to get them made up. I know @Gear can make up identical or almost identical labels.

I saw in another post someone had Gear labels made. They price out at 30c / chip without shipping which is fine given I have only 25 to relabel. I was more concerned about the labels being exact replicas. Any other companies do this?

Don't think so - I may be wrong though

At .30 per chip you could buy new ones for .33 a chip, pop the labels off and have a sleeve of unlabled chips left over. However I got a sleeve of milano 50s where the color of the lettering on the labels was not consistant, if exact matches are your concern. It was only $50's that I saw this issue.

Good point. But how do you re-stick the labels onto the new chips? Adhesive? I think you also risk damaging a label while trying to remove it no?

 

[dickzapper]

I haven't performed that task but I hear it's quite easy to just slip a blade underneath the label and pop it off. Also heard the glue is enough to restick without adding additional adhesive. Not 100% if this knowledge applies to Milanos but I would assume for now that it does.

i relabelled my majestics and it's very easy to take of and re-stick the labels, @dickzapper is spot on. Majestic and Milano labels are pretty much similar

I suspect they're made in the same factory

How are your Majestics? Still drooling over them haha?

Yup still loving them! But I've got the chip bug, Iam now looking forward to ordering 1000 or 2000 of the borgata style chips!

It's a vicious circle mate! Lol

Thats what I keep hearing! I think I'm going to go for the Milanos just because I can get a cash set AND a tourney set in one go, for much cheaper than trying to build both Majestic sets and having to buy a birdcage etc. I think for our noob games they will work fine. I'm just so bummed the 25c is still not in stock....... Otherwise I could pull the trigger!

Yeah I know, 25c chip is one of the best colours, did josh give you an idea of when they would be back in stock?

All my games are noob too, but I can't resist having nice chips!

Trademark/Claysmith will not sell labels only, they'd prefer to sell you complete chips (and then you transfer from one chip to another).

Aftermarket labels will not match exactly. All china clay labels have a silver tint, and I've never seen an aftermarket label with the same characteristics. Plus an aftermarket supplier may not be willing to duplicate existing label artwork due to legal issues (new denominations, different matter).
