If I recall correctly, these guys brought the "coffee and biscuit" Swedish Clays to life with the Rio WSOP replica "Pro World Games of Poker" chips.

Was just clicking around, and saw that they're closed.

Lol coffee and biscuit mold. That's classic. What kind of material was it? Was it compression molded or injection molded?

China clay, and his prices on almost everything were absolutely hideously overpriced.

A CT member ordered a custom set on the mold directly from the factory, and the mrchip owner was pretty bent about it being used without his permission, too...... expecting a Chinese company to protect his 'investment' and not produce chips for other people (the custom mold ring cost $400).

He even refused to sell C&B samples to interested CT members, instead choosing to alienate potential customers by stonewalling them. As a result, we created our own mold and label design, and pre-sold 300,000 chips without him getting any piece of the action whatsoever. Nice call, bro.

He made some really horrible business decisions, imo -- I'm actually surprised that he stayed in business afterwards as long as he did. Good riddance as far as I'm concerned.
