Native Lights Casino Primary Chip Sale (2 Viewers)

[Josh Kifer]

Yeah there have been pages of suggestions for Jim, and he somehow refrained from responding with, "you ungrateful bastards, how about I run the business as I like and not generate more work for myself, only to have you complain regardless. How about I don't sell you dirt cheap chips you can't get anywhere else?"

So, there has been a decrease in griping, and we (I) are hoping Jim decides to hold another sale instead of sending them all to eBay, as he threatened

I don't think he threatened. He stated the best method with less work but won't have this "fair" issue going on. It's more hands off. I think that it's just going to happen....

 

[FDLmold]

Still over 500 ones left, and a few scraps of 5s and 25s. The mystery of what comes next is still waiting for those chips to sell.

My shipment arrived today. They look really good, except for all of the hooker juice that will need to be removed (mostly the 1's). On a side note, my 5 year old daughter walked by as I was unpacking. She noticed two chips that had arrived broken and said, "Oh no, poor chippies. These two have their heads broken off." Too cute. Gotta love that she already has a soft spot for chips as such a young age.

Yeah...

Anywho...

Here's more pron of the same chips that everyone's posting, but these are mine

And a thread for any suggestions on what to do with them https://www.pokerchipforum.com/threads/native-lights-what-to-do-with-my-set.24236/

 

[BiGGyT]

I got my sample set, regretting not buying the 2000 limit now. Grats to all who got a playable set.

Donald Trump would have hoarded the $500s. Hillary would have created new chip sale stupid laws to defeat capitalism. I want my guns, abortion rights are somehow relevant to this chip sale. It's causing global warming. Free Mandela (again)! Save the whales. NFL players would have protested the sale. Black chips matter and that's all I have to say about that. Love you Jenny. Long live the mooch! Can we move this to politics thread yet?

 

[uclaure]

If anyone loaded up on 1's and 5's to make the percent limits and is looking to unload them, I'd like to add another rack each of 1's and 5's.

Go home Forrest, you're drunk again.

You could buy another rack to get us closer to the new chippies being released.

 

[uclaure]

Yeah, but I figured I'd hit up the folks here who might be trying to release unwanted chips that were bought for the sole purpose of making percent limits. Also, I'd like to get them preferably from the same person to save on shipping.

I think these will go well with the HS $1 and Par-A-Dice $25 for my high stakes tournament set relabel.

Really wish I could have got my hands on 20 of those $500 to rip the inlays off.

You are a monster....

 

[superchromix]

Looks like only 300 ones left...

Well I just bought 360 $1s, so...not sure if that was before or after...but I'm doing my part and looks like working to turn my set into a cash set (y) :thumbsup:

I will probably have some $5s and $25s to sell now that I'm going cash route instead of tourney.

Two barrels left.

 

[MikeLV]

Two fewer now

 

[David94sc]

There are 4 $1 chips left.

One of the guys who ordered tonight should add them... $8.95 shipping for four singles is a bit high

All things being Equal and that four was the magic number my job here is done. Moving on to the next opportunity when it arrives.

Yes I'm sure Jim will refund the second shipping. Bring on the secondaries!!!

 

[Mac128k]

@MikeLV for president.

 

[Dr. Matt]

Tried to go back. Sold out. Woulda done it if @MikeLV hadn't (y) :thumbsup:

 

[FDLmold]

YAY! Time to find out what is next and where it will be sold. My money is on these:

Going to be a war over those $1 and $5, I'm afraid

I love this entire set. I wish I hosted more often

 

[upNdown]

I think the primary and secondary racks are both shockingly awesome, for a tiny casino. The only bummer in the bunch is the primary $1, and so what; it's a $1, what do you expect.
It just frustrates the heck out of me that Paulson is cranking out these gorgeous chips, and not doing it on the THC mold. (But my wallet appreciates it)

 

[FDLmold]

I was just thinking the same thing, upndown, but had not yet put it into words. The Tonkawa chips are quite good also.

Anyone who thinks Jim is willfully or in some other fashion trying to piss off his largest Customer base is delusional. Anyone who thinks he should make life tougher on himself than he needs to in order to move his merchandise is delusional.
From a brief skimming of this thread it sounds like a couple of purchasers found a way to "game" the system, or at the least the "spirit" of the system that Jim put in place to spread out the availability of these chips to as many purchasers as possible. It also sounds like their methods were discussed in this thread prior to the sale beginning.

You folks have one option to resolve your butt-hurt. That is to boycott future sales if you do not like Jim's methods of selling his wares.

What you cannot do, if you are fair minded, is hold Jim responsible for the actions of others. Nor can you dictate how he sells his merchandise. No one is FORCING you to buy his products. Stop whining.
