They appear to be close to me according to the zip code in the listing. If someone gets these and wants them packed and shipped properly, let me know and I could pick them up and ship for you.

Crap. I remember this set. I tried to buy it. Love these chips.

The 700x$3 kinda kills this set for me.... unless it was a mill job

Not a bad hotstamp.

A spendy little project there. Chips, mill, and labels, but the end result could be worth it.

Heads up 3/6 limit set

Heads up? Is that a joke?

One could actually play a full table at 3/6 with 700 $3 chips.

@ekricket plays a 2100 dollar heads up game. Don't judge him.

These were listed on eBay maybe a year ago for around the same price. There was a thread about them then also.

I love the gold $1's.

The Charlie Endy chip is pretty cool too. (Paulson and BCC)

Agreed, beautiful set.

Ok. I found the other thread from late 2017, and posted links and the text below. Assuming it's the same seller, he is an acquaintance of mine from a local poker game, but the poker game I knew him from no longer runs, so the last time I saw him might have been back in early 2018. At one point, I extended a feeler offer to him to buy the chips for around $1600, if he was willing to bring them with him to the next game, (and save him the trouble of packing & shipping them), but he politely turned me down, and said he had received bigger offers through eBay.

If @arch3r or others here are interested in contacting the seller directly to discuss a sale or brokering a deal, let me know, and I can probably get you in touch with him directly. But I'm no longer interested in the set.

Hey guys, after looking at these and the seller's name/location, I'm pretty sure the seller is a guy I know who deals a monthly home game in DC. While talking chip collecting with him before, he's mentioned he's got a set of Paulson solids, for a NL or limit game, and IIRC, they were purchased from the Paulson retail store in Vegas.
If its the same guy, and if you work out a group buy, and he's willing to deal offline to save eBay fees, I could pick these up locally, and help with splitting shipping.
I might be interested in a few racks of $5s, but only at a price less than $100 a rack.​

Update: I ran into the seller over the weekend at a game I play in. I told him he couldn't sneak his post on eBay by me or the chip collectors on PCF. (The post also has around 20+ people following it on eBay, so he knows it already.) He said he's gotten a couple offers through eBay, the highest being $2200 or $2250, (compared to his $2500 BIN price), although it sounded like he either rejected them or was waiting a few more days. He said he could tell by the eBay screennames that offers came from a company/reseller, (i.e. like atlanticcoin, apachepokerchips,or something, although he didn't think either of those were the ones who bid.)​

​

We had a brief discussion about whtat it would take to buy off eBay, and he's not necessarily opposed if the set doesn't sell on eBay; he said the eBay fees run around 10% (which seemed high to him, but he's never sold anything on eBay before, like me). Even if he took the highest offer, he'd be netting over $2,000. I told him I could probably get a group together that would be interested in a little less than $1 per chip. I had been thinking if he had told me something like 'give me $1600 cash and the chips are yours' I probably would have snap-agreed to that price, but he's received higher offers already, so he's not letting them go for less. If I read him correctly, he also seemed intent on trying to get maximum dollar for the set, and even letting his post ride at his asking price of $2500. He said he's had the chips for a long time already, and it sounded like he's not in any rush to sell them.​

​

One more thing, based on pricing at $1/chip or more, I'm withdrawing my interest for a few racks of $5s. (I had been hoping for around 80 cent/chip).​

​

Let me know what you guys think, and what you value the chips at, and/or if anyone is interested in the other 'unclaimed' Red, Purple and Green chips. But absent a higher offer, and having all the chips spoken for, I can't make any deal that would compete with other offers the seller has already received. ​

Ok who pissed him off?

 

[JMC9389]

Probably trying to get more money from an unsuspecting shopper from the Black Friday mania upcoming in the next few days. Oldest trick in the book to increase the price from what it was before and then make it look like you're getting a deal.

If seller was intersted in selling the chips instead of being greedy, they would have been gone a long time ago.

Yeah he had plenty of buyers at $1600 (especially before eBay collected taxes) like a year ago... if he invested that he probably would have made that $200 back by now

 

[DMack]

He’s only accounting for inflation (and he had to raise the price because he’s had it listed so many times that eBay is charging him).

 

[Johnblue]

700 $3 chips. So good.

the biggest game that I was a regular at was commerce casino 9/18 played with $3 chips. Love 3/6 love 6/12 love 9/18.

limit poker is a whole different beast, and I love it.

 

[Johnblue]

I have the chips for a limit set of my own actually, but I think I’m going to make them $2 chips. I have 1000 of them
