If it won't screw you up with the amounts, I can snag a set from Tommy instead

Minor updates:
Order was finalized with GOCC, accepted and approved, has been paid in full. Will provide delivery ETA when I have one.
Initial shipping/taxes were $14.77 and $23.96, respectively, will be apportioned per chip in the buy. (Re-shipping will be based on actual shipping costs.)
I've requested that phaze12's chips be shipped with his primary order - both orders are going to be going into production together. With luck, we won't have to re-ship his low-count denominations.

Just got mine, too!
Tracking reports label created, but package not in the system yet.
Hmmm. I better start thinking about packaging for the re-shipping...

Chips arrived! Haven't had time to even open the box.
I'll try to get them packed for shipping within the next 48 hours - will be apportioning the shared costs and the individual shipping and letting you know if there are balances to settle up.

My expanded set:
Starting stacks and spares:
Stacks are 2 x 500, 9 x 1000, 13 x 5000, 1 x 25,000, for T100,000. With ten players, it's a T1,000,000 start.
I can replace the 20 purple 500s with the spare ten 1000 if we want to skip the lowest blind level. Alternately, I can use the spare 1000s to run off the purple after the blinds progress.
The 40 spare 25,000s provide up to ten rebuys... or, one stack of them (100,000) can run off all the orange and purple chips, leaving the blue and the gold on the board. With the starting stacks and ten rebuys in play, I have T2,000,000 total on the table. The set has T2,010,000 total, 300 chips.
I is happy.

@pltrgyst, @Ronoh, these did not ship with standard 100-chip five-barrel-divided storage boxes; they had packing cartons that fit 150 chips with no dividers. This means loose chips will roll around. Since my new set is 300 chips even, it perfectly fills two cartons, freeing up the two 100-chips boxes I had my old set in.
Do either of you want / not want the 100-chip boxes? If I give you one each, Ronoh's set fits perfectly in one box, but pltrgyst's doesn't work out. If one of you already has chip storage planned, let me know, it makes things simpler. (I'll pack these safely, no matter which way we go with the storage boxes, no worries.
I think a box will fit inside a SFRB - getting some tomorrow - but am not sure. If it does fit, I may not be able to put padding around the ends.

I don't care about the boxes. Thanks for asking, though.
