Wanted Quarters for Jessie Beck cash set (3 Viewers)

[arch3r]

I just acquired my first TRK set! It's a Jessie Beck cash set. I'm excited because a.) (like I said), its my first TRK set and b.) my last name is Beck. So I kinda feel like I could be related to Jessie. Or as I will now call her, Aunt Jessie.

So Aunt Jessie didn't have a TRK quarter to go with the rest of her chips, so now it's up to me ( and you ) to make that right.

I'm looking for any suggestions for a TRK frac that would go with my new set. And even better, you have a rack or two of said chips and are willing to trade them for cash.

NICE!

 

[AWenger]

Awesome. Glad the chips made it to you! (And thanks again to @kirchhausen for delivering them after the BiB meetup!). [Edit - whoops, just noticed that's my pic, not sure if you got the chips yet or not.]

I'm not sure if @Chippy McChiperson or @duffman have any suggestions or leads on some TRK solids/fracs for you, but tagging them here just in case.

What happened to those black NCV's, @detroitdad? Or the white hot stamps... Which ever you weren't using...

Mill and relabel by @Gear.

 

[rocollis]

Sweet set!! good luck with the frac!

Blacks went to @inca911 and the whites to @Jambine

 

[LabMonkey]

These are what you need. They are out there.

Yeah try @inca911 I sold him my rack of the non-denoms too and he may not be using them.

Still don't have then in hand, yet. Hoping to meet up with @kirchhausen next week.

Oh wow. I thought those non denominations were Paulson's. Didn't know they were TRK.

I think there are both types out there.

Yep Paulsons and TRK exist.

Are they though? I've been looking for some for quite some time too.

GLWSearch! They're cool fracs!

I had two racks, but for the life of me I can’t remember who I sold them to.

 

[inca911]

I’m holding onto mine for a bit, so no plans to sell

 

[arch3r]

It appears that the TRK non-denoms would be the perfect frac for my set. But it looks like it may take time to acquire some.

So, in the mean time, I'm open to suggestions/offers for another TRK chip that I could use. In order of preference...

Inlayed quarter
hot-stamped quarter
blank
monagrammed

As long as the color works with the rest of the chips, (and the price is right, since this will be a temporary frac until I find some of those sweet JB non-denominations in the TRK flavor ) I'm open to consider them. Not looking for anything mint. Used is fine and actually preferred.

So search deep in the back of your chip vaults and let me know what you have. I want at least a rack but will take up to 2 racks.

 

[LabMonkey]

I may be overly optimistic. I've owned two racks on two separate occasions (none now) and it seems like I've seen them come up on eBay or here in the classifieds at least once a year in the last few years. Maybe they've all been locked away in chip vaults finally.

After seeing what @Gear did for @inca with a shaped mill and sticker, you should consider that too.

Might even be a better solution than the black NCV.

Yeah. All for that. Probably the best solution. Still will need to find the right chip that works.

Can you point me to some pics of the final product of @inca911's chips?

Hmm... Not finding them easily. Were they posted in CD? @inca911?

@Gear turned King's Crown $5s into Aladdin $1 chips for me, and did an amazing job.

Full set info is here: https://www.pokerchipforum.com/threads/new-trk-mixed-set-pron.25234/ I added another full rack of the black non-denoms since that post. When I see those, I buy them. Probably why the market is a bit empty....

He does great work, and there is a lot to be said for getting exactly what you want

Ok, I'm sold. I'm going the gear route. Just need to find the right chips.

 

[arch3r]

Decisions, decisions...

A huge thanks to @liftapint for lending me this rainbow of TRKs. I just love this community!

 

[detroitdad]

That's a tough call. I "think" I like the orange the best with black as the runner up.

 

[KingZilla]

Some TRK solids just came up on eBay. There is a thread here with auction links.

 

[AWenger]

I like the look of yellow or red best (red quarter is a Cali thing, but Reno is close), with orange and black runners-up, and even a green might work, closer to the green color of the spot in the $5.

 

[arch3r]

Ok - I scored a rack of the black Jessie Beck's NCV. Thanks @kirchhausen!!!

But since I have started down the TRK road of finding/making a JB frac, I want to see it through. So I'm still on the lookout for a rack or 2 of TRKs to gear-ify with an inlay.

 

[liftapint]

Have you decided the color(s) you want? There are tons of TRK solids floating around. Anything besides yellow will probably be easy to find. Yellow is probably doable too, with patience.

Chris showed me the samples you sent him, very cool of you to do so. I think the green ones would look amazing with that set.
