can i also have #99 on the tournament please. total tickets to 4. thanks


also, what if not enough tickets are claimed/sold? No raffle? Is there a minimum?

That's a good question. I haven't set a minimum, so if not enough tickets are sold, I guess the sets won't be raffled off.
Unless someone else has suggestions...

Maybe have to shut one down and get everyone to transfer to the other one. Just raffle one set at a time. I also notice patience pays off. Guess it all depends how long youre willing to wait. If you have the buy now option i dont see why waiting it out would be a problem

I'm in no rush :). It's not like the sets need to go within the next few days or weeks. But I don't want it to drag on for months though ;).
 
I think the recent introduction of 300K minty paulsons is dragging away people who would have normally jumped on a set like this. :(
 
I'm not sure that's accurate, Anthony. You are talking about a very small group of people, many of which are probably more likely to just BIN these if they were interested in owning them.

Had many of those sets been made available for sale recently (and thus dirverting expendable income), you might have a valid point, but not the way things stand today.


Good to see you back around, Bloody. Best of luck with the auctions -- these are great chips that rarely become available in quantity.

I'm not only referencing the select members that participated in the Paulson group buy, but all the people who didn't that now want to acquire those chips and would rather spend similar funds on the new Paulsons vs the fantasy Le Noire line.

If you listen to the SotU tonight, you might be able to find a few points in there that you can blame on the StarChips as well.

If you are referring to the BIN option then I guess that’s a possibility, however when I think about the numerous beautiful sets that have been raffled off prior to the revelation of the ghost boat chips it seems pretty par for the course. If you are referring to the raffle not filling up, I think it’s a real stretch to assume that because 300,000 chips showed up, but are not on for sale threads that people will no longer pay $25 for a shot at a great set.

I suppose there is the possibility that all the sets that had to go to raffle over the last year were because the big money was tied up in the group buy? If so, so what? Some not so well-to-do chippers got some amazing chips for a fraction of the price and sellers got paid, seems like a win-win to me.

I can guarantee you that it is affecting this raffle by at least 2 tickets

I'm assuming you are speaking about yourself. If so, care to elaborate? I'm assuming this is because either:

1. You were part of the GB and are therefore short on cash.

2. Are waiting for someone to list these chips for sale and are saving for that opportunity.

3. Pissed off about not being included and are just taking a break from buying/selling.

4. Other

Really not trying to call you out here, just think it would be good to get some first-hand feedback from people whose decision-making has been affected.

I wasn't a part of it. But it made me realize I don't want to waste any more money on raffles and I don't want to participate in the community aspect of the forum any more. It also made me evaluate the true $$ value of chips. I'd rather save up my raffle ticket money and buy a set I want some day in the future

This is one of the most desired sets to me still. I just don't like my chances for the price lol (I just never used to care about the price before)
