Giveaway Special Giveaway - First Responders - Military - Police - Fire - Rescue - Nurses (11 Viewers)

[BHB]

Bear with me - I have not done one of these in a long time. If I mess this up ... be kind....
I friend of mine, knows I collect poker chips. He has an old Paulson Hot Stamped - set of Chips. One side has a dollar value and the other side has his initials. He has no need to keep these chips and asked me if there was a way for him to give them away to someone who would appreciate them. I explained that PCF website allows for giveaways and so here we are.

He asked if there was a way to make sure someone like a "first responder" got them. Plus he didn't want them to go to "someone like you" (meaning me - as he puts its "what the hell do you need all those chips for")

So, although you will be on your honor system - if you meet the guidelines of being in the US military, or a first responder (Police - Fire - Rescue - Nurse - or a care giver) AND you don't already have a zillion chips - then you can enter this giveaway. You should also have been a member for at least a couple of weeks.

I will cut this off this Friday at 9 PM. I will try and use Random.org to select the winner. I will pay for shipping in USA - if you are out of the USA - you will have to pay any shipping over $20

Paulson Chips:

• White $1 - 86
• Green $25 - 20
• Purple $100- 30
• Blue $ $10 - 42
• Brown $ 50 - 40
• Pink $500 - 8
• Red $5 - 60

Except for the Red chips, these chips are in really nice condition. The red have seen a lot of play. The chips were recently cleaned in my sonic cleaner. The purple looked a little faded after cleaning so I oiled them and they look really nice. I would recommend the rest of them be oiled as well. (the sonic cleaning removes the hooker grease but leaves the chips a little dry)

In all seriousness though, cool giveaway. I don't qualify but very cool of your buddy to offer this up.

 

[Flopalopagus]

Ha! Based solely on this thread, I would say so.

Fantastic giveaway! I'm not a first responder so I'm not in but this is very generous.

I meet the first responder requirement, but feel like owning a 3000+ chip starburst set takes me out of the running on the second!!

Still wanted to hop in and say it’s an awesome thing for your friend to do, and for you to handle for him!

Best of luck to the winner!!!

Great giveaway!

I'd love to be in (I have no solid Paulsons), but 11,863 chips is close enough to "a zillion" to disqualify me.
