Vendor Sale Tables, Games, Chess etc. Update with possible closed factory tour. (1 Viewer)

[David Spragg]

Following on from this thread:
https://www.pokerchipforum.com/threads/tables-games-chess-sets-etc.112483/

I know I dropped the ball on this. Several issues like my pics not being good enough have made me consider a possible change of tack on these.

I will be at the factory from 18th - 28th October. I planned to take better pics and post sales 'as I go' that week.
However, there are a number of things that would be impossible to ship.
So I'm considering inviting interested buyers to the factory any time from late afternoon Saturday 26 October to end of day Sunday 27 October and I'd throw in a 'non-operational' factory tour (possibly on both days) with plenty of time for food and drink, talking chips etc.

I will at least get the pics I have posted soon so people have an idea what they are looking at.

Comments in this thread please .........

Where is the factory located?

 

[David Spragg]

Near Portland, Maine.

I am obviously not in the market for things that are unshippable even in CONUS... But is there a chance, that the factory tour will be recorded/allowed to be recorded?

 

[BarrieJ3]

May be worthwhile to post even not great photos or descriptions of some items. early.

Like for me personally, will be curious to see any full size roulette wheels, maybe full size baccarat table/roulette table, etc. I’m in the area-ish once in September and once in October, no idea if I’d have capability to pick up in person and drive back to storage, but it’s a possibility would just need to plan ahead.

Anyways, interested!

No chance I'm afraid.

 

[Dingdingding]

No chance I'm afraid.

Dang, i would really love to see that. Maybe at some point you could make something like that happen. Only with what you can show of course...

But i guess showing people what making these clay chips is actually like would be a big advertisement for the craftmanship and quality of the product. And make it easier to explain to others why we are spending that money on "some gaming tokens".

I’m interested in the chess sets, looking at the dates for coming there.

 

[Timmah]

Backgammon checkers would be interesting.

 

[extreme517]

Yes, I am in for anything related to backgammon or dominoes.

 

[David Spragg]

Okay, I'll try and post some pics. Stand alone chess boards first. I think there are 15 including duplicates in 8 styles like these.

 

[David Spragg]

Next, stand alone chess piece sets.
My notes say there are 15 sets including dupes. Here are 5 examples.

 

[David Spragg]

This seems to be a set with wooden box and board that is the lid of the box.

 

[David Spragg]

This one is a complete chess table.

 

[David Spragg]

Then a bridge table. Presumably a decent quality one as it had a $400 wholesale price 25 years ago.

 

[David Spragg]

A folding card table. Again with a decent historical price.

 

[David Spragg]

A couple of chairs

 

[David Spragg]

Another table.

 

[David Spragg]

Some folding table tops (might be dupes of some). Some or all with carry cases.

 

[David Spragg]

Small roulette wheel

 

[David Spragg]

Dartboards. I think there are 2 of the Bandit.

 

[David Spragg]

Small blackjack table top (folding)

 

[David Spragg]

A whole bunch of cloths (15-20) in different colors and sizes including a complete roll.

 

[David Spragg]

Full size unfinished poker table with accessories.

 

[David Spragg]

Large games box.

 

[David Spragg]

Various old misc games (sorry some pics are upside down)

 

[David Spragg]

Roulette layout with Craps layout on reverse.

 

[David Spragg]

Battery operated shufflers.

 

[David Spragg]

Solitaire

 

[David Spragg]

That's all the pics I have for now. There might be more stuff than this and there are some duplicates. I'll be at the factory from Friday for 11 days if anyone has questions etc.
