Well, this is about the last month of mail days combined. I decided I’d start collecting card set ups, mostly vintage Kems, to keep myself from buying more poker chips. Um, the chips may not be the problem. This got out of hand quickly….

Have you ever had an itch that wouldn't go away? There's one itch I've had for 10+ years. I've been scratching this itch since July 28th, 2012:

I didn't set out to build a limit set at first. I liked the chips in a NL set along with solid metallic gold quarters with black hotstamps, but I could never find higher denomination chips that I liked with them. Instead, I decided to make a limit set and pair the Silks $1s with $20 Matsui presidential plaques. Today, I received some sweet, sweet relief:

I think the itch is finally scratched...

Thanks to everyone who has helped me along the way. I can't remember everyone, and I don't keep detailed transaction logs, but I'd like to thank @liftapint, @BGinGA, @Weckedy, @John Conor, and @TRKingChips for either helping me with the set, helping me plan the set, or just for chatting about these chips along the way.

Quite recently, I bought some great chips from a great seller.

I received the package and found one damaged chip…otherwise minty…

I reached out to Elvis and without any delay, the guy sends me a free dead mint replacement all the way from Singapore. Talk about a great seller! I’ve done multiple amazing transactions with @steam and the service level is consistently good. Fast shipping. Effective comms. Great guy to deal with.

Glad you received the chip replacement safely :) Happy New Year Nav!
 
I had a full set of 2nd series GPK back in the day. Pretty sure I sold them in the early days of eBay. 80s were a great time to grow up.
Never could get a lot of the 2nd series, even when I was a kid. I have several but never had the full 1st or 2nd. Used to have full 3rd-7th and still have most of them. Collecting those and Mad magazines was a lot of fun.
