When you're expecting a mail day and your postal carrier is already over an hour late with his normal delivery:

 

[LeGold]

PCF - taking tracking to a new level!

 

[jpietrella]

BANNED, sir.

 

[RivieraDanny]

I had two of these already (the frac and the $25). Just got the other two in the mail. You may poo-poo RHC chips, and I do too. BUT, if they are old enough like these, they are leaded with textured inlays, and they are just wonderful. They aren't quite the equivalent of leaded THC chips, but they are as close as any other chip can get.

This is not a particularly easy family reunion to pull off. It took me three transactions spaced over several years. I *LOVE* that the denomination is color-matched to the base color of the chip. Such a cool little inlay nugget on these.

Have always loved these. The i lay is great, and they definitely are heavy. I would love to have a playable set.

I helped put @Skagglio on a mint rack of Empress Joliet a month or so ago, a couple of weeks ago I nominated his set for the best relabel of 2022. Then this showed up in the mail. Thanks @Skagglio !

Reported for bribery.

The worst part is knowing all of your shipments have been delivered, but not being able to go pick them up across the border.

 

[allforcharity]

Another few racks to add to the horde. Once I get these cleaned up and oiled I'll see about getting a proper family photo.

Look at post #47, observe the weight difference between normal leaded chips and The Gold Mine chips.

Just arrived: a Barrington table carry bag found by @MrBoosh! It really makes the table easier to transport, high marks from me so far. Thanks for the recommendation!

It's a gamechanger if you have to move and transport a regular Barrington table every now and then. Glad you found it helpful!!!

Side note to anyone thinking about buying. If you have an ESPN table it is just a little bigger than the regular Barringtons even though the graphics on the ad say it is only 5 inches wide when closed. It is more like 6 to 6.5. So unfortunately these bags only work for the regular tables.

I got labels in the mail....and put them on some chips.

No offense taken.

Struggling to see what the issue is here? You're murdering a fantasy chip so you can put a new denomination on it — so it can be used more efficiently in your game as... A fantasy chip?

No no no, we don't need rationale here. Back to our regularly scheduled program.

They are now the way I always wanted them to be....I have extras if anyone wants them. They will shrink and be useless eventually.
