Envelope was so bright pink I'm surprised it wasn't Gwen.

Grail set secured! Need to decide what to use for $1s until the fateful day some originals are released.

beautiful! That’s the age old question for Dunes owners - what to use for $1s.
I’d suggest another Vegas house mold. This is what I use - total mismatch, but you gotta find something you can be happy with.

There’s no safe place left for me on the internet. Seems like they love Chinese knockoff copies too. Cap-dash mold? You mean small crown knockoff?

Every time I see those chips I think of this.

13 years... And finally a new mail box arrived. Even two as I was on holidays. And you know...it feels damn good to be back. Now it's gonna be time to motivate the guys into playing more regularly.

First I got a batch of Detroit 1$ to finish my rack. Thank you to @WedgeRock who helped me with that task. They look in great condition and it made me realize that mine need some clean up.

Next was a package from @kaimat with a lot of Moss Green solid that will be used as fracs and as part of a solid set I'm slowly building. They look perfect, the condition is great, very sharp. It the sale thread @NotRealNameNoSir asked about if it was possible to clean the day blue chips dirt. I can't speak about the day blue, but the few moss green that had similar dirt as the day blue cleaned easily.

I can't be more happy with those two package. It was hard to come back from holidays but it was a good come back motivation.

Now time to hunt for:

- mgm snappers
- mgm 1$ (need to add more to my set)
- PCR T5 secondary oversized.

Can't wait for the journey.

Cheers guys.

I looked for $1s that were in good shape, then I cleaned them up with a Dawn and a tooth brush. EZPZ. Sent extras just in case some got damaged in the delivery, but I am happy to hear that they arrived!
 
Box 3 arrived today. 2500 chips. Was hoping to get them in play this weekend, but I don’t have time to clean them. Next month…

They do clean up well.

I used this sponge and warm soapy water. They’re a tad smoother than I’d like, but I assume it’s because they’re clean.

Highly appreciated the extra. Thanks.

What does Dawn mean in this context. They shine. I cleaned some of mind today with a sponge but didn't get near to what you achieved.

Dawn is just the brand name of liquid dish soap used for hand cleaning plates and glasses and known for cutting through grease.
 
Paris $1s and get @Gear to sort new textured inlays? Same spot pattern as the original $1 + cheap and easy to acquire.
Generally yes but condition would not quite match as most Paris are on the sharper side. A blue 418 is most people's preferred stand-in but I'm considering a blue solid and going with the Sultan inlay as well.

Now THAT, is a great shout my friend!
