That is one heck of a '98 CDI set you seem to have built @allforcharity. Updated family photos would be great to see!

Will do, but the chippies must look their best before the family photo. That means a good ultrasonic scrubbing and a teensy bit of oil to make them shine!
 
Thanks @72o!

It is official ladies and gentlemen!! I am going to be that idiot with 3 card covers!! I beat brie home today and she asked me not to check the mail box... ok maybe a Christmas present or something inside... she hands me a small bubble nailer with my own name on it, thinking ok she put whatever it was away and I got a single or something cool. I open it to a bounty chip that I havent seen with a horse... that I didn't buy... she tells me you have to share!! Also was a piece of white paper towel which was obviously holding a chip... inside that paper towel... a gift from one of the most kind people in the world!! Mr. Bill @detroitdad i don't even know how to say thank you and my breath was taken away... starring at what i thought I would never own. We are still new around here but anyone that knows me also knows I am obsessed with Pirates, from the moment I saw pillage and plunder I knew I was looking at the absolute most amazing set of customs I will ever see in my opinion!! They are absolutely out of this world!! This $100 chip I actually got to see in person at our first meetup @krafticus game... I knew I joined way too late in the game to ever be able to purchase one. Bill understanding my absolute obsession with this hobby agreed to give me my dream chip the first time I make it to Michigan to play! Needless to say I hit up my good buddy @Lil Tuna and said dude... I have to get to a Michigan game!! While I appreciate you sending this ahead of time, Brie and I most definitely will make it out there in the near future sir! To break up one of the most coveted sample sets out there to make another members dream come to life... I am speechless and honestly holding back tears! You will never see me without it Bill!! You have a friend for life and I look forward to the day I can repay that kind of generosity!! Its absolutely impossible to put into words what this gift means to me and today will never be forgotten!! Always your chipping brother Ben!!!!

Some awesome pRon I received from Mark today @hippieartworks. This is some truly amazing works of art. I am also going to get a HTF ceramic Dragonara DB and Jetons from him this week or next. These acrylic DBs are top notch. Thanks again Mark.

And ^THAT^ is what this hobby is all about, and at the core, what drew me in so many years ago. It's NOT about the money.
