Recently noticed I have similar chips in different sets. Brothers from another mother.

So what off-colour hot stamp are you going to use for your $5? And can you get 2-4 racks in similar condition?

Ah, the chipper degen life....

i stumbled upon this rather vague eBay listing. i decided to take the chance. i was pleasantly surprised to find out that these cards were jumbo.

there is only a few left, at 5.99 a piece for a jumbo deck

CPC and you will never going wrong !!!!

CPC and you will never going wrong !!!!

They are super nice at first blush. I ordered some of the KGB panda web molds in a group buy here (haven't even been here a week, you people are bad influences) and honestly excited to see them side by side. I already obtained several sample sets of ceramics from brpropoker.com and I quite like them, and expect to like the hybrid web mold even more. Not as nice as CPC, but better than the china clay or plastic+slug chips I've played with. I think a full custom set of CPC chips (or 2... you need one cash and one tournament right?) is my eventual goal. Like, my personal poker chip summit. But I also think it'll take me a few years to get there. I figure the hybrid ceramics will let me iterate my design ahead of the big day, hehe.

Web mold it’s nice but I’ll prefer CPC
Save some money and you can make a nice custom CPC set

Great day for a dealer button collector

This mail day is from months ago, but I suppose it's better to post late than never.

A little over eight years ago I posted this rack to the "rare racks" thread before the "one of a kind" rack thread existed and speculated that there could be other racks out there. Once the TRK order cards were uploaded to The ChipGuide I upgraded my opinion from "could be" to "should be". I can now upgrade that opinion to "are".

First rack:

Latest addition:

Reunited after 40+ years:

Beautiful chips

 

[upNdown]

Thanks for the great deal @T_Chan

Now I just have to wait patiently for somebody to spill a coffee on my table.

 

[AfterTheFact]

Freaking Outstanding!

 

[suchj0sh]

TRK’s via @Okku, Harrah’s from the auction site. Need 1x of the Jessie Beck’s to finish out the second barrel if anyone has another. Wouldn’t mind getting more of these Harrah’s $1’s too if anyone has any!

 

[BamaT8ter]

 

[AlbinoDragon]

A few items from this last week while I was at work (and a little bored under cloudy skies ). More Vegas singles for that part of the collection (unfortunately, the trend of hot-stamps and horrid ICONs) and a silver strike.

Fat hats in the house!
I could not resist.

Thanks @JeepologyOffroad

[WedgeRock]

It's been over a year since I've added any Four Queens 50¢ chips. But thanks to @StevenB88, five new chips have been acquired, 2 x 2002 and 3 x 2004.

That makes a total of 104 x 2002 and 46 x 2004.

 

[WedgeRock]

Also arriving today are 96 more watermelon birds from @StevenB88. If you have any doubt, this man evaluates chip condition fairly. VG+ on the top, VG on the bottom. Super satisfied with how he represented them.

The whole family...

Some need some mineral oil and they should be good to go!
