Last but not least, the scrub donkeys have arrived!!!!!! Just want to send a huge thank you to @Marhault for all his efforts with this group buy! That’s so cool of you. Also, a special thanks to your family for helping pack all of the orders. I’m pretty sure I speak for everyone in the group buy when I say we are grateful for their efforts.

something special arrived today


this package came from Istanbul, Turkey

first look

second look

and now some pr0n

It’s the „Casino Grand Maksim“, also called „Maksim Gazinosu“.

First opened in 1921, this place was what we would call a nightclub today and home for lots of turkish celebrities.

In 1990 turkey legalized casino gambling, until the gambling ban in 1998 there were over 60 casinos in the country.

I have virtually no info on these chips or the casino, i‘m assuming the chips are probably bud jones, the plaques are very likely B&G.
the 43mm chips weigh 11.3g.

sadly i can’t find any pictures of chips / equipment from this casino on the internet.

if anybody has some info to share i‘d be very happy.

Been trying for weeks to ship 3 packages out, obviously to no avail. But wait, the post office is opening back up today for 3 hours!? Dibs!

Queue the 50 minute wait in line and 250 euro shipping cost (lol I will obviously not be selling chips outside France until we move)

Well my mail day overlaps with Brie... but these little notes of paper mean the world to me! I'm keeping all of them and they are going in the poker room! @Irish I am speechless sir! This is again one of those insane acts of Kindness!! I was hoping that when the meet up happened you would remember about these proto type PCNY buttons... but also if it was forgotten no bif deal! They are amazing and promise they will be displayed in the card room. I never wanted to ask about The Barrel House button... I knew they were made in limited quantities and I didn't want to be "that guy" as I know one day I will get to see all of these beauties together and get some felt time! With Bries infatuation with Horses this one will be loved in our house and not only displayed but also get some felt time!! Can't wait to see you again brother!! Thank you soo much!!

@Godzilla28 and @Phish1321 Mardi Gras are a pain in the Butt to find, thank you so much for helping us out and making a trade to help our set grow!! Truly hoping one day to get these in play @krafticus game!

We are getting close now!! Again Brie and I truly appreciate the help!! Awesome mail day!!
