Curious as I have a similar breakdown at this point, what are your starting stacks?

Dave

I do a adapted T20k base. Normally 19k (gotta have the game over by midnight) starting stacks. 100/200 starting blinds

 

[Eloe2000]

Geez... paid for these yesterday late morning and got them today! I may have to use FedEx more often. They arrived 180 days before my next poker game instead of 184 days before my next poker game if I had used USPS! Can’t afford to wait!

Spoiler: they are pink and they are real

Camouflage 25s. Careful you don’t lose them

Might be best to avoid snapping up this bargain from the fugly table thread...

 

[HaRDHouSeiNC]

Filthy buggers, but worth the trouble.

I just have to say these AS T25s really pop in person. This pic does not do this chip justice. It’s unbelievable.

Well for whatever reason my packages were routed through the APO in Doha, Qatar where they are very strict about gambling, alcohol, tobacco and other fun stuff. But it doesn't make sense for them to take stuff that isn't destined for them. I'm probably just shit out of luck and they'll claim that I shipped a prohibited item.

On the bright side I got my $600 stimulus

According to the USPS site I can't even file a claim until 21 days after receipt

I can put money on the fact that they were confiscated in Qatar without a notice left inside the box informing the next courier or person receiving the shipment that the contents were confiscated. I used to live in Jordan for many years and have seen this happen in various parts of the region. Unfortunate but almost nothing you can do, unless maybe they’re hidden in a Teddy bear’s belly or something similar lol

Cause this site isn't strange enough with money moving around and the USPS being uses to ship high value small but dense objects around, let's add smuggling into the mix...

I'd put a lot more weight on the probability that they were simply stolen by a postal worker than I would on "confiscated in Qatar without a notice left inside the box".

New addition to the house mold relabel set. Surprised how awesome these look in person.

Will be giving them the red denom and Las Vegas, Nevada treatment next.

 

[Thomacetti]

[PocketAces]

Last mail day of the year! What a way to finish 2020, thx @Sambukan - great addition to my Cali BOH collection And thank you for the cool deck of cards!!!

With 4 packages in the mail, among which my CPC custom and a few racks on standby waiting to be milled or shipped, I know 2021 will be off to a strong (mail pr0n) start. Wishing you guys all the best in 2021!

It’s happened before without any note whatsoever. Also possible to be stolen by postal worker. We’ll never know lol

Having the Guru of poker chip customs living close by (like 2 blocks) is a real treat. I remember when I first joined, and made my first sale. It was to @Perthmike , a rack of THC stamped minty chips. He needed them to go to Gear and my journey down the customs road was at its beginning. Still loving it...

Got some more work coming up...a lot of fracs by way of overlabel, and a few more Empress $1s for murder.

Thanks @Gear

Speaking of the label mastermind himself, it was also his birthday on Dec 28th for those who didn’t know.

Happy Birthday @Gear
