Thanks @Himewad! I really appreciate it. They look great!

UPS dropped off this rack of Desert Flower starburst. Edges are nice and sharp. Not sure if I will use them, I have rack of Indian Blue on the way. Going to make fracs out of them, leaning towards using the Indian Blues. So they might be trade bait.View attachment 627644View attachment 627646View attachment 627647View attachment 627648

Tease! I only need a barrel (but would be a shame to mill them as well).

Great price on those. Wish I went higher !

Waiting on my Siena, Reno Casio Indian Blues to come in. I am leaning towards though and those would be milled. If I use those, these you would see up for sale or trade bait. You would be the third person interested in a barrel. Will keep you on the list as number 3 if I barrel it out.

Your were the other bidder? lol.

Sub $1 for them was hard to say no to

I’ve been bored lately after finishing my Jack Detroit set, so decided to get into some singles for card cappers. A couple chips a week have been coming in for a little while and have a few more coming next week. Shout out to @Steppenwolf @ReallyGoodUsername @chkmte @msuroo and Feebay for the singles.

But...

I want to see the LP!

 

[BonScot]

These turned up after hanging around in Oz for a bit. Thanks to @JK_Poker for some of the most extreme packaging I’ve seen. It was like one of the Saw movies trying to figure out how to open it

Ken this is clearly a rack short!

 

[OfficerLovejoy]

Everybody knows, 23 racks is exactly one rack short of a playable set. Shame!

Amazing set, sir. Congratulations.

 

[MaxB]

I only got one new chip in the mail, but it's a good one.

If anyone has one of these (they come in black, blue, or green spots), let me know.

For my Vegas house mold set, I use the $5 chips as 5c chips for my crazy 5c/10c games, so these are relabeled as a $10 Vegas version of the Casino Queen for rebuys.

 

[Thomacetti]

Awome remote mail pr0n

Very slim chance you'all can ID these...but have a go

View attachment 628347

indeed! I, like many others here, have ‘issues’ ... If you look carefully enough, you’ll see that I do need 60x 1Ks and a barrel of 25Ks to finish both racks, and the 24th rack will be the ‘spares’

Everybody knows, 23 racks is exactly one rack short of a playable set. Shame!

Here are some

Thanks to @BonScot for the partial Trade/Sale. My WTHC cash set is pretty much complete now, could do with 1 more rack of $5s. Hate how customs treat packages, mine resulted in loose chips after they conducted there search that caused plenty of damaged chips.

Glad you got them but it’s pretty disgusting how they were just thrown back in the box.

They put them back in the white boxes and didn’t restack them, man I knew it was bad news as soon as I seen the box, and heard the rattles of loose chips. Every chippers worst nightmare

Some of the customs guys take great care to repackage and then there’s some who are complete dicks. They’ve ripped the boxes as well so obviously don’t give a shit.

I've had items damaged by US customs inspectors on several occasions (never chips, but several other items). What irks me is that they were all packages from my family in Canada, who ship with FedEx. As all FedEx shipments go through the U.S. customs can apparently have their way with them, even if they're not destined for the U.S.

Good luck trying to complain too when something gets damaged. It's ridiculous.

There’s other pictures John sent me in PM. They’ve clearly ripped the boxes and tipped the chips out along with the cardboard inserts. They couldn’t figure out how to get the cardboard insert back in the chip boxes so just threw those away and chucked the chips back in the boxes. It’s absolutely shite behaviour.

I was talking to Nawras about @Tommy ’s upcoming group buy and I mentioned I had never handled Abbiatis. He then sent me these for free! Thank you very much @Poppin92 they are great! Will be difficult to stay out of the group buy for sure. Photo turned out upside down for some reason:

Hey Eriks ! Happy they arrived safely. If you handle them by barrel it’s a even better feel. Hope you like them

 

[Mr Winberg]

What's this? A package from the US?

Can it be...?
