Man, maybe I'm not trying hard enough but why can I never find these types of estate sales? Mine are always filled with cans of buttons and tea cup sets.

Try being in Canada. Absolutely nothing up here. Except higher taxes, colder weather, shittier version of Amazon.... the list is endless. Oh, and when we are able to find something the shipping always kills the deal. Oh Canada!

Just remember that lots of people left Scotland to go live in Canada. WTF does that say about us? :ROFL: :ROFLMAO:
 
Finally finished my sample set with this hundo

To borrow a quote @ReallyGoodUsername from another thread, “Sploooooosh!”

Oh, the things I’d do for a playable set of Aria chips. Hands down the best live Vegas chips around. :love:
The last time I was there (precovid) it was fairly easy getting chips at Aria.

It's been so long since I've gotten all my chips out I actual forgot about the house mold casino set I started. The Aria $1 is definitely my favorite.
 
@RainmanTrail
Just bought from eBay for only $226? :unsure:;)

Ya, it was on eBay

Congrats on finishing the sample, the struggle is real sometimes! I recall trying to track down a T500 to complete my Binion's WSOP Paulson sample set - in the end, after missing out on a couple, I paid whatever it took! I don't even have the sample set anymore, lol. Sometimes I feel like the journey is almost more rewarding/exciting than the final result.

I am so glad that I have never been interested in collecting sample sets... or TRKs... definitely glad about that :ROFL: :ROFLMAO:
 
Honestly! I’m so thrilled to be able to own and play the Pick Hobsons that it’ll be in the theme game for a while!!! Never thought I’d own a set at the prices. And now that they’re trending the prices are thru the roof on some rather common chips. Oh well. I LOVE EM! Theme night!View attachment 683499

Rubber duckie stuff aside, how much for 1 lonely glass? lol
 
One man's trash is another man's treasure?
Honestly there’s a lot of stuff I don’t know why people buy new. You can go to a few estate sales and pretty much equip a house with great quality stuff. Not soft furniture or any of that shit, but good kitchenware, appliances, absolutely shit tons of bar ware, art, audio equipment, and misc collectibles, almost all of it made in an era when they made stuff to last a lifetime. You just have to hunt for a while.

Hunters gonna hunt

those all came out great!

I couldn't resist and secured me one of those jack cincy sample sets. I gotta say, the snapper really is impressive. Definitely the strongest chip out of the lineup for me.

IMG_20210422_170414_1.jpg


cool all in plaque!

IMG_20210422_165810_1.jpg


amazing products @One Eyed Dollar ! That racker stacker alone is simply amazing and helped a lot with this little pron session.

IMG_20210422_171205_1.jpg


fk yeah, the limit set is coming along nicely! Just 3 more racks to go to reach 900. ;)

IMG_20210422_172122_1.jpg


I know, I'm late to the party, but yes, these are amazing in person. They'll replace the IOC $5s in my IOC set to give it more of a punch.

IMG_20210422_172721_1.jpg


finally my flamingo nl set is complete! The fuchsias will be my fracs and a second rack of $5s will round off the set.

IMG_20210422_173155.jpg


and here is @Mr_Y3RAC s future $10 value chip. Congratulations Clemens, these are freaking beautiful.

Also, those IOC buttons are fire; great work @FordPickup92.
 
Nice haul and yet more yellows! You'll have to let me in on your secret in how to catch those :P
