Sure thing - I know @Ethan was sweating it as much as I was, for sure!

Not as exciting as I was hoping... I was really hoping the chips got to see the world, visit a few continents, get exposure to a few new cultures, maybe even find themselves spiritually. Nope, they were stuck in a Chicago warehouse for 4 months :cautious:

Speaking of sea the world...

I had a package from New York City>Miami>Dominican Republic (Sat there for 4-6 wks)>Chicago>Dallas and journey took about 4 months, my eyeglass place sent me another pair in January so when they eventually showed up in April, I got a 2fer. Don't know what the USPS was thinking when they sent my shit to the DR.

See this is what I was hoping for. A package that had goals and a plan. 6 weeks on a nice DR beach sounds wonderful!
 
Give me a few hours…

Feel like I've been getting packages several times a week for weeks now lol.

Thanks to @doublebooyah85 for these murdered Jack Cincy secondary 100s. Saves me a lot of work.

Since I've been buying so many chips, I needed more trays to store them. @chrismurda came in with a listing of Chipco trays at the perfect time! These are great for chips like Abbiati and I like them for minty Paulsons as these are a little wider. They will house my future card mold chips.

Were these the ones from the Casino Bank?
They sold many lots recently, but yes that I know of this was the last good condition lot. @FordPickup92 and I have owned these in the past but these are in much better condition than those were. They are 9.5 grams so not leaded but damn they have an amazing feel to them, definitely feel buttery like leaded chips. Probably won't work for our plan, buy first then figure it our right? Lol

Yeah, they had some in Excellent condition for like $400, which I didn't think was too bad given the condition and the fact that they are probably one of the nicest $1 chips of all-time. The fact that they feel as though are leaded is just an added bonus — will see if I can harvest some in Vegas next May! Hope they work for your plans!
 
Nice little mail day for @FordPickup92 and myself yesterday

Excessive Hooker Juice absolutely free of charge... or was that built into the price? Really hard to tell anymore! Is there a "National Shortage" on hooker juice now and that's why chip prices keep going up and up??
Ben I harvested these a few years ago and that place is gross. The carpet was literally torn up. I did play roulette and craps and was able to cherry pick a nice few barrels. But THEN I hit the mother lode when I went to the cage and spoke to the manager and she hooked me up with a new mint rack! Not sure who I sold them too but they were super nice.

So 8 grams after you get all that hooker juice off! Amiright lol
 
You guys didn't seriously think I was letting this one get away, did you? Sorry not sorry, fellow bidders. My only regret is someone beat me to the punch for the Chipguide update.

The lifelong quest to convince @FDLmold to sell me his original quarter begins...

I imagine there's a hoard of 25c and $5 chips somewhere that will devalue our chips some day. But for now, we can enjoy their relative uniqueness. Full complete unbreakable set of WA inlaid fracs shown for historical reference. Thank you @ReallyGoodUsername and @HaRDHouSeiNC for the riffle and roxbury quarters.

Happy to help. The whole line up must have been really amazing to see on opening day.

Also wow not sure if I've ever seen that Skyway Park Bowl 25c.. maybe but for every one of those I've probably seen 200 50c lol

It is rare to find a Skyway 25c chip. Finding that, the Riffle 25c, or the Roxbury 25c, would be a great chipping day.
