Yay!!! Might’ve been a little tipsy when I ordered so many 1k’s. Don’t worry I hopped on another GB to balance it out. High roller tournament set of one of my favorite sets of all time!!

Finally made it to my PO Box after a few weeks away. Lots of swag, including some lovely goodies from @PAZ and @JWC —thanks, Paul and John!

Not technically on my doorstep yet but they leave china Monday 5 day shipping by DHL!

Aaah so those were the chips in the background of some recent pics Tina sent me. I could barely make out my chips let alone these in the background. They are so bad at taking photos

Mine should ship next week once they've remade some denoms.

Found these off forum, and was not sure on their condition based on the pics in the listing which were horrible, but I took a gamble. Maybe some of you saw it as well? Anyways, they seem to clean up pretty well based on me just trying to do a barrel just now. Will take a lot of time and elbow grease though, and I need to stock up on more magic erasers, but I think the result will be nice. Only issue (which really sucks) is that most of them have yellowed inlays. After all is said and done I'll likely end up with 100+ with yellowed inlays and a barrel worth with nice white inlays.

Anyone have any of these? Cruise ship from 1992. I guess @Windwalker probably has a minty set from the big cruise ship deal?

Nice score on some nice chips!

“Big cruise ship deal.” Heh.

 

[liftapint]

I have been fortunate to have had a lot of great chip-related mail lately!

But I wanted to show off one delivery in particular. Check out the dealer button holders that @BearMetal made me to go with my Boneyard customs. Sweet, right!!

Oh yeah, I was the lucky winner of the auction for sample set of his customs too. They are a homerun for sure!!! Love them.

Thank you so much, @BearMetal!!!

So glad you like them, Mel! Happy I was finally able to give something back to you.

Saw some on eBay as well , but mine came from a very confusing FB marketplace ad.

Anyways, anyone know of other denoms or more chips out there somewhere?

I know it's only like 8 grams, but that's a pretty chip. That hot stamp die was made BY HAND and took a lot of time - it's one of the best ever.

Lol, that's horrible. Hope you'll get refunded for that. I'm not too experiencee with eBay, but I thought they usually are on the buyers side in disputes? These are from a Facebook marketplace ad, but the the picture from the seller was completely horrible so I guess it could be the same seller?

It’s all good. They are just chips after all! I always pay with a credit card…mine offers me buyers protection (eBay won’t ever pay a penny back)

 

[ReallyGoodUsername]

They’re back and for good this time!

Thanks to @black_spade for these:

And eBay for these:
