Did you order one of their soft cases? Interested in those but thought shipping would make it too expensive.

Yes the Viper 1000. Shipping was about $45. The whole thing came in just under $100 US. Keep in mind the prices on the website are Australian dollars. I had a coupon or maybe it was on sale so that knocked a little off. With the free table topper I think I’m coming out ahead now

@TheOffalo The Viper case came in yesterday (pics are above somewhere). Very nice quality. Sides are sturdy, not just soft. The upper tray is also sturdy and put together well. I loaded it up with some minty Paulson CDIs last night and was impressed with the balance and how good it felt while moving around and using the shoulder strap. The slots fit 25 chips, although you could maybe force a 26th one in there depending on your chip condition. I also tested moving around with less than full slots of chips on each level and everything stayed in place. Dealer button slot is the smaller standard size (39 mm I think?) Time will tell, but my initial impression is that the case will hold up very well over time. The upper tray was easy to remove with the straps and I felt no concern doing so with it fully loaded, everything was secure. Anyhow, just wanted to give you my mini-review since you expressed interest. I think this case is worth the price, even w/ shipping included. I give it Tonysquander's 5 Chip Seal of Approval.

DANG! That's a lot of Bounty chips. I'm looking forward to getting an invite to the 14 table tournament you are obviously planning! :D

I tend to over-order. I probably needed two barrels of bounties and a barrel of all-ins at the most. But when opportunity knocked, I answered. Then I took opportunity to a nice dinner and we snuggled by the fire.
 
When @RivieraDanny comes to Vegas & brings TRKs with him! Appreciate it! :cool

Then a few singles for the collection! Ever since I saw I think it was @Seeking Alpha Social Club with the rack or so of Kings Crown $5s with the Sharkey's inlay I've kind of always wanted one. Well I found one on eBay! Tempted to take one inlay off and leave the other side (maybe not).

NICE!!

I recommend leaving as is and buying a second chip without the inlay. They show up on eBay fairly frequent.
 
Who says you can’t make a good decision after having several drinks on a Friday night? Booyah! Excellent packaging, great communication, minty chips, fast shipping and a seamless transaction. You cannot really ask for anything more than that. Buy, sell, and trade with confidence, or just give your chips away, to @doublebooyah85

Thanks!

I have another one ;) but just thought it would be cool. I'll leave it as is for now.
I hate the Sharkey's sticker. I peeled it off--the chip is nicer, without the sticker, imo. I can't believe there is any less value without vs with. In fact, I'd argue that the chip is worth more without the sticker.
 
Rare back to back mail day over here! This one from @Eriks who helped me buy, receive and reship this set from a swedish auction site. I've been looking for some $1s and $5s for a good while, and this completes my set!

Lovely surprise that @Eriks also included some of his awesome custom cpc scrowns. Thanks a lot!

The set is now 1000+ chips, but I'll sell off a little bit to make it 700 or 800 total, which will be enough for my 1 table game.

@BlueMerle funnily enough im actually in Hendon now where mr.beavers was supposed to be from. Wonder if he is hiding anymore chips haha
He’ll likely be at the G in Luton playing their mixed game later if you want to ask him. Or the Vic…maybe try there first actually :ROFL: :ROFLMAO:

Love these chips though. Nice score.
