For Sale Two 1,000-chip Da Vinci cases (1 Viewer)

[Taghkanic]

I’m selling two Da Vinci aluminum cases, each holding 1,000 chips.

They have minor wear (some scuffs and dings). I don’t have the keys—never used them.

You get *two* for $35—the price of one on Amazon—plus $15 shipping/handling in the U.S. only.

So, $50 all-inclusive.

Payment is by PayPal. I will ship these out within hours of receiving payment, assuming the Post Office is still open, otherwise first thing the next day, excluding Sunday. Pics below.

Re: Pink arm—artwork by a friend. Notice the bullet replacing the middle finger.

(Meanwhile, no one commented on the knife in the picture... The most expensive item on the table!)

I noticed it... and the three chip cases on the floor in the top right of the first pic.

Ya, I actually have six of those... full of the dreaded dice chips. I inherited these when taking over a home game that had been running for years at another venue. They are pretty much worthless. (Anyone?)

I've been trying to unload my 1000 chip set for nearly twelve years now (free, just pay shipping)..... still no takers.

What's the breakdown? A coworker of mine might be interested in that..

I'd have to check, but I think it's 200 each of the five base colors (all white spots, of course) -- red, blue, purple, green, and white (with gray spots). One or two colors may be only 100 chips, with a couple of others at 300 counts.

Two-color Lucky Crowns, I think. "Real clay casino-grade chips, official casino weight" obv. -- 25+ lbs of slugged injection-molded ABS slick and clanky plastic goodness. Should all fit crammed into a Priority MFRB for less than $14.

Don't hold me to any of it. To the best of my recollection, they look like the pics below. I'll dig 'em out of storage if he wants them.

That's why I gave up on mine when we moved to FL. Gave half to a couple of local kids, threw the other half -- and a bunch of the 18g brass things -- away.

I have about 1,700 of these. The only reason I can think to hold onto them is if I held a bigger tournament and didn’t have enough quality chips to cover 4+ tables. But now that I have some Paulsons and ASMs, the old cheap set feels like an infestation in the house.

The only thing worse than using dice chips for a tournament would be using dice chips for a four-table tournament.

I actually played in an 8 table tournament with dice chips once about 10 years ago. About half a dozen guys pooled their matching dice chips together to create one giant abomination.

The worst part? Playing 8 hours with said chips and finishing on the bubble.

Not trying to sidetrack @BGinGA's potential sale (and generous offer), but you can find them locally on Cragislist, OfferUp, LetGo, etc. for cheaper than the cost of shipping.

I’ve played in a ton of social hall and underground tournaments with dice chips, with between 4-10 tables. Until recently there was no casino within 3+ hours of my house, so this was a thriving market. You get used it when there aren’t other options.

My very first post here was a question about a 4-5 table bar tournament that was using dice chips. (The biggest problem with the tournament was its awful awful structure, but the dice chips were a close second (tied with sticky beat paper cards and dreadful table toppers.) The folks were nice though. Maybe I should go back.
