Windwalker’s Chipping Journey in Pr0n0grAph1C Detail (5 Viewers)

[upNdown]

My snap thought was, "OMG OMG OMG...", but then I checked my wallet. GLWS!

Yeah, i have enough in my checking account to cover a single rack from most of the sets I can imagine going up for sale. But it’s always interesting to see unique sets hit the market.

[Goldfish]

I just Woke up from a nightmare that went like this…..

when I first saw Krish’s post about upcoming sales I did a little dance…..

then i developed a plan…….

then I got prepared……

then I fell asleep and missed out on everything…….

 

[navels]

New sales coming today. Maybe even a couple of grail / “only playable set” sets included.

New Year's Resolution was: spend less time online.
New Year's Resolution is: talk with a robot voice more often.

I think everyone needs to have a few cocktails and then come back to look at the sales threads. I’m working on one now too

Yeah I’m already working towards the state where I fell buying one of those sets is a brilliant idea.

I’m doing a wine, beer, whiskey tour

So far, this is the closest I’ve gotten to a true cali-color mixed TRK set. I have enough of all of the chips to make a very nice playable set. I do have the option of using the Normandie $5s, but they’re single color spots, which seems wrong.

LMK if you change your mind about using those King Castles

Not bad, but I don’t think those Mapes really work with the rest of the set. I’ll do you a solid and take them off your hands though, I’m helpful like that.

It's funny. I just adore the damn South Tahoe's. I missed out on those long ago and always regretting it. Good choice.

Heart eyes.

 

[ImCrossland]

And….. I want the SB $5 again. Damn you 3D14!

 

[chrismurda]

Heart eyes.

Wow. Definitely worth a week in the doghouse from my wife and the flight down to play with that lineup!!

 

[Rieguy]

Heart eyes.

If I saw this pic two years ago I'd only think, "nice chips". Now I'm trying to figure out if I have a mental condition because a stack lineup of chips that's over ten but aren't barrels has me irrationally irritated .

Anyway, these are fire!

 

[jpietrella]

stack lineup of chips that's over ten but aren't barrels

Thank you! I couldn't figure out what was irking me about this photo, but that's definitely it. Are stacks of 15x easier to photograph aesthetically?

I don't like the 1 here. Colors are ok but the different spot pattern and stamp are weird, maybe even the same for the frac, but less so.

Hot stamps are like TRK in a sense. People often message me asking for help to build a hot stamp set, but most don't realize how limited the options really are. You have to make compromises like different style stamps otherwise you will likely never be able to put together a set.

Yep.

It's very hard. That's what she said.

Yep, I get it, just giving my honest opinion on how it looks. Plus I know it's not leaded, and that bugs me too.

A purple 25 would look good in that line up.

Leaded hot stamp blue 1s in quantity and decent condition almost don’t even exist at all(with that style stamp anyways. Claimstake would look great here). Also I find with hotstamps the difference between leaded and non leaded feels less noticeable than with inlaid chips.
