I'll probably get flamed on this but I actually think the Neophytes are a good cheap chip and far better than the average style plastic/clay-composite chips especially at .27 a chip for 1,000 chips with free shipping.

As for them versus the DS, go for the DS at $400 for 900 chips unless you have a severe distaste for ceramics. At the original price of $600 it be a tougher call IMHO. The extra $200 would pay for a fine, custom built poker table which will have much larger impact on your game than the difference between any 2 chip styles.

I know this is probably considered a blasphemous statement on this forum given some of Stephen at BPCs recent statements and such.

And no I don't have any affiliation with BPC.
