Five more auctions are online, brings the total chips sold to 6,300 chips. (The auctions state that they only have 50 racks of 100 chips).
I like this new wording: "I BELIEVE BUT I AM NOT 100% SURE THAT THESE WERE MADE BY PAULSON "

I talked to their warehouse. I do feel that they're legit. They just lucked out when ESPN sold off the set props and they bought a trailer of stuff.
It does appear that there will not be a second season of Tilt. They are selling all the chips, including ones from scenes at other casinos.

It's kinda hard to believe that someone didn't think about buying these chips. I guess I would have thought that maybe another season was in the works (although I am not surprised to hear that it is not) . Wonder what someone could have gotten these chips for had they known the right person.
Hope they come through for you Ten....can't wait to see some close up's

I saw that last night, seems like the same auction but like you said the chips are way different. I hope everything works out for you Ten.

Look at the chip in the close-up on the ESPN picture, now turn the chip over to the other face, now the edge spots are right.  I still hope you get your order.
Buy The way if you where to guess How many chips do you have? exspecially if yo are going to stay up all night and cook 'em in your oven |

I have, to my complete satisfaction, determined that these are legit.
I have been in contact with the seller, and the actual buyer of the chips. We talked at great length about the show, the production, and the sale of the set pieces. I am expecting to get a copy of the sanitized invoice from the ESPN production company that did Tilt.
What's funny (sad for ESPN) is that these weren't supposed to be on the trailer of stuff bought by this warehouse. When ESPN saw the auctions, they tried to get them back (not take them) by offering to trade real gaming tables from the chips. The guy said no, because at that point they were selling like hotcakes.
I have hi-rez photos of the chips too, if anyone wants to see them. They are indeed the falme mold from Blue Chip (there was no doubt of that).
