-Ash | how many chips does it really hold? the website says 500-570. I'm trying to find a case solution for 1200 chips. I dont really know if i like that big 1200 chip monster $200 case.

You can buy it for about the same price as a bird cage. You can get one here for under $100 including shipping. (No, its not my auction). http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...131088807&rd=1 | I bought one of these last week. It arrived yesterday. It is very nice for the price. Now I have a home for my customs when they arrive.

Leonard | My idea for carrying around expensive chips is to go to the sporting goods store and buy one of those heavy duty aluminum amunition cases. I saw something recently at Dicks that was really nice. If one uses cheap chips then the 600 chip case is my choice and carry two if needed. Why risk them all in one big case? For shear show I would bring them in my acrylic birdcage just because it looks so cool. But that trolley case above may do the trick best and I'm going to get one.

I've been looking at the birdcage to eventually hold my 1000pc set of custom chips once I decide what I want. Found this site earlier...... http://www.pokersupply.com/1000car.html $44.99
With 10 chip racks plus shipping is around $75.

They're available on eBay. Also, the 650 ct case that that Acehighsupply sells is exceptional. It can be found here: http://www.acehighsupply.com/product...products_id=96.
The Kokopelli group buy was through Ace and my chips came in the black 650 ct. case. It's by far the nicest aluminum case that I've ever seen and I've got quite a few different ones.
