The first set I got was the Marlboro set about 11 years ago. I was in college and actually said "Boys, it don't get no better than this!"
Then I hosted a tourney about 8 years ago and bought the "nice" diamond "clay" chips. Paid about $230 for 900 chips.

People thought I was crazy buying such "nice" chips.
Now, they think I'm totally mental with my custom Blue Chips.(pics comin soon)
