Hello all...

Well here I was getting ready to order my first set of chips. I have been playing for 3 years or so now but havent ever bought my own set due to the fact that all of my home game pals have sets and well I just didnt ever find anything I really liked (glad I didnt now...)! Recently I got the bug to finally get my own, partly due to just wanting them but also beacuse I am setting up a series of home tourneys were we will end up sending an overall winner to the 2007 WSOP. Anyhoo, long story short here I was all ready to buy a set of ASM horseheads and I stumble upon this site! Ughhhh now I have a lot more to read and a lot more to think about! lol Seriuosly though I am glad I did.. really like what I see and read so far.. kind of feel a bit lost but hopefully I will find my way around and how all of this works! I see you do group buys... I better figure out how to that works fast looks like your setting up a paulson buy.. thats tempting! How does one get involved in that? Thats rhetorical I will figure it out.. I think! Anyway, just wanted to say hello... prob be asking some advice from some of you before I order now.. in fact I do have a few questions on custom chips maybe I can get some opinions!

let me give you what I was going to buy...
1000 ASM Horsehead chips no inlay.. no denomination on them at all..with the 312 edgespot (prefer the 3d14 but you cant get that with out some custom inlay label) so basically a plain base color and then edgespots.. I guess I like a really clean look! I was ordering 5 colors for the use in our home tourneys as they will represent values as follows (#) = qnty
grey 100 (400)
black 500 (300)
orange 1000 (150)
purple 5000 (100)
pink or maybe green not sure 10000 (50)

so my questions for feedback are...

Edge Spots -
1- do you all prefer single color or mixed color edgespots? (meaning each chip has a different edgespot color or the all have the same color edge spot)

2- Also do you like a constant edge spot pattern or more of a progression of the edgespots? (see the ASM H designs just bought by one of the members here in custom chip I think it was the dbl D chips they have progression of the edgespots)

I guess I have rambled enough.. any other insight or advice anyone can share before I buy my first set would be helpful and appreciated..
