This just underscores that you have to do some math before you buy. 5star puts up some excellent deals if you are patient. Like 900 faux clays with cases for $42.00 shipped to my doorstep. Just need to read all the fine print.

Yeah, we all know that but there are plenty of newbies out there who would unsuspectingly grab this because its only 30 bux, only to find the shipping is twice that much after the fact.

And I'd agree with the honest mistake theory if it weren't in 2 or 3 different places or in purposefully tiny text.

They also seem to have what is seemingly some Easter Eggs of sorts on their site that are really great prices. The two that I've stumbled upon with their current listing have been 200 piece sets of the RPT Nexgens and 200 piece sets of the Jackpot Casino Coin Centers. When I first saw them I thought it was a mistake and pounced on the RPT chips at 13¢ each, but since it's been up for over a month now, I suspect they just have these inviting little morsels every so often. Just gotta look and do the math.

Yeah I've seen them do that for a long time. A sharp eye will definitely find a deal on their site. Always check the clearance section too for the really great deals on supposedly B grade and discontinued items. Got some nice wooden 300 chip cases with clear tops recently for like 20 bucks a piece. Couldn't find a thing wrong with them either.

I figure that you guys are talking about E-bay ripoffs, you should take a look at these items. Hard to believe that anyone would spend money on them, but I guess Barnum was right.

Hey! Don't be dissin' my auctions!!

I love reading those silly treknology autions, there seem to be quite a few of them for time travel equipment. You'd think the buyers would be smart enough to buy them, reverse engineer them and then go back in time to before they bought them and get their money back!

Ya, it seems to be the thing on poker items to price low, and jack up the shipping ON EBAY.
