Not my auction, but here's an opportunity to get some Starburst chips at a reasonable price. Just under 4000 left, 3000+ blue, 400 orange, 100 pink.

Get 'em while you can.

edit: still available on 6/27 (relisted) with 3200 Blue, 200 Orange. He also has a couple sets of 20 (blue), if you're just looking for a few.

edit: 6/30 Orange is sold out.

Yeah, I saw this auction earlier. The only problem is that you have to buy in lots of 100. If the seller would mix/match, I'd probably grab a set of 100, but I can't really afford to get 100 of each of the colors he's offering.

I would've bought the 2 pink racks last night if I hadn't just ordered 3 racks of plain lavender from TR King. I guess it saved me a few bucks though.

I really like these chips. Back when Paulson stopped selling to the public ( late 2003). I tried to get a set but they were all sold out. This is the first auction I have seen where you can buy these chips in lots of more than 20. I think these would be a second choice for me other than the Pharaohs I have on order. Price isn't too bad either.

You'd have to fold the label over a bit. And I'm not sure if it recessed enough for a label. I have some of those Paulsons at home, I can check them with some label stock when I get home. Amazing ... I thought they were a but overpriced at $35.00/100 when I bought them. It's not as if these were edge spot chips with inlays they're plain unspotted chips, just can't see how anyone could justify a buck a chip for them. Oh well, maybe P.T. was right ...

Ordering the plaiin chips from TR King saved you about a half a buck a chip! And you'd pay the same thing at ASM. Those TH&C chips were probably made by Burt Co. anyway (now Chipco and ASM), they were rumored to have produced plain TH&C chips for Paul-Son well into the late 90's. Can't see paying twice as much just because they came from Paul-Son. After all Paul-Son came from TR King (both literally, financially, and figuratively), so shouldn't the TR Kings be worth more

I've seen the Red and Green starburst chips sell for over $200 per 100. The blue ones close to that (two lots of 50 that went for $90+each). Interestinly the edge-spotted starburst chips don't sell for much more.

I bought 300 to add to the set that I got 2 years ago at $43 per 100. At that time the blue chips were already sold-out.

Personally I've sold a few racks of starburst chips and they usually sell for around $130, although I've not sold any of the standard colors (mine were petunia, fuscia, and blurple).

I think the price will only go up too, in that there is a finite supply....

this is one of my favorite chipsets that i have seen cancelled w/ the paulson starburst hotstamp:




my computer crashed just as i was about to make a last-minute bid on these. they sold for ~60¢/chip, iirc.
