Exclamation Desert Palms differents?

Hopefully someone can give me a good answer here.

I've finally decided to buy a set of 500-600 desert palms chips and have been running around the net to find a retailer that's good and who can offer shipping to Sweden. That was pretty easy but what I found when I did alittle more detailed reacerch was differencials between different suppliers.
I found some that was more like the Dunes (not smoth and stackable) and some that was smoother and seemed to be made of a softer kind of mold.
Please help me to make my decision, I wan't to buy em as soon as possible .

Re: Desert Palms differents?

thank you!

I've looked at that thread already, and also bought stuff from chiproom.com before (new pharaous). That Desert sands you can find there are the one thats seems to have a smooth surface and made of a softer kind of mold. the different ones can be found here...

There are two versions & thechiproom sell both. If you go to their website (thechiproom.com) you can buy the ones you have seen on pkerstores.com.au. They are slightly cheaper but the consensus here is that they are vastly inferior.
I think everyone here will tell you to buy the china clay ones.

Re: Desert Palms differents?

I bought the chiproom's china clays version of Desert Palms for a buddy's home game and we love 'em. If you're happy with your new Pharoah's, seems like that's a good decision!

Re: Desert Palms differents?

Finally I ordered the compression molded ones and I think I will be satisfied with em because of the looks. the feeling of the china clays is better and I know that but I will have more opportunities to buy chips , Thx for the replies guys!
