They match the Colorado ones, but no inlays. Probably props for the "big stack" shots. They are real Blue Chips, the closeups confirm.

As expected, some of the Tilt chips are now being re-sold on eBay (or at least that's what it looks like to me):

Well its one thing to spend $2 on chips with labels, but $2 on no lables and a $499 buy it now, hmmmm I don't think so. Somehow I think without labels it makes them worth less in my opinion than the labeled chips. What do you think Ten? I mean couldn't you order these on a group buy with the same edge spots for less?

This poker chip reselling market is starting to get way out of hand. . .kind of like Holland's tulipmania. . .

So say if someone were to buy these, do you think that they should have the Colorado labels put on or just left blank? This all brings me back to getting some made by someone. I know you buy them for the collecting aspect, that's why I grabbed some. But as I'm trying to put together a set of Colorado's that people want insane money for and all I want is a chip to use, I'd love to have some made. I like the graphic and colors of the Colorado chip plain and simple. I like the diamond one's as well, but the way they person on ebay is selling them the chip count is all messed up. I'm sure Blue Chip has all the graphics etc to make the chips. I don't think there would be any infringement here since there is not going to be another season of the show, plus I am not sure how to go about or how many chips would be needed to make a buy. I'm sure however there would be enough people that wanted these to get something going. Not to mention it would be way more affordable. Just rambling, but would like to know what others think.

I think they're a good deal not even considering they were on Tilt. The blanks are, what, 99c? Labels for a penny more or something? Unless you get REALLY good labels. The recess is perfect for labels.

I would get Colorado labels made for them. Or buy the Diamond Tilt Blue chips. I think the setup they switched to is good:

$5.00 > 15 CHIPS

$25.00 > 25 CHIPS

$100.00 > 25 CHIPS

$500.00 > 25 CHIPS

$1,000.00 > 10 CHIPS


That's better than the old setup they were selling: 20-20-20-20-20

I didn't realize they had lowered the opening bid from $199 to $99. I like the denom split ok, but would rather have more of the $5 chips and less $1k. 99c is a good price, but 75c would be better.

I just noticed they only lowered the price on 2 of the auctions, maybe the others will follow.
