| | | They're really nice. I like them a lot and would be interested in a set if I wasn't stuck on trying to put togther the bankroll (in the micros) to get my Aviation Clubs made... Heck, if I hit it big, count me in for a set!

| | | Cathy emailed back earlier in the week, the color of the $25 edgespot is dayglo orange. She is going to send me a sample with dayglo peach edgespots for comparison.
I just bought a set of the Paulson Christo's via ebay. Nice chips, but because of my most recent purchase I will be selling part or all of this set. I will list them in the member to member section this weekend. Send me a pm if interested. My cost was essentially $1 per chip, that's all I'll be asking (plus $5 to ship priority insured). I will sell them in 2 lots, first lot will have $25 chips: 150x$25, 250x$100, 125x$500, 40x$1,000 and 15x$5,000 (580 chips), 2nd lot will be the same without the $25's (430 chips). I really like these, but in the 3 months it took to make them I've bought 3 other chip sets. Something has to go. |

| I have been eyeing up those Christo's too and I saw you bidding on them. I knew that you had more money to bid than me so I let you have them.

| | | All my money is tied up in poker chips! The Christo's are nice chips though, feel is very similar to the Vineyards, but with traditional colors. I'll post pictures this weekend. If I end up selling half of this set that will offset some of the cost of those. |

| | | 20 fit nicely in a Paulson rack, I'm not at home, but I don't think 21 would fit as the rows of 20 were not that loose (at all). I haven't received the 100 chips I bought separately on Monday or Tuesday, but the 300 $1's from the set I bought are in decent shape. Now that I think about it, I had them in stacks of 20 on the table and I didn't notice any significant differences in chipstack heights among 1/5/25/100 - and I'm the kind of person who notices that kind of stuff. I sold my NJ clays because chipstacks were inconsistant heights and I noticed that right away.
If I can fit 21 in a row I'll let you know, but they seem to be in decent shape. |

| | | Those chips look GREAT. Those ASM are already starting to entice me and I haven't received my faux clays yet. |

| | I'm with you.  ops:
I just got my Pro Clays about 2 months ago, and now I find myself designing custom ASM's. Of course, designing and actually putting together the cash to buy are two very different things.  Quote: |

| | | Rounders chips
The question was asked "why no mold design on the chesterfield?" Because that is the way they wanted them made.
Why don't we sell rounders chips on our website? When we made the movie chips, we agreed not to reproduce the originals and we have not. We have used the bear and value if requested because other chip makers have copied it. It is our own design and not unique to the movie. The bear was to represent a Russian bear. I think it's an American brown bear I got out of clip art.
We would not use the Chesterfield name and logo on a chip. The Chesterfield Club was a made up name for the movie. The real club in New York was called the Mayfair Club I think? |
