Chips: 59 | | | Custom Chips....Having a breakdown..HELP!!! I trust your opinions, plus I'm at my witsend. I've been working on this set for nearly a year (I have a problem, I'm anal) and I still can't get it done. It's what happens when your strapped for cash. Anyways, I'm thumbing my ASM samples and even though the Nexgen Bee's are nice and would be suitable, I really, really, really want horseheads. They'll go so much nicer with my custom theme. Problem is, I can't cough up a buck a piece for the damn things customized, plus extra for color printing and at this point, waiting isn't feasable. So, I'm thinking of going the label route (personalpokerchips.com). I know there has been postings before about this, but, one more time, what are your opinions about labeling ASM's. Has anyone done it and are you really happy? |

Chips: 22 | | | Re: Custom Chips....Having a breakdown..HELP!!! Pull yourself together man! Suitable won’t meet your needs. Adequate is for someone else.
ASM’s are a great value for clay (although I fell in love with ceramics when they started showing up in casinos years ago, early 1990’s ?). Sorry, I don’t want to make you schizzo over this. You know what you want, so get exactly that and you won’t regret it.
GET SAMPLES

Chips: 1,142 | | | Re: Custom Chips....Having a breakdown..HELP!!! Honestly man! if you have to borrow money and pay the juice, do it. There is no sense in you buying high quality clays and labeling them. Asms are meant for customs. If u purchase blanks and one day u can afford to get a custom set (maybe after a fluke or skilled tournament win) you will find these babies to be garbage. You will realise that you wasted all this money when u could have sufficiently used that fund to add on to your new custom order. Don't do it, get them custom made, even if it means waiting, borrowing, or begging. |

Has to be done.
There are so many ways to justify it.
Mine is "Honey I know they are a $1.00 each U.S., but they can be passed down to kids and grandkids they will be a family hierloom."  |

Better yet, just tell her they cost 25cents each, buy a really cheap fake neglace from China Town, and tell her u (with the supposed extra money) bought this for her. Both of u will be happy campers |

Chips: 1,142 | | | Re: Custom Chips....Having a breakdown..HELP!!! Also, u can order as low as 300, i believe. It may not be much, but still playable. The important thing is, in the long run, u can add on, as oppose to buying blanks with labels and not being able to have that connection.
Also, if u r a returning customer, PC sometimes will give u a deal depending on your order size. | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | | | Display Modes | Linear Mode |
