I'm trying to determine what interest there would be in a GB of the "The House" chips that I've been working on as a number of folks have approached me on this topic. Depending on the interest level, I'll make a decision in the near future. I'm looking to make this a small GB with at least 3k in chips but hopefully no more than 6k in chips. If there isn't enough interest, I'll just get the chips myself. If there is a lot of interest (> 6k chips), I'll cross that bridge when I get there. As for timeframes, I would see this order be submitted sometime by the end of the year or beginning of next year. I should note that I do consider myself "in charge" of the GB and the owner of the "The House" inlay. Also, I've been told by PC.com that for orders of over 2500, they will drop the price to 1.15/chip for the double spots and probably 10% for any other styles (solid & single spot). Once I get an idea of the number of chips and such, a firm price can be determined.
Here are the "final" mockups if you haven't already seen them before;
Here are some guidelines for the GB:
1. Chip Breakout - My interest for these is a cash set including $1, $5, $25, $100 and a non-denom to double for .25 or .50 chips. I would expect to add 3 additional chip styles which would most likely include a $500, $1000 and some other chip (.25, $5000 or an edgespotted ND). This would be decided by those in any GB.
2. Chip colors - I'm somewhat flexible on these with the following exceptions: a solid, grey ND as in the mockups above and the $1 chip will have either an Imp. Blue or Blue base color, preferably with a single spot. I'm willing to listen to discussions on the red/green/black chips edgespots combinations but these should be double spot chips. I should note that I like the colors in the mockup above (especially the black chip) but I'm flexible. The other 3 designs would be totally be up to the GB members.
3. Inlay - The inlay is done and is not really up for discussion. If there is a GB, I'm willing to listen to those that have already committed to buying some chips but don't be surprised if nothing changes in the inlay. The only thing that may change in the inlays are some of the colors but the layout is pretty much a done deal.
Please go ahead and vote. Just a reminder, I've not officially annouced a group yet but I simply trying to determine the interest level. If a GB goes forward, I will provide more details.
