[ACE'S FULL]

I am intrested in getting some of the BCC T-Mold solids for a micro-cash set. Now the questions I have are...

• Labels or Hotstamps?? (Can these be hotstamped)
• If Lables who should make them??
• What Colors??
• What is the impressions of these?? (Pro's/Con's)
• Denom's I am looking for are ($0.05, $0.10, $0.25 & $1)

Using picture from www.holdempokerchips.com (Hope this is ok??) If this isnt ok I will take down...

Thanks for all your thoughts and input!!

great colors but no recesseed centers so labels may be out of the question.

CRAP!! Hotstamping then??

I ordered 300 hot pink blanks from HPC on Thursday. I'll give you my impressions once they get here. I was planning on labelling them and Hog Wild has said in this thread that thin vinyl labels will work.

yes you can label them with HW's thin vinyl lables, but they will rub against each other.

have you noticed any effects from the labels rubbing together?

The chips are very nice. The mold is nice, and they seem to have a good stackability compared to other Blue Chips. They are quite heavy, about 9.5 grammes.

As far as I know, HPC doesn't offer hotstamping on these, so you would have to have them hotstamped somewhere else. That may make their price uncompetitive.

The recessed area is very shallow and would not be perfect for labelling, although a very thin label could be possible.

You could also consider hotstamped chips on the flame mold directly from BCC.

Well I only put them on long enough to see if they'd rub or not. I don't actually have a labelled set.

I have 100 purple T-Mold blanks I use as all purpose fillers for other sets as needed (not often as it turns out, but I do use them as $500's for my BC High Rollers as they are sold out with no restock that I know of).

Anyway, they are very nice overall. The look and feel is fantastic and they stack and sound just as nice as anything else out there. I have not tried to label, but they do not have a recess, as has been stated, so you would have to go with very thin labels.

These seem to be more "chalky" than other chips I have purchased and, out of four different lines of clay chips, these are the only ones I have bothered to oil and the difference was very positive.

All in all I don't think you will find a better deal out there on a real clay chip regardless of manufacturer. I was/am planning to buy a full playing set, but now that the Chip Room is adding a nickel hot stamp to the Desert Palm line I am going to add on to that set first. I will probably buy at least 400-500 more of these by the end of the year.

Hope my rambling helps.

Not sure, but I think I remember seeing BCC post on here awhile back that they can 'shave down' the center of chips and label them...I think
