Pharaoh Weight

So I've had several people see my chips now and even got to break them in on the road last weekend. Everyone loves them, not surprising, but I've now had 2 or 3 people ask me the strangest question. Are these 13 grams?

Where do they get this stuff? I just shake my head and gently tell them that no, they are like real casino chips and are closer to 10 g. All that 11.5 and 13 g nonsense is just that, nonsense. No matter I guess, just odd to me that more than one person has asked me that now.

By the way, I threw a couple on my analytical scale here at work. Most of them are just under 10 g, but the oranges clock in closer to 9.2 g. The dayglo really does take some weight out of them.

I am sorry you got taken like that. If your Paulson's are not 13 grams, or at least 11.5 gram, I would demand my money back. I mean, c'mon, just what is Paulson trying to get away with here?

Not good, not being official 11.5 g. Paulson have to bring their chips to standard.

I hope the American Beauties chips are the correct weight: anywhere from 110-120 seems just about right.

We can request some silicone inserts if not but that would drive up costs...

I don't like silicone inserts very much - throws off the feel - I mean sound of the chip. ops:
