| | | Bounty Chip Group Buy?
 final design by Lynbark Designs
How about a group buy of this design on a Ceramic chip?
That's all, no other edits, nothing else, just bounty chips in increments of 10.
A rough estimate is $13-$15 per ten chips, depending on shipping method selected by you.
This price includes shipping from the manufacturer and PayPal fees associated with the group buy.
Please post how many you would order so that we can see if this is feasible.
Dwight87 has kindly agreed to coordinate the group buy!  Rough estimate count:
DEEJAY - 20
Dwight87 - 10
Lynbark Designs - 25
tripod22 - up to 50 as needed
boondocker96 - 15
Coop - 10
carstairs - 20
seymour - 10
Mok - 10
Majination - 10
Nugzy - 20
Droopy - 20
Tiggy - 20
Quads - 40
Twisted_One - 10
Chooch - 25
Cowtown - 50
taylodan - 10
Wooderson - 10
pankwindu - 20
Damageinc333 - 10
CaptLego - 20
JavaJunkie - 50
Pimpdawg54 - 10
shinydiamond - 10
Rough estimate: 505 chips and counting! | | Sponsored Links |  |

| | | That's a pretty steep price for a chip. Have you considered submitting the design to Nevada Jacks? No art fee, cheaper and faster delivery if I'm not mistaken. I'll be in for at least 10 at a lower price. |

| | | Just to clarify on the design credit... I simply picked up in the middle of the evolution of this one and added things per forum member requests...
I'm in for 10. |

| | That's a possibility, but here are some issues I see.
1) NJ has a minimum order of 500, compared to 300 for Chipco. **EDIT** My bad, I just double-checked and they both have 500 minimums.
2) NJ isn't much cheaper at all. The $1.20 I quoted included PayPal fees and shipping to me. Once you add those to NJ's per chip price of $.95 you're just about even. I think the base Chipco price was $.97 before adding the other expenses.
3) The consensus seems to be that Chipcos graphics are better, and I think that's worth 2 cents more per chip. Quote: |

| Double check on PayPal, they've started a microlimit fee schedule that reduces the fixed fee for a higher percentage. I don't have the info right in front of me, but I think it works out cheeper up to about $5.

PS I like the chip, just not sure I have a use for it right now. |

That's good to know. I'll check it out in more detail if this takes off.
P.S. It's not about whether or not you have a use for the chips, it's whether or not you WANT the chips. Quote: |

Edge spots/text?
How many do we need to sell for a lower price? |
