09-18-07 UPDATE! ORDER IS HERE! Packaging the chips for re-shipment! 09-07-2007 11AM PST THIS GB IS CLOSED! I'm putting the total number of chips together and will be submitting the artwork and payment to Joe. I'll report back to this thread with an update on ETA for printing, delivery, etc.
We have decided on a brilliant idea for people who talk too much at the table and slow the game down. It's called the STFU chip. This is derived from a Scott Keen'ers session in AC a while back. The dealer threw a lamer at the player that said "STFU". The table roared in laughter.
So, taking that the next step, we decided to do a very simple (yet effective) design and have some fun with it. Buy the chips, sell the chips, use the chips in many different ways in your home game.
I have not gotten an exact headcount / quantity count on it yet, but the info is below:

This is a lamer type chip to be used in the times either by yourself as a player, or a dealer for a bit of humor in your game. The list of ways to use / sell, give, etc is endless.
The chips will be printed on a 10g Ceramic blank by SunFly. Joe at Palm Imports will be the printer. I will coordinate the work with Joe and report back to this thread the details, exact costs, breakdown, shipping, etc.
From prior experience, a smaller batch of custom chips should run *about* $1.25 each, once we get shipping and what not added in there. Use that as a guideline. The more people involved, that price comes down, slightly. Price is based on the cost of chip from Palm, shipping to me, then an envelope, and a stamp to send it you.
If you are interested, please reply stating so, and I'll add you to the "commitment list" and update the quantities.

I will coordinate paypal / shipping info later. So this isn't a pain for those interested, **PAYPAL ONLY**. Shipping to you will be via USPS. Shipping will be the cost of a stamp and a padded envelope.
