| | | Possible Tiki denominations group buy?
This is just an interest-gauging post to see what would happen if I were to try to set up a group buy of some slightly different Tiki chips:
Let me know what you all think...

| | Well, once you fix the reversal of the 25¢ and $1, you'll be all set. 
Seriously, if you're really going to do another run, do you think thicker black outlines on the rolling edges of the white chip would lessen the bleeding of the red? |

| | | Personally, I don't care for Chipco chips, but I think these are an awesome design. Therefore, I would buy these if they are non-denominational. I already have a denomination paulson set along with Pharoah's on order. These would get more use from me if they were non-denominational. |

Changing the white and blue isn't an option, 'cause the shorter $1 denomination fits to the side of the tall white tiki where the 25¢ one wouldn't.
Additionally, I ain't even gonna go there. 
As far as the red bleed on the rolling edges, your point is a good one. I'm torn. A thicker black line, even a slightly thicker one, might help reduce the bleed substantially. In practice, though, I'm just not terribly bothered by it, and there are other issues with the diagonals that might be made worse by a thicker black line. (Some of the overlaps can get a little wonky and cause a slight "sawtooth" effect on the diagonals. It's only there if you look for it, but you could say the same thing for the bleed on most of the chips). I'd certainly consider it if people wanted to try it.  |

| | | Puz, I'd be all over this but I've already spent all the dough I can for my own customs. I can only own so many poker chips (I know that's blasphemy around here to say that). If you end up with samples, I'd gladly grab a set of those. Your chips are my favorite custom Chipcos (including my own).

| | I might get some samples, but doubtful on a full set. With Pharaoh's and ASM's on the way, I'm pretty set for now. Plus, I also fall on the opposite side of the blue chip debate.  forever!  never! |

| | | I'd be interested, but I'd prefer a non-denom. Got a ballpark on the price? |
