::CLOSED:: **Official GroupBuy - (Samurai Palace - Custom Bluechip)

**Official GroupBuy - (Samurai Palace - Custom BlueChip)


Detailed image of the front and back of the chips is at the bottom of this page.
Total chips ordered by members as of 10:40pm EST 10/13/05: 25,380
The numbers above are manually updated and may not reflect your order if placed recently.

The Samurai Palace chips are the result of months of design work and have been directly influenced based on Chiptalk.net users votes and input. While much of the design is similar to the original mockups I made we all know its the details that count and it has been with your help that this design has developed into what I believe to be some pretty fantastic chips.

HoldemPokerChips.com has agreed to handle this group buy. As most of you know HoldemPokerChips.com has a great deal of experience with GB's as they have already facilitated the Egyptians, and Chipco Suits and the hugely successful Paulson Pharaoh’s group buys. With out question Holdempokerchips.com is a trusted retailer and will supply you with the highest level of service.

The chips:
Samurai Palace chips are going to be manufactured by The Bluechip Company. As many of you know Bluechip manufactures chips for some of the most prestigious casinos in the country. They are truly committed to the Samurai Chips and have gone to great lengths to satisfy our demands for quality and design.

The weight will be 9.4-9.9 grams though most chips are expected to average around 9.7. This means these will on average be one of if not the heaviest Bluechips on the market and a true "casino quality chip".

The mold is 100% original and has not been featured on any other chip. It is a timeless design that would compliment virtually any inlay.

The over all texture of the chip can not be absolutely predicted, however every detail will be looked at with the expectation to create a soft, creamy feel, with good grip and exceptional stackability.

The inlay will have a linen finish so as not to detract from the texture of the chips.

Ordering:

** DISREGARD THE ORDERING INFORMATION BELOW. All orders should now be placed with Holdempokerchips.com at the following link - http://www.holdempokerchips.com/proddetail.asp?prod=AYSET165

Your first step is to complete the "Promise to Pay" form to reserve your chip set. This lets the group get an assessment of how many chips we'll be buying as a group.

Shipping:
Shipping will be available to virtually everywhere. At the time of payment you will be given a choice of various shipping carriers and the applicable fees will be added to your purchase.

300 minimum total order

No minimums on denomination meaning you could, for example, order 1 black and 299 green if you chose.

Payments will be made directly to HoldemPokerChips.com via Paypal AFTER the groupbuy is complete.

** Please Use the "Promise to Pay" form now to reserve your chip set!

Group Price:
The chips will be available after the group sale is over and the price for the GroupBuy will be $.86 for each chip. After the group sale is over expect something around $1.25 ea.
**Individuals who purchase chip sets (300+) during the Group Buy, will have an extra 30 days after the Group Buy to purchase chips at the $.90 price!

Time Frame:
No dates are settled upon just yet. But estimates for the manufacturing of the mold it self is 4-6 weeks plus 4-6 weeks to manufacture the chips plus the time to deliver to HoldemPokerChips.com and then to you.

Tell your friends and family about the group buy. Tell your friends on other forums! Without breaking any rules, use the URL to this thread:

http://chiptalk.net/forum/showthread.php?t=9500

*Note: While this is a collaborative effort among many poker chip enthusiasts, I retain all rights for the designs and decisions. Polls are for gathering opinions and usually the results are followed, but I can change designs at any time. - Eli (Circlencircle)

Well, unfortunately I can't tell you -exactly- how long but, once we hit 10k chips, I think 2 months is a close guess if all goes well... Honestly, I don't expect to hit 10k for another week or two though.

Sorry, I read you post again and realized I didn’t really answer your question... The time to get in is going to be open all the way up until they are received by Acepokerchips.com from the manufacturer. Plus the GB price will be available to those who ordered during the GB for another 30 days after they go on sale for everyone else...

In short, you have a couple of months at the bare min.

Two months? That makes me feel better - I'll be able to get in on this with that sort of timeframe It's the next month or so I probably won't have much to spare on chips and cards.

Now, I just need to figure out what to get for 300 chips

And don't forget http://www.chiptalk.net/forum/cms_vi...cle.php?aid=47

All of those have lots of useful info. I've read them all, and made a few spreadsheets to play around with the numbers myself. Still, it's not the easiest to figure out what you want for only 300 chips. 400-500 is easier to work out.
