13g "Casino" Composite chips from Trademark?

I realize these aren't the premium clay chips that most of you prefer, but I'm hoping there may be others out there like me who are on a more modest budget. Plus, these are great chips for what they are.

I've already been in touch with the wholesaler and can put together a group buy if there's an interest.

Depending on just how big the purchase is, 500 chips will range from $50 to $80. I think either end of that range is still a bargain, but I'm hoping to get it down to around $60.

These?

You can get a set for $90 + shipping from discountcasinogear. ~$110 w/ case.

$60 wouldnt be a bad price....

How many do you need to pull off the group buy?

Yes, those are the ones I was referring to. My picture wouldn't upload for some reason, thanks for posting that one.

If we order ten sets of 500, the price is $70 per set. That price includes a case, so it really is a decent price.

I'm not sure how many are needed to reach the $60 point, but I can find out. $50 is pretty much impossible to reach since we would need to order a full shipping container!

If you want to see them with labels check out mine in the member to memeber section. The 13g casinos are great if you want to label your chips, they have a recessed center that protects the labels from rubbing.

I might consider busting the set up if enough people want samples, mine have very little use (two nights of use with 4-5 people) some chips were never even used.

Thanks for the offer 99%Evil. So far the response isn't all that impressive, so I don't know if anyone will want samples. I've played with the chips and like them a lot, so I know what I'm getting.

It looks like the price will be $69.15 per set of 500, including a case.

The lower price points require VERY high volume purchases.

$64.84 per set for purchases totalling $10,000 and up (approx 153 sets!).

$49.95 per set for a full shipping container, and I didn't have the nerve to ask how many sets were in a container.

I guess if anything, this would be considered a mini group buy.

Anyone interested?

While it may be just a drop in the bucket for you guys that spend thousands on chips, getting a volume discount on a set like this is meaningful to those of us with limited resources.

Don't get me wrong, I see nothing wrong with spending more, I just can't at this time.

So, these 13g chips are a huge step up for me from my WalMart set and the 40% discount with a 10 set purchase is significant for me and I thought it might be for others as well.

Im looking for a set of these, is this group buy still open. I have a set of these and they are great chips, for their price. I'm very interested Tripod, hopefully you haven't ordered yet. They do take labels very nicely, here's mine....
