First, let me be clear that the chips provided by Steve are OUTSTANDING - this whole deal is MY FAULT.

Okay, by now everyone knows the saga of my Austin Skyline chips.

So I finally received my set this week, and much to my dismay, due to a design issue by yours truly, I'm finding myself only about 70% satisfied with my "dream set." I designed the edgespots as a "floating edge," to have some of the base color above and below the spots.

The prototypes that I received were printed full depth - not floating and looked perfect to me. I knew going in that there would be vertical variance, and didn't consider changing the design because I thought it was what I wanted.

I was wrong.

The floating edge doesn't work for my eye. They look fine, mind you - just not what my dream had in mind.

Now I'm on a quest to have my set redone, but I obviously can't just exchange these. Steve w/ BRPro has made me a very generous offer on replacing the set, but that means I need to sell these to finance it.

What does this mean to you? It means that if you've been eyeing the Skylines, you have the opportunity for a steal of a deal.

So, to all my chip friends out there - please help me in my endeavor to get what truly will be my dream set of ceramics!!

The breakdown is as follows:
Red 5 - 270 (5 were damaged in shipping)
Green 25 - 300
Black 100 - 300
Purple 500 - 175
Yellow 1000 - 100
Blue 5000 - 50
TOTAL Chips - 1195
COST: $520 shipped (U.S. only) - that's 43.5 cents per chip - you would pay $.62/chip to buy directly from BRPro BR Pro Poker - Skyline Ceramic Poker Chips

I will consider breaking up the set, but only as a "group buy." I have to sell them all.

Edges look nice! Do you have any pics that show the face of the chip? The first pic is too small.

Sure - Steve has some good pics of the faces on his site:

Wow that really does resemble Austin!

That's town lake and one very distinct building. Where's the Frost Tower?

The Frost Tower is the second one from the left. The perspective of the picture that I based the chips off of makes it appear a little shorter.

Ahhh I was expecting it to be the tallest

Good luck on your sale.

I would LOVE to get the 25's and up. Don't really need the 5's.

They would have to live in Houston for a couple years, but they would make their way home eventually.
