I wasn't sure if I should post these in the other thread Michael started so I started my own. First, knowing a tiny bit of the crap Michael has been going through at the WORST time of year, let me tell ya what he did.
First, he took the time to include things that were totally unexpected. Cut cards, Santa Card Protector, Chip Case, 2 packs of Del Negros and BEST of all he took the time to wrap it all up, pay for Saturday Shipping to be sure it came to my house on time with a huge note that said: Do Not Open Until Christmas! This, from Mr. self-proclaimed "Bahh Hum Bug". I think you have a bit more of the Holiday Spirit than you know buddy!
Thanks again Michael -- I've got a little something boxed and coming your way -- my way of returning what you've done for me this past year (wait, that would be empty my bank account) -- oh well, it's done with a smile!
***And from what I saw in the other thread, I'm on my way out the door to get some oil and spend my afternoon bringing out the real colors & style of these beauties!
Edit: Oh baby -- just oiled 450 chips -- UNREAL -- JM you were right about oiling BC. Wow!!
Edit#2: fixed pics -- put in 5,000
OK here are some oil pics -- unfortunately I had oiled ALL the 5K, 1K, & 500's so there isn't anything to compare to in a side-by-side shot, but I did have a rack of 100's not oiled --- best I can offer. They went from very nice but somewhat "chalky" colored to much deeper, richer looking. I'm not very good with lighting and cameras so these pics don't do justice to the difference. Here ya go:
I remember reading about people who oiled their chips back in my early days of CT and think, "You have got to be kidding me."
Let's see -- can you tell which rows have been oiled?
