First set of chips - New Pharaohs

Well, my first set of chips, other than the dice... and I think I spoiled myself thanks to all of you, momos, here at Chiptalk.

I lost count of how many times I read "Buy them now or buy them later, but you will buy them." So I decided not to waste any more time.... I couldn't be happier (well only if I had more, of course). It is just enough for my small weekly cash game. I got them from Royal Poker Supply which did a great job processing them quickly and shipping them without any damage to a single chip. This first picture shows the tremendous color on them right out of the box. Excuse my homemade table using swimming pool noodles as a rail and headliner as the covering (surprising worked out nicely)...

I second your endorsement of RPS. And, congrats on your first Paulsons!

Great choice, adam. Pharaoh's were my first "serious" set as well. Still have them. Recently bought more. Be prepared.

Welcome!

Congrats, it's like that first hit of crack. All downhill from here!

It suffices to say I love all 2000 of my pharaohs - LOL... like abby I just added a few more from MSPattons liquidation sale.
