If this e-tailer truly has them in stock then the FCN owes him a debt of gratitude. Anyone ordered?

I almost did, but then sent them an e-mail instead. I'll let you guys know if they send me a response (after I've ordered some first

).

I ordered some (with a note against the order asking them to not substitute). Will keep y'all posted on outcome.

Until someone hears otherwise from that vendor, it's probably safe to assume that THAT website is just out of date ...
(if they only had someone answering phones, we'd all know in a heartbeat)

Yeah, highly probable. There's plenty of out-of-date sites out there still purporting to stock them:

Should we get a sticky going that says these websites are just out of date? If I'm not mistaken, it's been established (repeatedly) that these vendors all dropship from trademark- they ship from the same warehouse.

Problem is that nobody can confirm this at this point.

Sorry, edited while you were replying.

FALSE ALARM!

Here's the response to the order I placed:

"Regarding the 10g Casino Dice poker chips, the only colors we currently have available are white and red. We made several attempts to contact the manufacturer to get an eta on the other colors. We were informed that they were selling out their current stock, and it might be months before we were able to obtain more. So in spite of these being very popular, we are going to discontinue them unless we can find a different manufacturer. We apologize for the inconvenience. We do have a large quantity of the reds and whites. If you would like these, just reply and let us know. If not, we can simply cancel your order. Again, sorry for the inconvenience."
