hi to all,

long story short, my custom ASM's were auctioned off after a misunderstanding with authorities

.They were custom ASM's tournament chips that read,"Mo's Rounders Club". i used the search forum and saw they were listed on the auction area of this site a couple times back around June of 07. if anyone here bought them or knows anything about them please help me out..i'm looking to buy them back immediately

Who was the high bidder? Post the name and someone may know them.

So reading between the lines, these were sold at a police auction after being seized for some nefarious activity? If you ordered them originally from ASM can't you reorder from them if the current owners doesn't want to part with them?

JM the problem is Ebay clears all auctions after 90 days, so i only have an item number.

The problem wasnt the after hour poker games , the problem was some of the members involved in the game...the reason i just dont want to order another set, is because these particular chips hold a certain value to me

clearly these chips are decoys. i'm thinking compressed cocaine dyed and shaped to look like clay chips for drug smuggling.

nice try, but i'm onto you sir! you'll get no help from me.

honestly, i have no knowledge of your chips sorry.

Does anybody know if the internet wayback machine can get you into an old ebay auction? I've never tried, but I did use it to find the "Bonuswh0res dot com" review of Absolute Poker before they blacklisted them. Useful thing that.

No offense meant, but something doesn't seem right.

If you placed the original order with ASM, you could have the chips built again. Granted if you find who has them, you may be able to get them back cheaper than ordering replacements new.

What I also find strange are the edge spot combinations for someone posting to chiptalk for the 1st time, 614 on the 500 and 1000.

Ok, I'll bite...what difference does it make that he has those combinations? Are they a "chiptalk special" of some sort? I dont get it...sorry.

An avid reader and a non-poster by the looks of things.

Yes - the 614 was a chiptalk thing that wasn't on pokerchips.com. So unless someone was here they probably wouldn't know to ask about that combination when ordering.

I didn't notice the join date for the poster, just the 2 posts. So he probably was a lurker and gleaned the info on availability from here.

Like I said, it just didn't feel right, but now seeing a join date of Feb 2006, it makes it more believable.

I honestly hope he gets his chips back.
