I think you also just set a new Chiptalk record for replying to an old thread. The site hasn't been around for long so replying to a message that's one day short of 6 months is pretty impressive!

[Strange]

The trouble with the junkie analogy is that when a junkie gets a fix, they are OK for a while, until the fix starts to wear off....

I don't ever remember a time when I didn't want to order more chips, including the 5 seconds after opening the ones that had just arrived!

In fact, hasn't everyone here at one time or another had chips still on order when they starting thinking about the next set that they 'must have'?

I bought the Pharaohs in the belief that I wouldn't ever want another chip set. How stupid was I?

[DEEJAY]

Junkie does sound better than *****,and yes even though I bought the pharoahs, i find i still get that urge for new chips or designs, but i managed to hold off on the beauties, and that was a tough one for sure, but in place of that i find all sorts of accessories to fill up my house with, like the new bounty chip we have going on in the group buy section. Also can't wait for the arrival of the copag WSOP cards to come out sometime soon? I hope--lol

.....and I just sent my buddy $60 to pick me up 6 sets of 10 chips from various casinos in Reno when he goes next week. Oh that and I have on order some Samurai Palace....along with the 800+ Pharaohs I currently have.

I am headed in the right direction....

Lol, i noticed that this had like 600 views, but hadn't seen this thread before so i figured it had to be an old one, but wouldn't thought it was this old.

Once you get a hold of the 43MM chips, it is almost impossible to part with them. You know that you can never replace them. Once you sell them they are gone forever. All you can get are 39mm chips for the home market. I have seen these chips go for quite a bit on eBay over the years. I was lucky I found them well before the poker boom.

Man, do you have some "jack" right there. Wow, very nice. How did you aquire such a collection of the Crystal Park's?

Holy sh*t. You could make a boatload of money off of those, if you played your cards right and sold them off slow enough. Really, with the prices those Crystal Parks are fetching, thats a good sum of money right there.
