I got these clearanced at Spencers for $2.97 pr 100. Pretty basic 8g+ diamonds that I think are a world better than all the 11.5g slip 'n slides. They riffle well, sound better than the metal inserts, and actually have some grip.
The 11.5's have touble standing 10 high. This is a 300 chip stack. My Nexgens or Desert Sands are what we use for 10 or less, but I use these for 10+(ended up w/ over 2000, kept going back and droppin' $10 for 300)
Those are some sweet chips for the price. I love the "Lucky 7" imprint in the center, very unique, better looking than standard Super Diamonds. Spencer's Gifts, right? Home of black light art? Who would have thought?
Yep, Spencers. The black light and "other" stuff store. We were looking for Nightmare Before Christmas stuff for my daughter and I saw these on the clearance rack. Marked down to $3.99 and 30% off. So actually they were $2.79 pr 100. Not bad at all for 2.8 cents pr chip.
I don't think I could get my cheap 11.5 gram chips to stack more than 20 high so that is pretty impressive for the price. I like the Lucky 7 in the middle too.
But come on, who's gonna need to stack em that high in a tournament anyway!
True, but its a great test for stack-ability. Dice truly cannot stack more than 10 high or so, especially at a table that gets jarred. Dice even spin on each other because the center is thicker than the edges. Most home games I play in (elsewhere) are with Dice chips, and I notice that no one stacks in the standard 20's, but usually in stacks of five and sometimes 10 max.
I know you were jesting, but others need to know why these cheaper chips play better than the 11.5 style that is abundant in the home game market.
