ok ok, I know you all have heard this before. I just found the link to this site, tonight. I am looking to purchase about 500 chips, can spend about $50-$75, without wife divorcing me.

Any suggestions ?

For that price range the faux clay chips are the ones I would pick.

Check out Discount Casino Gear: http://www.discountcasinogear.com/store/allchips.html

They have a pretty good selection of chips, some of which are in your price range and some which are not.

I have placed several orders with them and have always been satisfied.

Or, do like I did--ask wifey that you want a really nice birthday present/Father's Day present from her this year. . . hmmm, Paulsons sure look good, honey, and these geeks all give them the thumbs-up. . . hey, check out the incredible bargain you can get on these Pharaoh's, sweetie. . .

Those two are lovely sets, might be just a bit beyond the price range he quoted for a set of 500.

For the price range you are looking at, i would go with the 10g Soprano chips that are reviewed here.. http://chiptalk.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1624

You can get them for $.09 a chip here https://www.discountcasinogear.com/s...ory24-120.html.

They also let you buy samples so, pick up a few (however, shipping will start cutting into your budget at that point).

For the price range that you have the only chip you need to know about is the Faux Clay chips there quality to price ratio is unmatched about 6-9 cents a chip get as many as you can my friend...

i'd also say go for the faux clays. 5stardeal has them for 6¢/chip, so only $30 for 500 chips. Throw in a 500-chip case, a nice set of cards, and shipping, and you are still within your price range...
