Has anyone used these chips?

I looked around on the forum but did not find anything. Sorry if this is a re-post. I am looking to get a new set of chips and only want to pay around $100-150 for a set of 500. I like the look and the weight of these...opinions???

"These are all-clay poker chips weighing in at 10.5g (the official weight of casino chips). "

This should set off an alarm in yur head - we all know the official weight of casino chips is 11.5g - not 10.5g.

..that casino chips were 10-10.5 grams. I've played in the casino a few times and their chips do not seem as heavy as the 11.5 grams that a friend owns. I'm new so forgive me if I am wrong.

Buck- Phil's pulling your leg.

There is no standard 'official' casino weight, but 11.5 (or higher) is a dead-giveaway for a metal-slugged plastic.

It's just a running joke around here...

If you get these, do a review for us. We all would love to know how "all-clay" those chips are for so cheap.
