Welcome fellow ChipTalk members,
I'd like to make a quick comment about the importance of product reviews (primarily poker chip reviews)...
First off, Ten and many active ChipTalk.net members have done a great job of reviewing poker chips on this site, and I applaud their efforts. Many of our customers find out about our Sidepot chip lines thru reviews compiled on ChipTalk. It seems like everyday we get a customer on the phone who leads in with, "I'm _____ on ChipTalk...", or "I've read about your ____ line on ChipTalk" or something similar. I applaud your efforts, and the help you provide to the marketplace.
Honest product reviews like these are great for everyone involved. There is nothing more valuable to me when shopping for a new product, than to hear honest comments and assessments by previous customers. This is one of the great elements of the interactive web. Just as important, they encourage product producers like us to create better and better chips - build a great product and the market will reward you. This is one of the core principles we have designed our business around. We've succeeded at times, and no doubt failed at times. While we don't necessarily like to hear criticisms of our products, it's probably good for our business in the end (and the poker chip market as well, of course). And of course, the positive comments on products that we've put a lot of effort into are very rewarding - this business is our passion after all.
We want to hear both the good and the bad comments on our poker chip lines, and I would like to invite all ChipTalk members to make their own voice heard. If you've found a product from Sidepot Gaming that you are extremely happy with, or disappointed with, I encourage you to post a review. We've tried to make posting reviews of our products as easy as possible. Here are some links to post your own reviews to help the next Sidepot Gaming customer make an educated decision on their purchase:
