Been a slow week for the mail Pr0n, but a few fun things to play with came... two complete Paulson color sample sets, a CPC edgespot sample set and a full CPC color sample set.

Blaze Orange, Mexican Rose, Lime Green, Canary Yellow and Horizon Blue are beautiful!

I am so hoping with not one but two Paulson sample sets indicates that you are doing a NAGB so more brand new THCs can be brought into existence and released to the wilds of PCF!
 
I can't believe I was the first to laugh at that photo. I'm only laughing because it's incredible, I can't believe that many glowing Jacks somehow got back together after the sale.

Not for nothing, but that set probably cost more than what Jim paid to take down the whole casino. You may be better off moving forward just buying out casinos and selling your leftovers here. May not be worth your time, but you definitely seem apt for it. Just my .02.

That takes a lot of licensing work to do, which I'm sure he's more than capable of doing, just not sure if the hassle is worth it. Unless it's for Vegas casinos, in which case have been unobtainable for the most part, and that would be awesome to access.

The man's done a deep dive, and doesn't seem one to be superficially involved nor remain uneducated regarding his hobbies. Lol if anyone thinks the thought didn't already cross his mind, I'm guessing they'd be wrong.

Selling them here may be a waste of time, but getting the chips no. He wouldn't have to scrap them together, he could take everything he wanted for a set at his house and each buddy who wanted one, and then just sell of the remaining heap in one go on here or eBay and still be in the black. No fuss no muss.
 
Buying out a casino's worth of mint chips doesn't come up that often.
Say it again, because people apparently forget.
Who forgets? Wedge you must hate the Olympics, triple plays, leap years, Clippers championships, and appointing new Justices.

"Hey, there's an opportunity for you to get the breakdown for an item you collect that you almost couldn't get in any other manner, and oh you'll make more than the average household makes in a year. But it's not super often."

"It doesn't happen often? I'm out."

But back to the chips, amazing he was able to bring all those back together! So bright!

Since this is a thread I started to document my chipping journey, I thought I should also write a bit about what I've been learning about surrounding subjects, like storage.

I’ve been struggling with storage / transport of my main game chips, the 43MM Jacks, and the only 43MM carriers I was able to find were the few offered by Gene at @ABC Gifts and Awards a few weeks ago.

The next option was a normal carrier from @Apache or BR Poker with Matsui racks, but those racks are so delicate, a small amount of jiggling in the car will throw them off / have them break. Not great for transport. Fantastic for static storage, though.

So, I reached out to one of our manufacturers in China, and had this custom carrier made. Here’s an initial prototype, with a honeycomb interlocking rack system. I had them use a denser polymer for the racks to create more substance than the Matsuis, and they're sized to fit the 43MMs, but given the top cover, should be able to store 39MMs as well. I will have a couple of test carriers in a few days, will let you know how it turned out and post pictures!

Here is a picture of the prototype our Chinese manufacturer took and sent me.
