I'm struggling with which $1 to select, which may influence the $5 I select.

For the $1 I don't like the brown edge sports, so primaries are out. So the secondaries I like edge spots on "A" better than "B", but I'm unsure about the base colour on "A".

If you select $1 "A" I'm thinking I would go with secondary $5 or $1 "B" I would go with Primary (new). Once again with $5 I like the edge spots on the secondary but like the base colour on the primary.

Oh the decisions...lol

yeah I like 1A better, but it would be easier to add primaries later if I want to ad on
 
Many great looking chips in the line-up! I'm sure all of us have our own distinct opinion, but for me, the prettiest stand alone chip of the bunch, nothing else considered, is the Secondary $500. And I'm usually not the biggest fan of the 4V418 pattern, mind you.

Yeah. I want to have that chip's babies.
 
Gets harder with each passing hour to convince myself I don't need these. I hope you guys are faster than I am...
 
After some thought, I've decided to sit this sale out, since I won't be able to do anything with the chips until I murder them -- and the only chips I really want are the secondary $5Ks and the $25ks.

That said, for those of you still pondering the sale, I've updated the spreadsheet calculator and it does a couple of nifty automated things, and you can download it here. Here are a couple of screenshots.

Thank you. Love a good spreadsheet.
 
I've missed photos of the used primary chips in stacks, where are they?
 
How will we know if chips are out of stock? Does the link Automatically close?
 
Shot in the dark but if anyone has room for 10 $5ks in their order please PM me and we can work something nice out.

Link will be active. When you got to check out you'll get a specific message of which chips are out. If all the chips in your cart are out, you'll get a generic message.
 
Hmm, which lineup to choose? I like 5, 8 and 14.

I think it is No 13 for me, assuming it is a tournament set in which the $500 will get play time. No 14 is probably my second choice, so all Secs.

That does not mean those are the chips I like the best compared to their counterpart. I just think that's the line-up that would play better to my eyes.

If it is a Cash set, probably all Prims with Tertiary $1s.
 
@Windwalker Cool spreadsheet, I did a crude version for myself in the early stages.
FYI I think you have a bug in the chip totals, if you add 5K chips the total does not change at least on the version I downloaded.
 
Devils advocate here...

Since, from what I've read, none of you actually "use" your chips... hows the durability difference relevant?

and go.
Perhaps my chips aren't used as intended in a casino setting, maybe being collected more than used, but they have been used in my home games.

I found a single $500 Jack primary with a flea bite after just one game. They were respectfully used and not thrown around, and still a flea bite.

In comparison, I also have used (4x) my AS stamps set. THC. And not a single flea bite to mention. I even ran a 2 table event and lost sight of my babies for a couple hours and NO flea bites.

Definitely a durability advantage with the THC mold.

Hey Nav,

When I said "Devils advocate here..." I meant that as "I'm giving you the business", or "just joking around here" and I hope your reference (bolded above) to hyper-vigilance of your chips was also made in jest?

My view is that if you spent too much to use it, then you probably shouldn't have bought it in the first place. My uncle, now deceased, bought a Ferrari and (almost) never took it out of the garage; that is a complete and utter waste of a beautiful machine. Same thing goes with chips, using them is enjoying them.

P.S. Chips function perfectly well with flea bites, you haven't changed their nature or purpose, just their condition. :tup:

Oh absolutely bud!!!

Just messing around! Loved your post. It made me chuckle! I am guilty of buying chips that still haven't been used! Hahahaha

Believe me, I am only jesting in return!

Very sorry to read about your uncle man! I better get on with using my chips...
 
Guys - I only want fracs not the high denoms. I want the secondary dolphin/gray fracs.
If you would like to work something out please PM me.
