Sometimes chips come packed well but I’ve never seen the quadfecta, efficient, safe, beautiful, and leaves me with a refill of repacking supplies...a true artist. THANK YOU @JeepologyOffroad

While I love these chips (got 2 racks myself), I really love how @ReallyGoodUsername used blue painters tape as opposed to clear packing tape to seal the warneke boxes. Not sure about everyone else but I reuse those all the time. The blue tape really keeps the box nice and clean for reuse purposes. It may just be my OCD talking but it tilts me every time I receive chips and the boxes are covered in layers and layers of clear packing tape. Is it just me?

I, too, am an avid user of blue painters tape when shipping warneke boxes.

Boxes are not meant to be perfect. Normally any I received are well used and covered in crap. I'd just rather them be sealed and ship chips safe then anything else.

And I'm too cheap to buy special box tape when I use a third of a roll per shipment sealing up the box.

While we’re updating box preference - anyone that sends me chips please only use the old school brown and blue boxes. The ones that still smell like old cigar smoke. Thx.

Lol, there is something charming about a warneke box with too much tape and 4 or 5 different struck through labelings of what was inside though .

When I send you shit I don't bother sealing the box at all. Makes for a good surprise

 

[72o]

Yeah I agree about ruining the boxes with a shit-ton of tape. When shipping, I always wrap the warnake boxes in cling wrap first and then tightly with a bunch of packing tape.

Same, always try to hold onto those unless I’m shipping out something extra special.

I am to please. Thanks for noticing!

If you get the thin rolls it can be cheaper than some masking tape rolls. Even if not splurge s little. Life’s too short Josh

Reminds me of how I just pile on each new car registration sticker on the license plate.

Or just skip the boxes all together and throw the chips in a garbage bag and just stick in a big box.

Any tape on a box from me, came that way from another member. I use this on all my out going boxes.

Forgot I originally came here to post some pr0n. Seen these Venetian $2s posted many times. And many of those times I had "Dibs!" typed up with my mouse arrow hovering above "Post reply" button, but my brain talked me out of it. Well...this time my finger was faster, and I am thankful that it was. These are soooo sweet. Thanks @horseshoez !

Something must be off with me. I play with these $2s pretty much every summer in their $8/16 mixed games, and never once thought to myself, "damn, I gotta bring some of these home!" I guess the spots just don't work for me for some reason. I'm glad they work for others though. It is a good green.

They weren’t, unfortunately. But they were Sunfly, so a little bit better than expensive Paulson. But I can’t believe anyone would think this is ok. This was from earlier in the year, I actually posted about it on this thread earlier.

Starting to believe you are not actually kidding? Lol. I just received some of these as well. Got about 900 chips, 300 of which were sitting in three of those boxes. I literally had to clean all the 900 chips, even those in newer warnake boxes, just for being in the same shipment. Please everyone, just burn or recycle all of those old boxes asap.
