For Sale Dunes Paulson Cash Set - The Holy Grail (1 Viewer)

I need to sell all of the chips here - I will ship to 2 people (US) max and all of the chips need to be paid for. If the two US-based people I ship to need to resell/redistribute the chips, so be it.

Payment must be via PayPal and includes USPS flat rate shipping to the US and PayPal fees.

100 Dunes $1s (circulated...it is impossible to find a rack of non-circulated Dunes Paulson $1s FWIW)
500 Dunes $5s
240 Dunes $20s (43mm Baccarat)
60 Dunes $100s (43 mm Baccarat)

I will throw in 1 50mm Dunes dealer button and 3 Dunes Paulson $500 43mm uncirculated chips as well

Retail pricing is $5 for the $5 chips, $10 for the $20 chips, and $12 for the $100 chips. It is impossible to find the $1 chips in anything more than single chip quantities on EBay at ~$18-20 per chip.....there might be 4 of us in the world with a full rack of Dunes Paulson $1s and the other 3 guys aren't selling.

At retail prices, this set is worth more than $7500 (and this is via valuing the $1s at a conservative $20 per chip).

Pricing below:

Dunes $1s: $1900 (1 rack available)
Dunes $5s: $340 (5 racks available)
Dunes $20s: $8 per chip (240 chips available)
Dunes $100s: $9 per chip (60 chips available)

Total set: $5900 (if sold to 1 person)

(Preference for the $1s will be given to the individual that spends the most on the set...I reserve the right to attempt to match buyers to ensure the entire set sells, but all communication will be via this thread).

I can probably go for a rack of $5s if it helps the split. If I miss out, thats okay too.

I think we've got a buyer for the whole set. Really happy it's going to someone that will appreciate 'em. I'll update here if anything changes - thanks for the interest everyone.

Lucky buyer! I was literally just looking at what I could sell off

$5900 is 50% more than what I pay for my 280ZX. I'd have to sell my car and take out a loan to buy this set.

I just hope/am glad it went to someone who will put this motherfucker into play like @bergs did. Takes serious chipping/playing dedication to put a set like this together and let any mook off the street play with it.

 

[Mr Tree]

Wowowowow. Didn't expect to see this one sell. That's a flagship set!

Anything I own will get play including my Dunes.

@inca911 are you on this shizz? I hope so.

I have fond memories of lighting stacks and racks of these on fire all night long in my worst (by 3x) session loss ever. I'm pretty sure those neon green $20s and $5 spots are actually radioactive - possibly made out of Kryptonite. All meetup hosts should stay away.

(OK, so they are the best set you can buy, by any measure, hands down. That doesn't mean I won't go into convulsions if I walk in and see them on the table...)

sounds like the list price was a bargain, if they really have this effect on Ben.

I heard the S@P participants went in on a group buy

I am willing to fall on the sword for keeping these beauties and pulling them out at S@P every year.

I'm debating a Dunes Tourney set, but not a Dunes Cash set. The Vineyards are my cash game go-to chips, lots of denominations = lots of options!

 

[ovo]

Is there enough recess depth on the $20 and $100 chips to relabel them? If not, how easily do you think the inlays could be removed?











Just kidding! GLWS (y) :thumbsup:

LOL. For what it's worth, I made that post because I saw that you commented right before and I knew you'd "appreciate" it.

A Dunes Tournament set 5/25/100/500 can be had for a reasonable amount from Spinetti's. Once you go above the 500, it's gonna hurt.

 

[bergs]

You'd have to go baccarat for the 1k and 5k chips. They have a handful of 1k 39mm chips but it's $65 or 70 per chip.

Incredible fckn set. HOF Mount Rushmore worthy!

I wish i would of seen it earlier but happy plans for a home theater are still intact.
Yesterday it would of been bye bye Atmos, hello doghouse.

Great job putting if together bergs.

 

[ssanel54]

Id like to mention that if I had been a little quicker on the draw yesterday the following may have happened:

@slisk250 would have had a rack of $20s

@JFCJ would have had a rack of Tropicana custom quarters

@liftapint or @H|Q would have had some more Trop $1s

and a few more sets may be listed in the classifieds

You can thank Berg for listing this as a simple WTS.... Grab your pitchforks and meet me in Westford

yeah, that's how it started for me. Keep rationalizing

Only a few more barrels of 500s and I'm there. I'll leave the 1000s and 5000s for the real chipping whales.

 

[CHP TD]

Beautiful!!!!

 

[ovo]

prop bet?

You'll never guess it. Even the Northeasr crew that is closer to me and this set can't figure it out.
