It is with great sadness that I list this set for sale - this was my first really REALLY good set and I have a lot of memories with it. But, I have a custom order coming up and these rarely get used any more and need a good home.
These chips were produced for a GB on Chiptalk in late 2010. It was a very limited production as many were frustrated with BCC's QC at the time, and saw any order as a huge gamble. Well, the chips came out great, with some of the best colors ever used (you can never REALLY appreciate the TRK Fire $5s until you see them in person!) There is only one other (much smaller) set of these in North America (owned by a prominent PCFer whose name I will not divulge publicly unless he wishes,) and two in Europe (owned by chippers who haven't been heard from in years.) So, about as close to unique as you can get for a GB set. I bought these second-hand in 2012 and couldn't have been happier with the purchase.
Here is what I have from the original GB:
203x $0.25 (gray/black/blood red)
344x $1 (horizon blue/dark blue/canary yellow)
323x $5 (TRK fire/charcoal/white)
70x $20 (laker purple/lavender/TRK(?) yellow)
I have also added 40x custom-labeled $100 chips on MGK blanks (bone white/light blue/mauve/lavender) with custom artwork by J5 based on the original GB artwork (which he also produced.) Labels were created by Gear Labels on ultra-thin 2-mil vinyl; these labels are simply AMAZING. There is NO difference to the feel of an inlaid chip, and unless you look VERY closely you cannot even tell they are labels and not inlays.
A Suicide King dealer button is also included with the set.
These chips are not "mint" - they have been used in approximately 30 home games (~5 hour sessions) and are nicely broken in (but still in very, very good condition with sharp edges, no nicks, dirt, or other damage.) They have been oiled on 3 separate occasions.
Asking price for all 980 chips plus DB is $1,895 plus any applicable shipping, insurance and Paypal fees at actual cost. Non-USA buyers are welcome under the following conditions:
-You MUST pay via Paypal Friends & Family
-Set will be shipped in one USPS large flat-rate box, at actual cost
-YOU accept all responsibility for the shipment once it leaves the U.S.; insurance will not cover anything that happens in another country. No refunds.
This is NOT a "dibs" sale. This ad will run until at least 10:00 a.m. CST on Wednesday, Feb. 24th. At that point if there are multiple interested buyers a randomized flip will be held to determine the buyer. Payment within 24 hours is expected, and if a sale occurs by then the chips will ship next weekend.
Feel free to post or PM with any questions. On to the pics!
