It's time to sell these coveted tourney chips so they go to a chipper's home where they'll see play. These are among the most sought-after tourney chips/colors and hard to find in quantity.

Buyers wishing to buy a single set will post in this thread designating set of choice until Sunday 3/6 at 6:00pm EST. At that time there will be random hold'em hands dealt and posted to determine winning buyers.

Payment:
via paypal Friends/Family or buyer assumes any additional fees. Price includes CONUS shipping and insurance via USPS. International buyers welcome but I will need to obtain a quote.

Liability:
I will obtain insurance and take all steps to collect on insurance should the chips not make it to the buyer for whatever reason. If/when insurance pays out, the buyer will be reimbursed for the amount paid by the shipper.

I've been watching with interest as I have a set myself I was considering selling. But I can't escape how cool it would be to combine all three sets into a mega set.

Do it. Win big in Vegas, then scoop them up.

I almost suggested to @courage that he message you about this set before putting it up, but I couldn't remember for sure if these were the ones you had. Would be great to get the full band back together...

Sorry, my eyes aren't great, what is the condition of the chips/plaques?

Tempted. This will make me seriously chip-poor, though, and preclude CPC customs... Le sigh...

I think this would make you Chip Rich, and cash poor!

As I recall, the chips were in excellent condition for casino Tournament chips....That perfect level of broken- in

Well I'll put this out there. If anyone scoops up the full set from @courage, they would have first dibs on mine if they wanted to make the mega-set.

Let me post some additional pics. Plaques still look mint. Argosy chips vary because casino use. The T1 and T5 are excellent, the other denoms have some flea bites that are common with these but imo don't detract much. I think I used this set maybe 5 times.

 

[QuiQuog]

Sold! Lock it up, I'll take 'em.

 

[guinness]

This set is so money. I agree that casino solid hotstamped tourney sets are the bomb.

And after level 10, beware the PLAQUE ATTACK!!!

 

[jbutler]

Sold! Lock it up, I'll take 'em.

Hope you're picking up @bentax1978's set as well for full Argosy tourneygeddon.

 

[QuiQuog]

If anybody is interested in Avalon hotstamps, I'll have a set coming up soon due to this purchase. Stay tuned.

Wow, awesome. Now I have seller's remorse!

Sold. Thank you. I'm not gonna close thread just yet, got a funny pic to post.

What a terrible breakdown. You need 240 25s and 240 100s to spread two tables with 12/12 structures. And you don't even have any T1s. What garbage.

Well done taking them all and not splitting it. These deserve to be kept together in a good home - love these tourney chips.

I guess there's no crapping rules since it's not my thread.


Carp on.

I'm already getting payers remorse. It will probably go away when the delivery high comes!

 

[bentax1978]

I know. I just wanted to invoke the carp.

Always a good time to carp.

That'll go away soon. Not as bad as having not pulling the trigger soon enough remorse.

Get bentax's chips too and you can have a T60K tournament for 30 players with massive chip stacks. 20/20/15/4 plus 1 T25K plaque. End game can have all the T100K plaques in play too.

 

[courage]

Awesome set, great breakdown - sorry to see you let these go Chris.

If the casino history isn't enough, this is the set with which Bergs battled two Canadians to the death to the now-infamous "USA! USA!" chants. (BTW, guess who busted 4th in that tourney...)

I hope someone is able to come in and buy the whole thing, and keep this set together. Solids not really my thing, or I'd be all over these. GLWS! (y) :thumbsup:

Not the tourney table but similar crew. Some jackwagon busted my girl Kimi's KK at final table when she's on the button and he makes a move with A8 from BB, all in pf. Thanks, @JoseRijo

Uh, I don't think I'll be needing that many chips. I still need to feed my kids after all.

Is this set and the one Bentax owns all there is and was of these chips?

 

[jbutler]

Not sure. @courage and @bentax1978 could probably tell you. I think CT Josh still has some.

 

[courage]

I think CT Josh still has quite a large set (he and I worked together on a purchase). Beyond that, I don't know of any.

 

[links_slayer]

He still had them as of last April when we met for lunch

If it wasn't for luck, I'd lose every tournament.

LOL that you can remember the exact hand. I think I busted Bergs shortly afterward with a dominated ace. I am so terrible.
