Canceled Windwalker Grail Sale #1: ACF Paulson STT set - 400ct. (1 Viewer)

In looking at some of my "grail" sets (I use the term in the context of its PCF meaning, not biblical), I am doing a limited release of a few playable sets from the ones where I have an overabundance, with the hope that someone else gets to own / enjoy them. These are priced high, and will probably not have too many interested parties, but if I am going to let them go, this is the price I would do so at.

This sale is for a single table tourney T100-base set of ACF Paulsons in an excellent breakdown for 20K stacks with some spares and rebuys.

120 x T100
60 x T500
120 X T1000
80 X T5000
20 X T25000

Since these were chips actually in play in the famous casino in France, they are not mint, but they are in excellent condition. The higher denoms are near mint.

Price: $27,500 USD

This is a dibs sale, and I will be accepting Golden Ticket holder dibs on the sale. I don't expect many (if any) dibs on this, but am putting it out there, in case there is interest.

A few notes:

- No splits
- The price is non-negotiable
- shipping included in the CONUS.

In six months, $27,500 will be a steal!

$70/chip, basically. Insane. Different realm of existence.

It absolutely is. We all on the same lake but some boats are bigger than others. I’m happy with my canoe but if I could rent these and play one game with them I’d do it. I’ll check my lotto ticket tomorrow. Maybe I’ll have a new set heading my way

How much for a 5 minute finger?

What goes in to determining this valuation? Comparable sales? Spit balling?

Personally, I’m rocking a noodle. I’m jelly of your canoe.

$70 is the new $20

In all seriousness - GLWS Krish, I hope these find their intended audience and that they all see more table time.

 

[lapincretin]

Everyone wants it and no one sells it. 50€ the chips or more. That's right.
Everything related to the ACF has dramatically increased, the same for the old French Cercles, but the ACF is the ACF.
This series is just fantastic in every way.

By the way, I don't have a full sample, Batman if you split ...

For this type of chips it is rather very reserved by knowledge, we sometimes find some individually but it is quite rare now.
The same goes for B&G cash or other games, there are some very rare ones because they are little edited or removed from the tables for various reasons. In fact some B&G of the ACF must exist in 2 or 3 items, as everything that had a value has gone to destruction ...

 

[Changster]

This set is so baller.

 

[upNdown]

yes

no

And wasn’t there some solemn pact among the Frenchmen, to never let those sets leave the country?
I’m pretty sure I read that somewhere, but I have no idea if there’s any truth to it.

Curious what the entire lot cost

However much it took, I’d guess.

It cost the Aviation Club de France about €1.10 per chip.

Step 1: Dump all your THCs for $0.10/chip
Step 2: Wait for the new EOD mark-to-market valuation on THCs
Step 3: Buy back the THCs you really want
Step 4: Profit

How much would it cost for me to remove each chip from the rack, inhale deeply to smell the aura of the chip, and gently replace it in the rack while serenading it with the smooth silky sounds of Eric B and Rakim?

Firstly, you have to compute the azimuth of the Earth’s axis to the equator of the moon on the holy equinox...

The other steps involve a pole with an arcane crystal on it that needs to be mounted in a cave within a sand dune, a passageway that shoots arrows at you, and the square root of my liver’s circumference divided by Josh’s rage multiplied exponentially.

Then Krish looks at all of this and says “ehhhhhh I dunno about twenty seven tree fiddy” and rounds up.
