Does anyone have pictures of the WSOP 25s?
To be clear, those 25's were bought at this sale and not just ones you had already? They look to be in very good condition...
Sets of these went on sale months ago and sold out. This past sale was just for the extra $25’s and $100’s.To be clear, those 25's were bought at this sale and not just ones you had already? They look to be in very good condition...
Both, bought at this sale and bought a while ago, it’s same condition I have 600 25’sTo be clear, those 25's were bought at this sale and not just ones you had already? They look to be in very good condition...
Kind of funny that the 36mm barrel is likely heavier than the 39mm Jack $25s. I really like them but such a light chip.As promised.....Comparison pics
Diameters front to back - 36mm RHC, 39mm RHC, 43mm IHC, 48mm Fat Hat

Same barrel. Weighs 166g and measures 64.7mm.

Unfortunately I think several folks on here are already ahead of you on that - pickings will be slim.Curious on everyone’s thoughts… is it worth trying to build a cash set using only the newer 10th anniversary 25$ chips, the Bacc Room 5$ and a mix of all the 1$? It certainly would feel like a newer more consistent set.
I just weighed the Jack rack and you’re right - 162gKind of funny that the 36mm barrel is likely heavier than the 39mm Jack $25s. I really like them but such a light chip.
All sold out unless it’s an error from PayPal for just the Majestic Star denom
I think Jim still have some leftover stock ? I suspect he had to keep a buffer in case of the PP inventory cork up that happen during the JACK Cincin sale.Was this mystery ever solved? Suspect Jim just wanted off for the holidays.....
Sold out in short, but you can try to approach Jim to see if he had any leftover stock from mis-order or cancellation order etcBut the chips aren't sold out? So confusing.
It’s more of a question… do people prefer the worn leaded chips? Or the newer formula, and not so worn. It’s sorta a tough call.Unfortunately I think several folks on here are already ahead of you on that - pickings will be slim.

I think that is independent to each person. I love the look of mint chips, and the longer life expectancy...however I much prefer the feel of broken in chips. Not a huge fan of completely worn out bike tires, but I'd rather sonething totally worn smooth with less life left over something in between that has tons of flea bitesIt’s more of a question… do people prefer the worn leaded chips?

The thread and the sale are active, yes, but most of the things are already sold out. I believe only the WSOP T25, IOC KC T1000 Sets and the Jack $25 Secondary are still available.Is this sale or thread still active / valid? I'm new here.
Any reports on the IOCs?
Here's a pic of a few barrels of all the chips together.I got a few sets and they are nice. Totally worth it if you like solids. Also make great milling candidates.
The red T5 are practically new/unused with very few showing light use. They show the texture and are harder to shuffle as all new chips are.
For some reason, the higher denominations show more use and are broken in more.
The casino must have started all their tournaments at T25 and probably never bothered using the T5s at all.
The green T25 show use and some grime (nothing near the Majestic Star levels of hooker juice). The orange T500 shows the most grime which I would put at the same level as the used/not cleaned Jack Cincy. Not bad at all.
I only have a pic of the T5. I'll try to get pics of the other denominators later.

I'm honestly too new to collecting chips too make that judgement and be 100% accurate.Are these radiant red? They just looked like normal red in the sale pics.

They look radiant red to me.
Jack Cincy $5 for comparison.

They look like royal red when compare to the $5 redI'm honestly too new to collecting chips too make that judgement and be 100% accurate.
They look radiant red to me. They are florescent under UV light.

I agree, these chips are great. I played with them in a tournament yesterday and got a lot of compliments. The only thing I don't like about them is the blending/dirty stack when paired with the 100's in low lighting.$500’s cleaned and in sunlight, best photo representation I can produce of what they look like in person. Radiant red is even brighter in person. One of my new favourite all time chips.
