Life is Grand! (7 Viewers)

Primary condition stack. The $5s are the grand opening chips. Really hard to tell the spots apart on the 500. Those are stacked opposite spots on each other.

Wow those greens cleaned up nicely. These chips are a real headache. Like being in an empty candy store

500s and 25s are probably the two worst denoms. Although the pri 25 has something going for it I guess?

People are sleeping on the secondary $25 as either a Cali frac relabel or in a T25 set with the other secondaries. In the current lineup though, it does feel out of place; it would have been a killer 3d14/4d14.

Get ready for a s#!t-storm to come your way.

I got crucified early on for suggesting the $500 primary was the dog of the bunch. That was before we knew for sure that the edges were silver and gold. I thought they were just 8 white spots. The colors do improve them some, but it's still a fairly boring design.

I love the primary $25, but the secondary $25 edge spots are fuggled. Poor progression for those who care about that. Someone suggested using it for a frac. I would agree with that.

Yeah, I agree the sec 25 is decent on it's own, but in this line up it's just a bit out of place. The pri25 is cool, just with some condition problems maybe?

I don't get the love for metallic gold/silver in general to be honest. Especially here where it looks like a dull single color 818. Feels a bit lack luster from pics at least!

I look forward to seeing it in person though, might be I will change my mind. Hoping I will get my sample before the actual sale goes live, lol.

I really wish that one of the 25s was sec colors with pri spot pattern.
I have it in hand now and agree the 818 pri 500 is lackluster and you have to look hard to notice they are different colors.

The primary $25 just seems washed out, like it was left out in the sun. It’s odd. I’ll try cleaning it and oiling it later.

Where has all the RHC hate gone? The air is way too clean, we need more smug up in here!

I know, right?
The last time I bought an RHC set, I was in between THC sets. Maybe I hated them just because they weren't THCs? That was mean of me.
Now that I have some THC lead on the shelf, bring on the shiny colorful RHCs!

I just said the same thing to someone via text after cleaning my samples. Even the spot colors look a little faded too, like a pastel-ified chip.
