Please don't get excited because these Closet of Junk Auctions chips are mostly going to be my lesser chips. Think of it as if America auctioned off Boise but kept all of its other cities.

My laziness requires that I sell all of my junk that I won't be able to use for anything all at once to minimize the number trips to the UPS Store. I'll be staggering the ends of these auctions both in terms of ending times and days so as not to confuse the fuck out myself (which is easy to do), and chips will be shipped within a few days of the conclusion of the final Closet of Junk Auction. Everything is priced below what I paid and represents an attempt to be below what I think is FMV, but I'm not @Jacks and I'm not starting an auction at $1 cause I've seen what y'all do with $1 auctions these days. This is why we can't have nice things around here; I'd rather just hurl the chips at @Josh Kifer as a deterrent when he tries to do inappropriate things to myself or others in attendance at COTS playing in the higher stakes 4/5 card games.

101 Flamingo $5s. Casino used condition, but I believe edges are maybe nicer than most Flamingo $5s that pop up for sale on PCF. I wish the coloration was more consistent, but this may just be par for the course with Flamingo $5s, IDK. Anyway, CONUS only. I only ship via UPS and shipping will be $20 added onto the final auction price. If shipping ends up being a little less, I'll refund the difference, but usually it's not less.

I have what I need, otherwise I'd jump on these. FWIW, I'd prefer these go back to the cage. I don't like any live $5s other than mine being in the wild.

Can't beat this price. It would cost above face to get these directly from the cage, after tipping out the staff.

GLWA.
 
Ok, 505 (first)
Full disclosure and I meant to include this in the original post, I paid $7-$8/chip over various small lots, and the different small lots may account for some of the slight color variation in the rack I compiled over time.

I've demoted myself to lurker status until I can get the guys in my poker group to kiss and makeup and we can get our games going again.
Until then I'll just keep watching you......that's not weird right?
I mean, it’s weird, but it’s like the least weird thing I’ve heard on PCF this week, so I guess that makes it not weird? Maybe the proper term is PCF non-weird :)
 
Brothers, countrymen.

Let us first determine if @Quinarrie needs these with the flamingo $1s.
I already have 4 barrels of the $5's so..

can promise gorbash that we will not be abandoning this project and putting it up on classifieds at winning auction price or lower
 
Free bump observation question asking for a friend :-)
Extra chip in that barrel on the far right side?
Cheers,
GLWA!

I think so, as per the title the auction is for 101 $5s and I think the extra chip is in the far right barrel.
 
Watermelon, right?
That seems right to me, but hopefully someone can confirm. I originally intended to put them in my Flamingo solids set thinking it would be kinda fun to have one spotted rack in the mix of radiant red solid $5s, but the two colors were just too different for my taste.
