For info the plaques are Bourgogne & Grasset...They come from the Authentic set, just made for the European market at the request of Bourgogne & Grasset France.

Just curious how one gets quantities of 300, 329, 271 and 161 without playing with the chips? GLWS?
They came together from several smaller purchases back then, not one single set — I bought them in individual quantities from a seller in the US, which is why the numbers are a bit uneven.

Isn’t AI handling the replies?
Haha, I promise it’s all me — though I might need an AI to handle all the replies at this point 😄.

I thought all of the posts were suspicious for that including the OP, but sort of gave the benefit of the doubt that it might be translated/cleaned up with AI rather than being generated pure. Plus you could use AI to write inflammatory responses too, so I guess I can give some credit for that.
Haha, fair enough — English isn’t my first language, so I use some translation software to help me write clearly. Definitely all me though 😄. And thanks — I’d rather keep things friendly than start fights.

We are the market! National, international, global, and universal!

We even control the market on Mars, Saturn, and Jupiter.

Alternate timelines, and galaxies included. Xander, Vormir, Titan, and Knowhere all look to PCF for prices.
Haha, okay, I get it now — PCF sets the intergalactic market price 😄. Guess I better stay on your good side!

Definitely not. This one has the history, and it shows OP to be a stand up guy who quickly recognized he needed to make some adjustments. Starting a new thread would be like running away, as if he had something to hide.

I honestly hate when sellers close a thread, only to reopen a new one for the exact same item. It comes across as shady to me.
Really appreciate you saying that — thank you. I just wanted to handle it properly and be transparent. Glad it came across that way.

Hell of a price drop. Ggs.
Gotta keep it realistic 😉. Appreciate it.

Offer: 15 schnitzengruben

Tempting offer 😄 — but shipping Schnitzengruben internationally might be tricky!

Amen. The verbal guillotine’s and machete’s come out lol
Haha, yeah — lesson learned! The PCF crowd doesn’t pull any punches 😅.

Oh wow, I didn’t even know that! Thanks a lot for the info — really appreciate it.
 
@GerChipCollector I want to you praise you for how you have handled the response.

Secondly I must tell you about the qoute button.
Thanks so much! And yes, I’m still figuring out the buttons here 😅.

You can look on the plaques and see the BG logo in small print
Ah, that makes sense! I honestly thought they were Paulson Top Hat & Cane because of the hat and cane design 😅 — didn’t notice the tiny BG logo before.
 
Jeez, guys, lay off. The post appears honest. The chips beautiful. Good T100 tourney break down. The plaques do make this a rare set. Not all high-priced sets are owned by long-time PCFers that make obscure references to Ken pricing. Get over yourselves.

If anyone is seriously interested in the set but put off by the PCFer being new, I might be able to verify them in person if both parties want/agree.

@GerChipCollector welcome! Don't mind the cranks - most are good guys who forget that occasionally. You're doing fine. Good luck with the sale (GLWS)!

Thank you so much for the kind words and support — really appreciate that. And thanks for offering to help verify, that’s very generous of you. Glad to be here!
 
You know - new member, seems very cordial under fire, after all they probably see wanted adds offering $30 to $100 per chip, has a pretty collectable set, and people here really know how to roll out the welcome mat, NOT!

What happened to the no thread crapping rule? It’s fairly embarrassing sometimes watching people flex their seeming vast knowledge on unsuspecting newbies. I’m sorry for the poor reception, you’ve shown much more class than the responders, welcome!

That was like two whole days ago, we're on to ACF now.

To be honest though, there were only two actual disparaging posts anyway, and that is even questionable as I believe that correcting inaccuracies in a post with regard to chips was once stated to be fair game by a mod, if done respectfully. The rest were just cheekily poking fun. The first hour of the thread was completely different than what followed, and once OP edited and proved to be a real and reasonable person everyone instantly changed their tune. We're all rooting for GerChipCollector now.

My comment, which sadly shared the same sentiment as btp, is more so the fact that if you even “glws” certain people’s sale threads, you’d have a warning or your house burned down by mods/admins.

I won’t speak for others, just personally I would be looking for any modicum of consistency.

I know that admin/modding is a thankless job, and there’s nothing they can do right to make everyone happy at once. But the whole excuse of “it’s too big a site and too much work” having resulted in them only adminning/modding when their gestapo reports it is no bueno. I guess that’s the downside of one person owning all of this and the whole site following their unwritten rules.

Shrug.

It's actually a big plus to the set. B&G makes the absolute best plaques.

This has been an interesting journey for me on this forum. I have been a member of several other forums over the years for different hobbies (watches/guns/knives/edc gear etc) and this is the only one that seems to allow this sort of posting in a sales thread. Every other forum I’ve been on would consider anything other than a “dibs” or “I’ll take it” as thread crapping. Even a “GLWS” would’ve been seen as cluttering up the sales thread. Not saying one way is better than the other, but this has definitely been different for me.

IMHO this hobby is still very small so the few can really weigh heavily on matters

Thank you so much for saying that — really appreciate the kind words and support. I’m just glad to be here and to learn from everyone, even if the welcome was a little intense 😅.

Thanks a lot for that — really appreciate how things turned around. It’s been quite an introduction, but I’m glad to be part of this community 😄

I get where you’re coming from — moderation can’t be easy on such a big forum. I just appreciate everyone’s input and how things have balanced out in the end.

Yeah, I totally get what you mean. It’s been quite an experience for me too — definitely a different culture here compared to other forums I’ve been part of. But I’ve learned a lot already 😄.

The thing that makes this forum different from many others is that a lot of the really active members actually know each other personally. Once you have been here longer, you will unlock access to the meetup and home game forum. I have personally met PCF members who live from one coast to the other in the US and Canada, as well as several foreign members. I've been in several of their homes, including one in Iceland! And some of them have been in mine. Most of us like to think of PCF as a community, not just a forum.

So yeah, sometimes we take liberties and treat other members like our red-headed step-brother. And many of them don't take it as well as you did. So welcome to the community. We're glad that you're here.

Mi would also say that personalities reflected in the forum isn’t always how they are IRL. Like I’ve met several people I thought were A-holes based on forum, but they’re cool as hell IRL. I’m probably similar. I can be nice on the forum but an A-hole IRL

Haha, love it — thanks for the smile 😄.

That’s great to hear, thanks! They really do have a nice feel and sound.
