Have you ever found a genuine Paulson set in the wild? (1 Viewer)

[Spacehawk]

I am wondering if people have ever found a good casino set in the wild not related to this forum or an enthusiast. I know its a slim chance but just curious if anyone has ever stumbled across a set at a yard sale or marketplace for a good price? I know its like a 0.01% chance it happens but my dream is to find a decent set at an estate sale or something similar.

I've found some THCs and a leaded RHC set that I turned into a Tourney set.

Used to be a lot easier, but they can still pop up. Just gotta search every day.

picked up a set of Paulson Fun Nite's (about 400 chips) for $20 at a yard sale a couple of years ago.

Does eBay count? If so, I found most of my chips that way. Back in the day, of course. One of my favorite finds from ten years ago:

Santa delivers!

I know I was always hoping i would get one of those crazy deals. I was even looking for chips, I found that they sell Riedel glasses for ridiculously chip and was looking for that. But always look around for some crazy deal. That was nuts I look at the price twice, and when I got the cashier he said today is half off on green color stickers .

Not paulsons but found this set of trk's last week on marketplace, roughly 400 chips, she was asking $8 , so I have her $10 and said thank you very much, sometimes you get lucky. Very rare,

Bought this set from the original casino owner; counted the chips out of the bank bags he probably poured them into the day the place closed down 20 years earlier. Totally random social connection.

Not necessarily worth much, but as a part of my city's poker history, they're worth a lot to me.
