Here we go! I love the T-mold, but I have another T-mold set and no plans on making this a custom set of mine anytime soon. None of these chips have been played to my knowledge. There are some chips with marks/stains of other colors on them. Below are some pictures:

Breakdown:

242 Sherbert green
242 Charcoal
122 Lavender
170 Canary Yellow
102 Chocolate
12 Hot Pink
50 Royal Red
30 Dark Green
10 Purple
10 Grey
10 Dark Blue

New price $700USD shipped CAN/CONUS


I also have 200 Horizon blue chips that are already stamped. I will probably wait a bit to see if a buyer wants these together with the 1000 blanks, otherwise I could sell them separately. Regardless it would be an additional $150USD. I have to borrow a picture since I don't have them in front of me. They would ship later.

The minimum I would accept is $850USD shipped CAN/CONUS but I'm looking to make a bit more than that. :)

They would require milling to be labeled. Keep your money Bill, don't you think you need to add to your TRK set? ;)
 
I have had 2 sets of t-molds in the past and wonder why I ever sold them.
That was a few years ago so my buy/sell prices probably aren't relevant.
But I think the best price point for comparison would be http://www.holdempokerchips.com.
Many of the best colors, like some of the ones you have here, are sold out. But they can still be had
for 69c / chip.
GLWS. If you break the set up I may be interested in a rack or 2.
 
Yep there's definitely some still available at 0.69c/chip. I paid a premium for a select few of them but not many.

If holdempokerchips had more canary yellow chips when I bought them, I would have more. :)
 
Great price. If I didn't have to have them milled i would probably snap buy them.

Great liking solid set
 
I like these a lot. @Gear , what would it cost me to have all of these milled and labeled? PM is fine if you won't want to post it here.

Thanks,

@Azcat had a Tmold tournament set back in the day. Always liked playing with those chips.

@detroitdad, it might be cheaper to pay for custom dies and get these hotstamped. I think it was $50 for the die when I had my tournament set made. I know how you like solid hotstamps... Might even be able to get just denoms done, if that's what you're after. CPC has stock denoms (or they used to when they were ASM).
 
Let me stress how absolutely perfect these chips are for a hotstamp. I had a small set years ago and they were gorgeous. Don't know if it's the color of the chips, the quality of their composition or what, but it was a match made in heaven.
 
These would be cool for a fantasy secondary Samurai Palace tourney set. You could hot stamp the kanji character (Samurai) from the inlays of the other chips to tie the two sets together in a theme.

Purchasing/Milling/Labeling is out of my prices range. I don't like dropping my bank roll below 4k.

Wouldn't the chips still need to be milled to be hot stamped? Otherwise is there a concern for spinners? Normally I love a good spinner. Not in a poker chip.

Hot stamping was something that also occurred to me. I don't think CPC would hot stamp t molds. It doesn't hurt to ask. That will be my next email.

Lets assume cpc won't hot stamp t molds. Who/what are my other options?

@Frank , if you would rather I take this discussion else where let me know. I'm guessing you don't have a problem with it. I feel like I should at least ask .

You would definitely want someone experienced to do the stamping, so the could properly scrape the excess material. If that is not done, you will definitely end up with spinners.
If you get someone who knows what they're doing, these should come out fine!(y) :thumbsup:

I'm searching PCF now and sending out some PM's.

Spragg got back with me. They only stamp their chips. Stated that it works best with fresh clay.

Note that's true with ASMs/CPCs, these were from BCC so it's a different clay / fabrication process. T-molds stamp beautifully (had these stamped last year with stock from holdempokerchips):

edit to add: these were stamped by monkeydog

(I'm not sure how I mean that:)

I've reached out to a few people. I didn't know that he did them at one time. He'll see the tag eventually and sound off I'm sure.

I had 15+ year old Nevada Mold chips stamped by BCC. Came out great. CPC just doesn't want to deal with other mfg chips. Makes sense though -- If they screw them up, they can't be replaced.
 
@SuckoutKing did mine many moons ago. He was a true artist and craftsman. Don't know if he's still active...
Unfortunately, No I am no longer in the Hot Stamp game! Ended up selling my hand stamp press to cgraham86. I would recommend him greatly. Does very nice work.
Felt like once BCC sold, all the really good stamping chips were gone. ASM ofcourse are still around but there was just something special about those BCC chips for stamping!

Good luck with your sale Travis! Those are some real beauties (y) :thumbsup:
