Cancelled



Let's start with the fact that I HATE raffles. But here goes....

I recently won an auction for the best tourney chips ever made...the Empress Star primary tourney chips!
The auction was for more chips than I needed (OK, more chips than I can afford to keep), so I'm holding a raffle for the chips I don't need (can't afford to keep).

Here's your chance!!


This auction is for a total of 300 chips, as follows:


T25 x 80
T100 x 80
T500 x 40
T1K x 80
T5K x 20

1 dealer button

NOTE: If the winner wants to add on T25 (up to 80 more), or T100 (up to 40 more), the can add them at $140/barrel. Winner gets first dibs at these extra barrels, but they will go up for sale after the raffle, if the winner declines the add-on.

Chips are in uncirculated condition.

The raffle is open for 100 tickets.

Price :
1 ticket $28
5 tickets $115 ($23 each)
10 tickets $210 ($21 each) --
my hope is that 10 people want to gamble, and we'll get this over with :ROFL: :ROFLMAO:

Shipping in the US with signature confirmation is included. Insurance available at winner's expense. International bidders welcome, but additional shipping charges will apply (actual shipping cost minus $20). I will ship anywhere in the world, however once the chips are accepted at the post office, I will no longer be responsible for international packages, should anything happen to them along the way (although I will package them VERY well).

You can chose your ticket number (1 to 100) but you have to post it, first come, first served.
When 80 tickets are reserved, I will start collecting payment via Paypal F&F. After receiving request for payment, you have 48hours to submit payment for your ticket(s), after which time your ticket will be released as available to others for purchase.

I reserve the right to cancel this raffle at any time before 80 tickets have been sold. (loophole in case a great TRK set or other set I've been looking for becomes available in a trade that I can't pass up!).

The winner will be determined by the first two digits of the evening drawing of the New York State WIN4 lottery:
https://nylottery.ny.gov/win-4

The lottery will run the next calendar day after the last payment has been collected.

Yes indeed, I priced tickets to incentivize the 5-ticket bundle :)
 
Belgium is more central in EU and perfect climate for chip survival.
We are so small, big countries can't even find us.... and we could have the best soccer team of Europe, possibly the world.
Plus, we have choclate & beer + waffles

What's not to like ?
 
But do you still have all those canals and bridges
and cobbled streets and those churches and all that beautiful
f*ing fairytale stuff over there?
 
44/100 claimed.

Where will these chips end up? Right now, it seems like they might end up back in MY chip vault! But if this raffle get traction, here is the current ticket location distribution:

United States: 18 entries (41%)
France: 6 entries (14%)
Canada: 5 entries (11%)
Belgium: 5 entries (11%)
Switzerland: 10 entries (23%)

Grab some tickets today. Let's do this!

Switzeland the new France ?
 
It seems like there may be raffle over-load, and raffles may be generally dead. I thought these chips might be an exception, because they're SO AWESOME!!
But it doesn't look like it.

I'll leave this up until July 5th, but if we aren't near full by then, I'm going to pull the plug and keep most of this set. I'd pull the plug sooner, but I'm going on holiday :)
So if you're on the fence...reserve those tickets while you can, to ensure the raffle is a "go".
 
Ya know, I'm going to pull the plug on this. Too slow, never going to fill.

So...if anyone wants to buy the set, hit me up. I have more than I need.

Also willing to sell some spare barrels of T25 and T100 if my set can stay balanced. Or trade some of those for T5k or T25k.

Have a great weekend y'all.
