Flush
Hi all,
I'm completely new to PCF, and (full disclosure) stumbled across the site while looking for home games in my area. I hadn't realized how popular and complex the world of chip collecting was, or how knowledgeable and passionate people are about the pastime. It definitely opened my eyes to a whole new way of looking at the humble poker chip!
So I realize that this set I'm asking about is probably a POS as far as most of you are concerned, but I got it as a gift, and it is 500 clay chips (or so the box says). After reading a few of the forums I have learned that there are several different makes and types of chips, and I am just curious if anybody knows anything about this particular set -
Thanks for your patience with a total newby.

are they China Clay (read that term in a forum here about oiling chips), or some other type?;
are they standard size or some weird non-standard diameter (read on another site that they may not be standard size)?;
could they be relabeled with custom labels (they don't have denominations)?;
would it be worthwhile to relabel them?;
am I being laughed at for asking stupid questions?
Thanks for your patience with a total newby.
