Thought I'd start a thread this year. Some topics that have already come up:
1) How to spell "Categories"
2) Where do you buy chips in Europe?
3) What stock chip sets would you recommend people consider?

3) Anything from BRpro’s standard lineup.

Mr. C poker store has some decent standard chips for not a lot of money. They’re metal slugs, but they’re better than dice chips. I have a cash set of the Yin Yang chips, and they’ve served me well.

Yeah, hobbyphillic’s audience is looking at chips that are unobtainable at their $6-$15/chip list prices.

John I am still trying to find a sample set of the “Howdy Cowboy“ ceramics. Any idea where to find them? Also, isn’t it kind of odd that GPI will do a giant NAGB of casino level chips but no longer will do the “promotional“ chips like Monaco or Elites? Any chance we see another run of those?

Thanks Hobby, been watching a lot of your videos this week!

I just ordered the "Sample Pack" on the bbopokertables page. It had some Howdy Cowboys. I'd contact them to be sure.

GPI is odd, I agree. I think most people wish they would jump back into the consumer market but time will tell.

Tbf, I found PCF because of Hobbyphillic and look at me now. All I wanted was a simple upgrade on my dice chips!

I’d be afraid they’d destroy my table.

~$1/chip: BR Pro stock designs

Even better, their stock chip prices are .75 per chip in quantities of 100-499. And they have sales or discounts from time to time (or at least they have in the past.)

I think it’s important to keep this information out there. Because their quality is so much better than the Tina ceramics. And because new Chiproom Paulsons are now what $2 and up per chip? 75 cents apiece is a reasonable price point for where these fit into the big scheme of things. Or at least I think so.
