Wanted 80x Flamingo $5 and 80x spotted $1 (1 Viewer)

[OfficerLovejoy]

I'm planning to assemble an old school live/custom flamingo set for my .25/.25 game.

I'm thinking:

200x .25 canary yellow solid custom hot stamps ( @Josh Kifer )
200x spotted $1
80x live THC $5
20x relable $25 (no chip chosen yet)

Right now I have:

120x spotted $1


Looking for 80 up to a rack of flamingo $5 in used - very good condition.

Also looking for 80 up to a rack of used - very good condition spotted $1s (bird or no bird - both are welcome).

If you have any you're not currently using, I'd love to let them see the felt.

Willing to pay a good price and I have a reshipper in the US.

I actually found a barrel of these in the back of my vault and I think - as an overlable - these would make quite cool Flamingo $25s:

The spot progression works great! I use them as an overlabel $25 and as much as I try to find a newer/better candidate I keep coming back to the Aztars. They’re so bright.

Just ignore the house mold lol

Bring your flamingos out!

@Windwalker it's time for your return and then return that rack of spotted birds I saw you buy back into the wild.

@David O pretty please?

 

[OfficerLovejoy]

I got a few "maybe I have a couple somewhere" but nothing definitive yet.

Anybody out there who has a few spare flamingo $5s?

 

[OfficerLovejoy]

I found a couple of fives on eBay and sent them towards my trusty reshipper @arch3r .

@ReallyGoodUsername came through with a few spare spotted $1s and he seems willing to accompany me on my quest of completing the set.

Also @David O offered some help from his spotted bird sanctuary but nothing final here yet.

It'll be a marathon but I'm off to a start now at least.

0/200 used canary yellow solids

Another eBay find pushed me to 10/80 and let me complete my first half barrel/shuffle stack of flamingo $5.

Only 3 1/2 Barrels to go.

C'mon PCF, I can't believe eBay is beating you 9:1 as of now.
There have to be a few of these in circulation among fellow chippers.
Just get in contact with me and I'm sure we can work something out.

I gots this mint rack…would be open to trade or cash possibly.

Pm sent

Just received two spotted birds that I bought back in September 22.
I was sure they got lost on the way from the UK to Germany.

That gets me a little closer to the finish line.
