Offer for sale an amazing ACF lot, several rare coins from the largest French club and first stape of the WPT circuit "out of the USA" : l'aviation club de France (the ACF).

The lot includes:
- A Paulson 25 to 25K sample (7 chips in very good condition). These chips were simply played on the WPT circuit!
- KEM cards with the ACF logo: they are still wrapped
- A superb oversized B&G chip that was given to participants of the 2011 WPT
- A metal button with the ACF and its roomonline logo
- B&G ACF cash game or tournament chips (others to add to the lot if you wish).

We are a lucky few who were able to grab the few rare chips re-released a few months ago in France, but these are extremely sought-after pieces.

My price for this lot is €500 or $540 (shipment not included).

I prefer bank transfers, but I accept PPFF (buyer-paid transaction fees).

Worldwide shipping, but fees and liability are the buyer's responsibility.

I guess that explains why so many people have shown up trying to sell these sample sets lately.

So why do NAGB chips get so much hate, but something like this is completely fine? That’s almost $100/chip, makes boat chips look so innocent.

Yes, I'm mentioning it for that reason, and because they were impossible to find before. But I'll let you imagine how quickly everything was booked and the excitement of the lucky owners of this treasure

In full transparency: it was a personal sample for me, a sample given to a friend, and a sample to resell.

Thank you for the transparency. For chippers who pay attention, our most active French chippers are generally just classified participants looking to fleece people.

Very specific individuals like Bobb come to mind, so many thanks for adding some background information to all the ACF sample sales.

On sensitive subjects and with my approximate level of English I will not venture too much, but I am very open to exchange in PM and just an enthusiast who does A LOT of buying and some resales to renew his collection

But open to dialogue because the idea is to truly enjoy each other and have a community approach! Don't hesitate to contribute to the discussion; we're always learning.

On a previous sale, I had a slight misunderstanding when I posted my complementary sale on someone else's sale (and in the end, the buyer did indeed take both sales, which complemented each other well). But I clearly saw that there was a misunderstanding, even though the original intention was good

 

[BarrieJ3]

You’re good. It’s above and beyond what’s expected here. We don’t see a lot of info here on ACF, Europeans are much better than Americans at being responsible adults who can keep quiet

There’s not a ton publicly there on ACF, but of course PCFers can also check out Club Poker, where there’s diff threads like https://www.clubpoker.net/forum-poker/topic/231960-jetonnerie-acf/ and some covering the recent ACF purchases on Vinted.

Awesome ACF lot, thanks for the transparency, and I hope we see you around PCF some more!

 

[Hotus777]

Agreed, thanks for your transparency. I keep seeing these listed and keep asking myself the same question. Ive even seen them in barrels at the same price, crazy.

Anyways, good luck with your sale. If I was in the market for these, you’ll be the first to have my business.

Hey guys, I just hope I didn't misunderstand anyone: when I said "re-released," I meant that tokens had resurfaced in France, and these were the last ones, from a 100% trusted person.

But this is in no way a reissue or anything else that would be a scam. These tokens are real treasures !
--> I'd like to clarify this to avoid any confusion.

There doesn’t have to be any scam to affect the value of a previously scarce resource.

Perhaps it would be useful if you could clarify the following. Here are the previously known quantities to exist from the auction of the ACF chips years ago:

Are the resurfaced chips you are talking about from the known quantity in existence or was there a new find that increases the number of ACF chips known to exist. Thanks!

Thanks for the clarification, I'll go to bed feeling better

There's no doubt about the rarity and quality of these tokens, which is why I'm convinced that the coming months and years will prove it

Yes, I can confirm that the tokens that have resurfaced are included in the count that has always been valid, the only one to my knowledge for the ACF Paulson token's

Thanks for the transparency and clarification. I think there may have been some confusion and people may have thought that there was a “new find” of ACF chips and that the quantities of ACF chips known to exist increased. So it’s good to know that the total number of ACF chips known to exist is the same as it previously was. Good luck with your sample set sale!

Yes, to my best knowledge this is still the correct total in circulation.
There was about 15k chips in the "auction lot" that we got in 2015.
And when a guy released a new lot last fall (the "vinted lot"), with approx 1000-1500 chips, his numbers were in line with the breakdown above. He was a former ACF executive and confirmed to me that this chip count looks right.
Approx 3000 chips still missing

Thanks for the further clarification/explanation, it's very much appreciated .

So why do NAGB chips get so much hate, but something like this is completely fine? That’s almost $100/chip, makes boat chips look so innocent.

The main reason for me that this is fine is that these are real casino chips. Not only real, but from a worldwide known casino, that has over a century's worth of history, and these chips were featured prominently in several WPT televised event. Their provenance is undisputable.

NAGB chips are someone's custom chip set. Nothing more.

As to their value, that's for each potential buyer to decide. However, if some of these NAGB chips are going for $10+ each (which I think is bat shit crazy) then these being offered at 7x that is not out of line. I'm not a buyer for NAGB chips at anywhere near $10 each, so you can guess where I am with these, but these chips are easily worth 7x more than any NAGB chip I've seen.

Dammit, player! This is a poker chip forum. ~Not~ a consistency forum ...

It's always a pleasure to see stars in someone's eyes first: everything about the ACF has an almost magical feel

In France, of course, but also around the world, as has been rightly emphasized: one of the major poker venues at a time of its media and public explosion
