Greetings, fellow chippers!
As previously hinted/alluded to/promised, I have embarked on a project to provide converted fracs for current owners of Big Easy Casino Cash Sets. The original sets themselves were not produced with a frac, and there were too few available snappers to provide many opportunities for a full overlabel/relabel for more than only a few early buyers. Since fracs are popular (and required for what seems to be the most popular $0.25/$0.50 stakes for home games), I wanted to be able to provide a useable alternative at a reasonable price. Enter the BJ R4s!
In a previous life, these chips were roulette chips from either the Sheraton or the Roadhouse Hotel/Casino in Tunica, MS that were available from @TheChipRoom since last Black Friday. All the chips had their original inlays removed, then were ultrasonically cleaned, and then had specific labels produced by @Gear applied to them. Take a look at the following pictures, showing the completed racks and also the customized fracs beside the cash progression of the original BEC chips:
The designated colours (for the purposes of this thread, at least), from top to bottom, are Brown, Arc Yellow, Tan, and Teal. I have the capacity to make some more racks of the following colours (some have been pre-sold to early interested buyers):
Brown - 2 racks
Arc Yellow - 2 racks
Tan - 3 racks
Teal - 1 rack
I might also be able to get up to 3 racks of Pink, if anybody is interested in that colour. There are, of course, many other colours of R4 roulettes available, but these specific colours were chosen because they work quite well in the cash progression. Other colours were rejected because they were too similar to one of these base chip colours. Note that the inlay diameter of the R4 roulettes are 31/32" while the original BEC S2 chips are 1 1/8".
These chips are being sold by the whole rack (no splitting into barrels). The base prices (not including shipping) is $90 per rack, if you have previously bought at least 1 Cash Set of the original BEC chips, or wish to order at least 1 Cash Set with these. If you would like a rack of these without purchasing/having purchased at least 1 Cash Set, then the price is $120 per rack. Payment is by PPFF, and I will ship to anywhere in the world at Canada Post prices.
As I am awaiting some of the chip stock for inlay removal and cleaning, there will be an initial delay of two weeks or so before the customization is done and it's ready for shipment.
Please feel free to ask questions in the sale thread. Review my seller feedback, and purchase with confidence.
