Hi Everyone,
As the title says, I am brand new here. I currently own a cheap 300 set of plastic "Las Vegas" chips that I am looking to upgrade from. I'm shocked at the lack of options in Canada. I am not in a position to be spending 700$ to ship a mediocre chip set over the border. From what I can tell, the only 2 good options for me are https://mrcpoker.com and https://www.straightpokersupplies.com. The selections on these websites are very lackluster and I need some help here.
I need a chip set primarily for micro-low stakes cash games (.05/.1 - .5/1). Evidently getting 5 cent denominations in Canada is impossible (correct me if I'm wrong) but that would be ideal. I can settle for 25 cent chips and using 5 dollar chips as 5 cents. I think I need 800-1000 chips for my 9 player table. I would like to spend less than 500 Canadian which I understand will severely limit my options likely only to clay composites but I am not in a position to spend more at the moment.
I appreciate any advice.
P.S. Apologies if I posted this in the wrong place.
Thanks,
