Can anyone harvest some Strats? (1 Viewer)

Over React Much?

First I hate Jersey Shore so no I can’t be overreacting , second this isn’t the classifieds thread so offerings do not belong here, third I’d suggest you learn more about the site, the sense of community here, and the pricing before you post on other people’s threads about what your time and effort is worth. Afterward I honestly do wish you all the best and welcome you to this community. You’ll quickly see that plenty of members will go out of their way to help others at no extra cost and have offers, not always at cost, but fair prices.

100% this. I’m still pretty new here, but right away I realized this community is unlike any of the other forums I’ve ever frequented - and I’ve frequented a lot. Everyone is so helpful and fair it’s almost creepy.

Welcome to the forum @Se7enCardStud! I'm sure you will like it here. Most people here are very fair and the community feeling is great, but it is true that there has been a history of scammers so that is why there is some healthy scepticism towards new members offering services. I love that so many on here is willing to go the extra mile to help fellow chippers out, but I also respect that some people are not willing to do stuff like this for free or paying out of pocket. Maybe you can start a new thread in the classified section to see if there's any interest in your Vegas harvest. Most members here thinks it better to just post a price upfront instead of asking for offers (both is allowed of course, but you will usually get more responses if you put a price tag on it.) But then again if you are not sure on even which casinos to visit based on the interest I guess it can be hard to be very specific about price. Many members here frown upon taking huge mark-ups though, since they consider the members on this forum more as a group of friends. In the end though it's a free market so you are allowed to ask whatever price you want. Good luck, and I'm sure you will like it here!

I love those Strat chips. Too bad I'm not at the Strat this time around. Wouldn't mind a few samples racks a complete set.

FYI I was able to find someone who could get me my 2/17/1 ($1/$5/$25) breakdown for $160 aka $112 in face value for a $48 markup which includes shipping. I’ve already found what I’m looking for but it’s a better deal that anyone on ebays offering so if anyone else is interested in something like this just PM me and I can connect you.

Note: I doubt they can get racks of $1s so please only reach out if you have a relatively small order.

Well crap, now I might need to uber there in October

 

[WedgeRock]

@Rhodeman77 sold $8 chips at face value. He even held them for hand delivery at a meet-up. Oh yeah, and he did not require pre-payment. I think he bought a rack out-of-pocket ($800) and made $0 profit.

2 racks actually. Giving back to a great community.

Though I did keep the 2 racks they came with, a lot of work for 2 free racks!

The contact is from eBay not PCF but it’d be great if you could convince them to do it for free

Anybody looking for a single $5 to check out, $8 shipped isn’t bad, I grabbed one https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https://www.ebay.com/ulk/itm/223630354165

 

[ReallyGoodUsername]

Same, that’s the person who I got to agree to the terms I noted above. Figured if they’re willing to get 2-2.50 in profit from their shipping price (assuming they’re enveloping it) then they’d be ok with doing a slightly bigger order at the same rate they won’t do racks or anything so I didn’t want them to get flooded with those request

 

[djmarc]

unfortunately it has been more difficult than expected to get any decent quantity of $1 chips. I will have some $5's for sale at $7.50 shipped.

5 cranes at Resorts World.. new chips coming in 2020 or 2021?

 

[Poker Zombie]

Last I heard, Resorts World was planning a late 2020 opening. That said, I do not recall a single LV project ever being completed on schedule, so I would anticipate a Spring 2021 launch.

Sold me one shipped to Canada for $8 USD.

Glad I didn’t pay $300 for the rack on eBay yesterday. Not sure if it’s blue grain (I think the color?) or just newer Paulson formulas, but these are the lightest, softest most plasticky feeling THCs I’ve ever handled, not really a fan, though the color is great. Feel much less substantial even than Paris chips.

I recall the MGM $1s are really lightweight as well. Same colour right?

Same color as Caesar's $1s which are very lightweight, don't remember if MGM are Blue Grain or not.

Me either, but I know they are under 9 grams. AS $1s as well I believe

Hey don’t you bring my MGM $1s in to this!

 

[ReallyGoodUsername]

Just kidding... my scales just not that accurate below an oz

 

[kmccormick100]

So THC(ish) mold, .975” recess, will take an unlaminated @Gear label nicely, and light at 8.0g

 

[kmccormick100]

Debating putting it under the knife to see if the inlay comes out...May leave it up to @BGinGA

Does anyone else only see this, when looking at the Strat logo?

Yep. Nice to see another fan of Battlestar TOS

The STRAT font makes me think of Battlestar Galactica except blue instead of yellow.

I thought I was the only one! Hahaha

Nope. Huge fracking fan!

 

[Amish Rabbi]

Probably just me, but i’m Pretty close to thinking I’d prefer a set in that style over thc

They are for sure lighter but I love the color and look of the chip, and my rack will be for viewing pleasure
