A few days ago was my 1-year anniversary of PCF membership. I want to thank everybody here for your patience and kindness in teaching me, a complete noob, about the ins and outs of chipping, home poker, and online community spirit. I would like to celebrate this special day with a small series of auctions. Pardon me while I make make a brief explanation.
I have tried my best to be up-front about my fundraising efforts - I will be organizing my next casino charity event in February. I am currently gathering funds to see if I can purchase a real honest-to-goodness used 0/00 roulette wheel (got my eye on one in a private sale right now), but I'm a little bit short because of my need to turn over chip inventory. I've been looking for a reasonable deal on a wheel for some time, and I think this potential acquisition will help to enhance not only my own fundraising, but also the efforts of others around me for their fundraising endeavours as well (I'm volunteering for two more hospital-related events in the first half of next year). And it will also give @T_Chan a bit of a break because I'm always mooching off his wheel
Being aware that there are many worthy causes besides those I am involved with, I would like to try and help @MoscowRadio in his medical treatment efforts. The GoFundMe details are here at https://www.gofundme.com/4c84n-please-help-my-brother

I have decided to sell off the remains of my Starburst collection, since I was never really in the game to use these in place of cash or tournament, and I don't really need to build a roulette set with these since I've already reached my chip goals. So I would like to see the chips go where they will be used and admired and on the way can do some good.
For your consideration, we have a small collection of Starburst chips on the rarer Diamond mold. There are a total of 33 chips, and they are all in Excellent condition. These are combined with one setup of casino used Kem's that were a gift to me from @navels (appreciated, for sure, but have since bought many other decks from him).
Quantity and colour breakdown for the chips are as follows:
Red x11
Blaze Orange x11
Day Blue x8
Dark Blue x3
Starting bid for this lot will be $40. Every dollar of the final winning bid will be donated to the GoFundMe campaign to help @MoscowRadio (The auction winner may make the donation directly, or it can be done through me, their choice). Winning bidder will be responsible for shipping. Willing to combine shipping with any other auctions or sales of my offerings here on PCF.
