Wow I’m surprised you got those so quick!!
Love the inlay nicely done.
I'm jonesing for Justin's next group buy. I think after this Tangiers ends we will be ready to roll in to it!! It just wont come quick enough, need my first customs chips so bad, ha ha
Thanks to air shipping and living close to JFK, these beauties showed up today.
They’re a gift, so not going to show too many pics until the chips are bestowed upon their future owner.
As always, a pleasure working with you @justincarothers

My order arrived yesterday air shipped to Australia, very happy with how they turned out!
I went with the fee free Stardust black label, and chose different base chips for each denom.
39mm Web mold for 5c and 25c &
43mm Web mold for $1, $5, $20
Keen to get these into play and have fun with two sizes of chips
THANKS JUSTIN!

Nice sets! And under 4 weeks from order to delivery, China to U.S., outstanding!
Hopefully, that slow boat isn't too far behind.

I should have paid whatever extra for air ship
I said the same thing last time before I saw the quote! lol Air shipping (for me anyway) was crazy expensive, assuming due to the tariff uncertainty. I just received my Feb GB order, trust me they are well worth the wait!!

I wonder why I like these chips so much......
... Seriously though, these adjustments turned out great!
Roughly how much longer does the regular shipping take? No rush just curious

Do we know when the boat is expected to arrive? for the next group buy can we sponsor a shared AirTag so we can all track it live

I would estimate late June or early July. Kinda depends on order size and other factors.
Last GB with boat shipping went 90+ days from order close date to home delivery.

I asked chatty to help me with the math on this. Now that's volume!
Let’s estimate how many 100-piece poker chip racks you could fit on a typical cargo ship from China, using a standard container ship as the reference.
---
Step 1: Size of a Standard Container
Most cargo ships carry 20-foot or 40-foot containers.
A 40-foot container (FEU) has approx:
Volume: 67.5 cubic meters (2,385 cubic feet)
Internal dimensions: ~12.03m x 2.35m x 2.39m
Let’s focus on 40-foot containers, since they’re more common on ocean liners.
---
Step 2: Number of Containers on a Cargo Ship
A large container ship (like a Maersk Triple E) can carry around 18,000–24,000 TEUs (Twenty-foot Equivalent Units).
One 40-foot container = 2 TEUs
So such a ship can carry roughly 9,000–12,000 FEUs
Let’s use 10,000 FEUs for this estimate.
---
Step 3: Size of a 100-Count Poker Chip Rack
A typical 100-chip rack (with chips stacked in 5 rows of 20) is about:
8 inches long × 3 inches wide × 1.5 inches tall
That’s about 0.021 cubic feet or 0.000595 cubic meters
---
Step 4: How Many Racks per Container?
One 40-foot container holds ~2,385 cubic feet
So:
2,385 / 0.021 ≈ 113,571 racks per container
That’s ~11.36 million poker chips per container
---
Step 5: Total Racks on the Whole Ship
113,571 racks × 10,000 containers = ~1.14 billion racks
That’s 114 billion poker chips in total
---
Final Answer:
You could fit approximately 1.14 billion 100-chip racks — or 114 billion poker chips — on a fully loaded modern ocean cargo ship using standard 40-foot containers.
Let me know if you want it calculated by weight instead of volume!
