Completed CHIPS* New SUN Mold*, WEB Mold, GREEK Mold *APRIL 2025* (4 Viewers)

Dates are expected arrival dates to me

Just wondering- if we don't hear anything by today is it presumed we would be part of the unlucky boat #3 crew or are further updates pending for boat #2 :D:wtf:

Boat 2 is supposed to deliver to Justin on Tuesday - so probably still have some hope lol
No notice from UPS on delivery date yet for boat #2. I will update once the 2nd boat orders start shipping

Recently, it took 6 weeks to get chips from MO to NC. It would show no movement for a week or two at times. Yeah weird routes too.

If your shipment landed in St Louis it might end up in Arizona before it gets to you. I haven’t had much problems with USPS but anything that goes there I know isn’t getting updated for 2-3 days minimum.

It took 10 days to get from Osage Beach, MO to St Louis, then 13 days for an update (moved to another distribution center in St Louis), then 16 days to get to Chicago, then Dallas, then DC, then Raleigh.
 
Any updates from UPS regarding boat 2? Thank you
 
My son Ace got his first custom chips. Hehas been playing poker with his friends from college, even designing a league format, which he loosely named the Spartan Poker Club. These chips will be paired with cut cards from @Okku's group buy (but the boy doesn't know I ordered them yet).

Before anyone says anything, the designer warned about the uncertainty of print quality, text/images being too small and the possibility of washed out backgrounds. He was also warned about 500/10000 dirty stacks.

The joy of opening a new delivery of chips.

Full sample set:

He chose the small Greek key mold for its connection to Greece and the Spartans.

The 25 celebrates Michigan State's last national championship in ice hockey. The background is a sheet of ice, but is washed out to my old eyes. The boy says he can see it. The chip color is an homage to BC's colors.

The 500 celebrates MSU's last national championship in basketball over Florida. The background is supposed to be basketball hardwood. The chip colors celebrates the Florida Gators.

The 2000 celebrates MSU and is differentiated from the other chips in that it's a 4U. The background is a map of East Lansing, and shows each of the places he lived and the College of Business.

The 2000 celebrate the Greatest College Football Game, the 10-10 tie with #1 Notre Dame. The chip colors are a hat tip to the Fighting Irish. The background was supposed to be the grass of a college football field, but washed out a bit.

Finally, the 10,000 is another tribute to MSU, on the banks of the Red Cedar. I suggested a grey base, but the boy wanted it like this. Acknowledging dirty stacks are possible, his argument is that there never will be many 10,000s in play, which is true.

Thats such a well done set except for the $10k. Eventually the red 25s will make them want to jump of a bridge too but not until theyre casino degens.

If he got 25 or 50 x 10k its no big deal to redo. And he will redo.
 
is it just me or is USPS messing up big time lately? all my packages (including this one) are getting sent in opposite directions of final destination and then taking forever to get delivered.
This is happening to my chips as well
 
Yeah me too. I've been "in transit to next facility" for 5 days.
Same! Mine came in two shipments. Interestingly, one is stuck in the in transit to next facility phase, while the other one is closer to me and might deliver tomorrow. They were shipped at the same exact time from Justin. Also interestingly, the chips on one shipment were 20 minutes from my house, then got shipped across my entire state, then back to my city again lol
