I'm kinda torn between:
-Ordering from CPC, waiting up to a year, and paying over $3/chip for something with limited resale value and zero chance of getting extras if i want to expand the collection (due to differences between batches), the upside being I would have my own unique set unlike anything else using exactly the colors and edge spotting I want.
and
-Paying $1-2/chip for a set of Paulsons with colors and edge spotting I like, then having them relabeled. Whenever I wanted to add to the collection, all I need to do is watch eBay or this forum. I could order and add to the collection gradually, and additions would arrive in days or weeks, not months or years. Also, if I wanted to create another set or rotate into something different, Paulsons never lose their value. The problem is you have to find a color/edge design you like and it won't really be as "uniquely you" as a fully custom from the ground up set.
What would you do, and why?
