I bought some just because they were Syracuse colors
Ha! I bought the orange 5 because they’re AUBURN colors.

White kind of reminds me of “Cloud”
If you're thinking just regular 60mm ceramic buttons, I would just ask Gene if he's cool putting the design up as a standard offering and then we can just order directly from him Probably easier than running another group buy and the cost differential is likely only a couple bucks at he most. All he'd need is a minimum order commitment so that he meets his minimums for edge printing.

Great idea! I was hoping to have it all done, so I could include the buttons with the chip shipments. But that isn't looking like it's going to happen. So I really like your idea @Darson.

Gotta admit, I'm missing the constant flurry of notifications that this thread provided for a couple of weeks.
FWIW, I'm all about the red and yellow fiver being named "Hot Dog." Or "Weiner."

Yes I've been experiencing withdrawal problems from all the frenzie and excitement of the whole group process. I think I'm getting a little depressed. The zing has gone out of life The only thing I can think of is when will these chips arrive and when is the next group buy

That's pretty funny, because I told Mike the same thing about our private PM's. I would wake up in the morning and have to sift through 3 pages of comments LOL I kind of miss that
How many of those Bill chips do you need to send back?
So are we going to see pics?

You wouldn't be interested in the chips I sent him. Giant inlay sexiness

Hey - - - - - this production + shipping schedule sounds like my chips will be in the week before All-In-at-the-Alamo. They could make their maiden game on Wednesday, August 7th in my pre-meat-up event in my San Marcos Poker Emporium.
A good time will be had by all -=- DrStrange
PS I plan to feed everyone a selection of hill country BBQ including samples from the three of the top 50 BBQ joints according to Texas Monthly. Meat sweats are a real risk.
Unfortunately, this (getting the chips to @DrStrange by Aug 7th) is not looking likely.
We got a little bit of disappointing news from Matsui this morning. Despite the fact that the invoice says "Production lead time is 4-5 weeks from the time payment is received.", and payment was received on Tuesday June 11th, we received a shipping date of July 30th (which is 7 weeks from the date payment was received). Kind of a bummer. I'd push on this a little, but I also don't want anyone rushing when making our chips.

Dang! I was hoping for a sweet reveal and a chance to beat the "new chip set curse" for All-in-at-the-Alamo.
But it is not as though I don't have a few other chip sets to tide me over until these arrive. We will somehow make do.

I'm excited about the WED night game. The odds are it will be with a chip set that I haven't fondled yet
That's probably true for most typical order sizes. 5,000 chips per week is about standard for injection-molded chips, and if they already had another working order before yours, the delivery timing seems about right.

If there was a $500, strong likelihood there would have been a set going to CanadaI just noticed, NONE of these sets are going to Canada! We have Germany, Australia, France, Switzerland, and UK. But no Canada.
Glad to hear about your job offer though @Amish Rabbi.

I have already contacted him about making $500 labels for this set.

I don’t know why I thought that Matsui’s couldn’t be relabeled
And if you want a different chip mold, I have a rack of WPS 5s for sale
It can be done. @Darson has done it.

I'm trying to get something going about making Horseshoe lables for these .... I need T100000, Bounty and All In. With a late July shipping date, that gives us plenty of time to get labels made
I've had conversations with @Johnny5 and @Tommy. If you want to take the lead on this and work with them and @Gear, I would much appreciate it. I am in need of a BOUNTY, REBUY and new T25,000 label for the Horseshoes.I'm trying to get something going about making Horseshoe lables for these .... I need T100000, Bounty and All In.

I've done the same with Johnny5 and Gear .... I also volunteered to do the work
I'm also interested in bounty and rebuy labels for the WPS set.
