It's funny, because I got them back in 2011 and haven't visited any chip forums since. I play them a few times per year, but hadn't really given a thought to their value at all. Glad to hear that they've retained their worth and then some! Right now I'm just getting acclimated to 'the scene', but at some point I want to do some trading. I can RARELY get friends to play cash games, so the $1's almost never get used.
Agreed. The triple stripe just looks fantastic when stacked. Probably my favorite chip in the set... although the 1000's have a pretty awesome shine to them too!
