Something weird about those ... have they been sanded? There's no texture on the faces, and three injection-molding remnants are visible.

Call me crazy but those look like they are not legit Paulsons. You can see the injection mold spots.

 

[Saoliver]

@Josh Kifer

Never mind.

Also, from the description (my emphasis added):
Average 6 grams each, so lighter than more recent Paulson home chips.

Crazy, I didn’t look that close.

Paulson recently started adding lead to the plastic to get them up to 9gs.

Yep. They're fakes.

Changed the title. Looks like another Tina job, great work! The site should be happy to have a new competitive mold.

Currently at a buck/chip with 26 bids and a day to go. Someone is getting screwed.

Fat Hat Rim Mold?

At least they had the sense to copy THC.

Uh, these aren't ceramics, and they aren't new either. Chips like this have popped up from time to time for years. I'm still looking for some previous references but I'm 100% certain I've seen this kind of chip before, long before "Tina" chips became popular.

 

[JeepologyOffroad]

Same. I think @ReallyGoodUsername has found some with these marks before? But they actually felt like real paulsons?

I’ve seen plenty of hat no canes, but I don’t think I’ve ever seen these.

I was referring more to the mold than the material. The hats only has been around forever but the canes are a new thing.

I just can’t believe that somebody has enough money and reinvented the technology for making new poker chip molds.
Common wisdom tells us that these things “are way too expensive to get made” and that the technology to make them has “been lost in previous ages”. Glad to see a new renaissance in metal working.

but the canes are a new thing.

I don't agree.

Oh yeah nvm that’s different

These have an "innie" dot, absolutely no texture, and their rolling edges look a bit funky. Hope someone here gets them to handle/inspect them in person but likely buyer beware.

 

[ReallyGoodUsername]

This is as close as it gets to real clay, I think:

Here are several of the original plastic chips (note injection marks):

Per old @BGinGA post, "innies" seem to be plastic injection mold and "outies" clay Paulsons?

Looks like he deleted and relisted without calling them paulsons.

 

[BDub]

I saw these when they were listed. I lol'd and moved on. I didn't think to post them here for everyone else to enjoy!

Edit: While we're on the topic of eBay, is the seller maxwaxpax on here (openly)? They seem to have killer sets, but for TOP dollar, and they don't ever seem to sell.

That tends to happen here, LOL. I wonder how many people here PM'ed the seller.
