Hello,
This is my very first thread! So I'm in the market to buy a new set for my home cash games (I live in Brussels, Belgium). Right now I'm using Nexgen chips but I'm not happy anymore with the denominations/break down and the look of the chips. I really like the Majestic set from Apache Poker, and appreciate the fact that there is a 5cents denomination. My problem is the huge cost for shipping: it's almost as expensive as the set itself! (not mentioning the additional taxes at the EU borders). I have already spent hours on the internet to look for a good poker chips website inside Europe but I just can't find what I want. Eventually I started to contact vendors on Alibaba. The results are interesting and they sent me a picture of those ceramic chips that copy the famous "Casino de Isthmus" design. They can adapt the design to any denomination and use the € logo! Check the picture below! So, what do you think? Should I give it a try? Anyone has bought chips via Alibaba? Do you recommend a good website inside the EU? If anyone from Belgium reads me, could he give me advice?
Best,
Ezra
