you know, the price I can understand--people just dont know what things are worth.

but when he states a "complete" box with...99 chips, I have to share with the forum and laugh.

WOW... $850. Maybe I need to dust off my Rigdon & Cos. They are really nice chips to play with, great feel, but that seems a bit steep.

I saw those this morning and almost sent the seller a message.

Okay Seeking,

The Rigdons--kind of obscure and your set, well, Ive seen some of your collection and I'm wondering---does that set ever get played?
Or is just about the hunt, and the collecting?

I'm not sure how off that is from all the vendors around that describe china clay chips as "true compression molded real clay"... There's people like us in the hobby, then there's everybody else.

Oh yeah. The Rigdons get played a lot. They really are fantastic chips. Seem to have a bit more clay content than Paulson or BCC, although I'm no expert.

The seller had no idea what he had. Had them eBay with a low buy it now with real bad pics. I asked for a good close up, received it, and couldn't hit buy it now fast enough
