This was my instinct. Empty the place out while the chips are still fresh and harvesters haven't fully descended on it yet.
My second thought is that maybe it would be better to skim a smaller number over a larger period of time, perhaps curating a regular source of easy fracs.
But my third thought is that my first thought was right. The casino's not likely to keep paying $1+ per chip for fracs that barely get used and then disappear. May as well get getting while the getting's good.

Hahah well now I feel bad. It’s a very small casino. We did play some table games and lost money (unintentionally) because the staff there was so nice, friendly, and family oriented. They most likely made money on us.
Honestly, we will probably only be going back there to play table games from here on out because they were just that great of people. That, they have a good selection of microbrew on tap, and are close to Fast Eddie’s!

This is crazy talk but I am willing to double your investment of $.25/chip up to $.50/chip for any harvesting for me.
I would even be willing to split the shipping costs.
These chips are awesome. Thanks for sharing and nicely done.

Slip the cage $1000 and ask for 10 racks. Tell them to keep the change.

Well, I went through 2 barrels and here are the only 4 that I can find that I can’t get clean or have scratches. I tried washing with soap and a soft toothbrush. Any ideas?

A magic eraser might get the spots off.

C'mon now, I just paid $3 per Greektown frac. Unreal. Good for you!!! They are beautiful. Grab more with both hands until the door slams shut.

Oh wow. I know I’m new to the chip game, but I had no idea they were going for that much... I’m not sure if I will be able to get more 0.25s, but I’m relatively sure I can get .50s. I can’t speak to their condition though. I am already going to try to helping 2 people with racks of .50s, but if you agree to not resell or trade them off I am happy to try to help after I take care of us 3.

Both fracs in play, seems pretty rare these days. THC .25’s ! The .50’s are RHC and still not bad!
The scratches are rack checks, a light/gentle scrape with a thin (not serrated knife) and a quick scrub with a magic eraser will take them right off. Be careful with the stamps, if you can keep your thumb over top the stamps so the magic eraser doesn't take off the foiling

cool that your card room has .25c stakes
the rooms here have been closed for a year, lowest I ever played was 1/2 and good luck getting your hands on the $1's. None of the chips would be worth bringing home.

I would seriously take 2 racks though, but I'll wait in line, no real rush for me

Not to derail, but they have the coupe leaving on camera with mismatched rims, but the tag or the car were stolen so they have no idea who did it and the case was listed as inactive because they don't have anyone to pursue.

Illinois has some GREAT fracs. But except for Jumers, they refuse to put inlays on their quarters! Which is too bad.
Nice harvest!

This has turned into a dibs thread now. Lol!
So what you are saying, is that it would be wise for any "harvesters" to have phony plates on their vehicle.
I love these teachable moments!
Those are some good looking .25's, what a find...well done!
