Patience, gear is very busy and has a long line of work orders

Another pro tip. Every time you message him it takes your pm to the top of his list and he works from the bottom up. So following up seems to delay your order

It is tough to be a new chipper.

@ABC Gifts and Awards can take care of you and is super fast.
no, I didn't use any other person to help me. Chris at gear label finally came around and got his stuff done for me. I know its frustrating waiting on labels to get done so you can get your chips into play. hopefully he can get around and work on your stuff asap. sorry to hear about what you are going through. I never met the guy but he does seem to be really nice.

That's why you have 7 different sets!!!
Hi guys, especially @dkq999 and @Jeevansluck .... I sincerely apologize for making you wait. It's not my intention to deliberately ignore anyone, but I have certainly managed to drop the ball quite a bit lately.
We're underway with dkq999 now. Nav, I suggested it will be 2-3 months for milling (because it's time-consuming and I have a lengthy backlog) but if you just need some labels and know what you want, that will go much faster (especially if there's no shipping wait time.) LMK!
Again, I apologize sincerely for letting you all down.

Wait, I thought you said if I shipped mine tomorrow you could get the milling this weekend?
I would suggest exercising some patience around "wanting" to get some chips into play immediately, vs "needing" to get some custom labeled chips into play for a scheduled event. There is no other place to go than Gear Labels. In my experience, Chris's reference to "dropping the ball" is really him wanting to satisfy as many member's orders as quickly as possible while working under a full workload.
If you want the expertise and precision that comes with placing an order with Chris, I suggest taking a deep breath, and accepting it will get done.
Kind of like waiting for Santa Claus as a kid....

No need for any apologies here Chris. You are in demand and that isn't bad. I think as a new chipper, I do need to learn about the virtue of patience. There has to be good reason you are in demand and maybe that is what makes it worthwhile.
I feel bad I posted about you negatively. I was up real late last night and you probably don't deserve that kind of negative commentary about waiting etc. You did tell me 3 months and after 2 months, I'm not being patient enough.
There is no matter of being let down at all Chris. I'm sorry for my overreaction. I will make sure I get my chips to your place by the end of the week...

Yes sir! Thanks for the good advice.
While you were typing this advice, I was apologizing for my lack of patience!
I'm learning here...
And yes, the santa Claus metaphor is pretty accurate to describe my realizations this morning...

Not to come off as a smart ass here...but I cant even fathom a life where I would be consumed and unable to wait a few weeks for poker chip labels.....milk for the kids well that's a different story. I understand you sent money already, but you are buying a product customized to you.....not something pulled off of a shelf. I know your new here, and I would guess fairly young, but if you would take awhile and just search using "gear labels" you will find hours of reading of extremely satisfied customers and friends, but you will also learn that with all good things there is a wait....ask all if the people here that have ordered from CPC, or been part of a group buy from inception and design to actually having them in their hands. My advice would be to order, pay, and forget about it until they show up on your doorstep.

Like okay. I have already apologized for my impatience.
I changed the original post. There is no need to continue this...
Heh. You mean you want us to stop beating the horse once it's dead? What??! That's not the PCF way!

I feel like this is about the time someone asks about a private group buy lol.
I really don’t think an apology from @Gear was necessary here. There’s always going to be a wait time for custom products, it has nothing to do with being a new chipper or not. There is no instant gratification when it comes to custom work, if that’s what some are after then I suggest finding a new hobby.
Seeing people whine about the outstanding service and product from Chris really rubs me the wrong way, he’s been awesome every time I’ve worked with him.
Its just poker chips, not life and death folks!

Take it down a few notches.
Don't like it, put me on ignore.
Huge overreaction post dude. Go fly a kite
Chris felt the need to apologize, which was caused by you. The over reaction was your whiny post.
Here we go! Buckle up!
Coincidentally, I do have a full white beard. (I'm not kidding)
I have a white beard too, but I just got in a bag of powdered sugar.
It's delicious.

Golly @Gear
I've embarrassed myself here. I sincerely apologize. I changed the words. I've learned my mistake...
It was 4am and I wasn't thinking clearly.
