Has Anybody Ever Sold A CPC Set Before It Was Even Pressed? (1 Viewer)

I don’t like to sell anything I don’t actually have in hand. But I guess taking dibs isn’t so bad. I just don’t want to be in a position to leave someone disappointed and have to issue a refund if somehow something goes awry.

What do your CPC mockups look like??

The epitome of scrubdonkeyness, selling a set (at a loss) before it's even made!

Ya I'm still scratching my head on this.

Nope. Because the clay is laid out and punched long before pressing. My chips are made but not pressed.

I did not know this. Super interesting.

Not sure if being the “epitome of a scrub donkey” is a good thing. I’m also not sure what is so puzzling about the sale. I’m out of collecting. Done. I’m selling off my collection when the dust settles. Am I giving up playing and running poker? Nope. I’m actively prepping a new set. A smaller set. But also one that doesn’t have $700 dollars worth of added stuff that helped cause a wrinkle in my life.

You do you man! Sorry it played out this way, but good luck. Sometimes you just have to let something beautiful go due to circumstances.

To be honest, even if I could just cancel the order, I wouldn’t. I want to see these become reality. I love the design. The overall look and mold. When it all comes together it’ll be an epic set. And I sleep fine knowing that they’ll end up somewhere that will be equally cherished. As it happens I already have a suitor.

I can appreciate this. After doing all the work of designing an inlay and going through the work of picking all the colors - it makes sense to want to have the set made regardless of who ends up owning/using it.

I’m sorry, what is a “scrub donkey?”
