Hey yall, I'm new here and looking for some nice chips! (1 Viewer)

[Landon_Shiesty]

Hey everyone, I’m Landon, I’ve been just starting to dive into the amazing world of poker chip collecting! I haven’t bought any chips yet, and I got to say, the aurora star tournament set is probably the most beautiful one I’ve ever seen and I’m trying to find some nice metal slug abs sets that are similar to it. I think the vibrant colors along with the standout design goes perfectly! If anyone wants to talk poker chips, or has any recommendations for some nice ones to purchase please let me know! I’m glad to be here

Hello and welcome!

Nice ABS slugged chips is almost an oxymoron.

If you want to shake loose an Aurora Star tourney set, be prepared to offer a lot of money.

That’s fucking awesome.

I think you will fit right in, here.

Welcome. Unfortunately, this is an expensive rabbit hole, and we've all been there. Starting out, your tastes and tolerance (for emptying your wallet) will change. The AS Tourney set is one of my faves as well, but I started out on a budget, wanting nice plastic chips too... I tried making custom stickers to put on cheap plastic chips, lol. Every dollar I spent on that endeavor was a complete waste. I then upgraded to chinese clay chips, Milanos. I still have and use this Milano set for traveling, so the China Clay chips are respectable, but expect to pay 40c-50c/chip. Moving to Paulsons and customs is the eventual path. Enjoy the journey!

As other have mentioned, you can’t replace Clay with ABS plastic.

They are okay as placeholder set while you saved up for the Clay set but sadly not as a replacement.

First of all welcome!
You are in a Porsche and Ferrari forum asking about Fords.
Take your time, read a lot and see a lot before you buy anything.
By the way, get samples (which can also be shockingly expensive as a start)

That is a great set, I do recommend getting samples as you probably have already. Your tastes and preference will change as you play with different type of chips.
