Well what would you use them or the case for?
I like to play 6-8 handed so there aren't enough chips for that. If you only use the case, same problem, not enough chips fit to make a decent one table set.
The chips themselfes might be ceramics, they might be cheapo plastics but what are you gonna do with a breakdown like this anyways?
I'd put those $80 into a nice set or even just part of a rack that I know I'll use.
