Is this really what I’m looking at? (1 Viewer)

[davislane]

Taking inspiration from the Imperial Pacific Saipan treasure adventure I see...

even only it was that simple!

 

[Mushmanchuman]

This is incredible dude! I would have drove a week for them! Very very cool!

 

[dizzyChipper]

FFS!! Dudes been here a week and falls into that!!! Dude is running so hot.

 

[dizzyChipper]

Over 4000 chipcos and 2000 paulsons.

 

[Mushmanchuman]

Drove from Wichita Ks to Fort Worth Tx for them.

Dude you are so lucky to have get these! I check FB almost daily and would have tried to get these. Not likely to get them to ship so I would have been out of luck.

My buddy from Davenport, Iowa called me yesterday on his road trip. He was in Denton just outside of Ft Worth! I had a person in the exact city that could have easily scooped up this MASSIVE score for me if I would have got on it first.

BUT I was power washing buildings all day and didn't check marketplace in the morning. I ALWAYS check Dallas area as well.

I am very proud of you for pulling the trigger and going and get these. Well done!

Awesome score

What were the other chips in this amazing find?

Just some ceramics that are very used but there’s a whole cash set enough to run 3 plus tables lol

Those are still in good condition....really used ones have a white ring where the artwork has been shuffled away.
Old Chipco's are great ceramic stock...use them for a game or two and you'll love them.

By far my second choice if I could never own a clay set.

Yeah those chipcos rock. Let us know if you’re gonna piece those off!

 

[rustycheerio]

congrats!

Just a tip here but you should read up on how to pack and ship chips safely. I’m sure you’re no dumb dumb but, a lot of new guys send out chips that are not packed well enough.

Nothing worse than getting your package and hearing moving chips in the box. One of the biggest things is securing the chips within the box. They should be packed so the individual barrels are secure. I like cling wrap if I have no boxes.

I push my boxes off the counter to make sure they are bomb proof as well.

Great score, well done!

And good on you for paying it forward, you are a better soul than me!

Great feedback. But please @PokerKS528 if you plan on selling a bunch of these off just purchase some chip boxes (often referred to as warnecke).

You can purchase them from many places, including here https://spinettisgaming.com/product...chip-box-with-lid?_pos=3&_sid=507d46c59&_ss=r. Message them for bulk discount.

Fricken pet peeve that I’ve had to purchase a couple hundred of these from people always sending hundreds of chips with no box, wtf.

Every 3rd or 4th dealing I like to send chips out so they arrive like this. Just to keep things interesting, plus it's funny.

Let's make a deal!

Congrats on find and having some run good! Next time share AFTER you pick up

Loved reading this and seeing the sheer size of the haul at the end.

Legendary status.

 

[Chips523]

Great Score well done.

I packed them tight and wrapped in individual packing

I’m trying to keep up with all of the messages. If you have not received a response from me in awhile please reach out again!! Tons of people have been blowing me up!

 

[rustycheerio]

your best bet would be to auction stuff off

If I had permission to post in the auction section I would have listed a handful of racks already

I would double-box those....and maybe even tape groups of wrapped chips together. Nothing worse than a torn box, and with the way those are now, chips in those smaller groups may not stay together in a ripped-box-scenario.
Most here put whole racks into Warneke-style or CPC chip boxes...wrap them, and then place those in double flat-rate boxes with padding. The majority of chip shipments go without a hiccup, but you want the heavy box of chips to be able to handle the occasional drop/crush/rip without issue.

Good idea. Appreciate the insight

Nice! Double box em though. You’ll probably have to cut the internal box. And make sure to tape all the corners. Tape tape tape.

Remember, think of your package tumbling along a conveyor belt and falling off or getting dropped.

Will your package be able to handle that? Cheers and again way to go man!

How much is the score worth?

 

[PokerKS528]

How much is the score worth?

Rough value I’d say $8-9000

 

[brewdawg]

My backyard

MIne too, how did we both miss them

 

[allforcharity]

Rough value I’d say $8-9000

As an entire group all at once, maybe. Broken down into a few usable sets with good breakdowns, probably a few thousand more.

came from “For Sale” section based on the comment of “recent events” and very cool find, and kudos to you for giving something back to seller/community!
