Yes, none of the others come available, I might want some secondary 25s. I like the larger edge marks on those
Yes, thank you. People are kinda nasty on here lately.

meaning you consistently have to pay duties on 300+ orders or that's the point where you usually get dinged, but sometimes it's lower and sometimes higher?
not feeling so great now. what's the percent? some charts seem to suggest 13% but seems like it depends on how they categorize it.
Welcome to 2021. Try not to take it personally, I think we're all a bit more an edge from the virus and changes in normal life. Plus, we all are fighting for the same chips, so more dog in the fight lol
Yeah I would have gotten some of the secondaries too but the newer condition doesn't match what I have in my mixed set unfortunately. I love those edgespots, I think gear described them as 3 half circles (3HC?) instead of tri moons since they are not elongated like a tri moon. Pretty cool! Colors are nice too
Can’t you guys drive to the USA and pick them up from a chipper close to the area
Border is still closed I think
Oh snap I didn’t know that.... maybe cus I’m so far away from you fellow Americans
I'm not 100% but last I checked with some friends in Canada they mentioned the border still being locked down
I think they are getting mail from US PO boxes now but as far as physically crossing into the US I believe it is still a no go

Yes, I just use the ignore button to eliminate the negativity from my forum experience. Wish there was one irl . . . .
Don't we all!
Lol I really try not to use the ignore button but I find it helps me refrain from engaging in unnecessary arguements more often than not lol
Some things are better left unsaid I guess?

even if this was safe and there was no risk of them inspecting your car and dinging you for duties anyways, the time and money it takes to drive across the border is enough that you'd need a pretty huge order to justify this. unless you value your time at less than $10/h in which case you probably shouldn't be spending > $1000 on poker chips.
Makes sense, an risk not getting back into Canada
There are still secondary $25s!!! This... Is... Madness!
I did my part and drunk bought 2 racks. Everyone else is slacking.

I’ve literally been swooning over these for hours. You’re a terrible sponsor...can’t resist much longer! I already got a rack of secondary hundos, might as well throw some of these on.

The government converts the value on the invoice to CAD and then you pay the taxes in that amount. If it comes USPS, you don’t pay a brokerage fee. If it comes UPS or other commercial carrier, you will pay a brokerage fee on top.
Depending on the size of your order, you may be better off with the two weeks mandatory quarantine and risking the inspection! Lol!
In seriousness, in normal non-Covid times, it’s totally worth going over and getting them depending on how close to the border you are. I used to go over every couple weeks, get my chip shipments, grab some groceries and be home all under 2 hours. Being half hour from the border and having Nexus definitely helps.

I got my shipping confirmation and tracking. Great customer service Jim! Much appreciated
Chip shipping notices are the best!

Yes, during covid the frequency of tax charges went way down. I just had to pay the other day for a shipment marked as worth $400 cdn.

I was just making a joke about flipping chips, I know you're not a flipper! "buy low sell high, Stonks=stocks"
Glad you snagged a set! Nice pickup
I spent waaay to much during the HSI sales so this time I limited myself to used $1’s to add to a long term casino used set I’d like to finish someday. If they don’t work out then I’ll be selling them for cost in the classifieds.
Thanks as always Jim another fun TCR chip sale!

I was gonna sit out this one, but then logged in, and saw secondary $100s still available. Love the colors, so I snagged 3 racks of them! Great murder candidate, and the someday may end up being Andy’s Palace $1s!! #teamblackdollar
Thanks, as always, Jim!!
