These chips really need no introduction. Everybody knows the story. For all the newer members who don't know what these chips are about, there are many many threads out there, both discussion and pr0n.

I am looking to sell these chips at my acquisition cost, no real profit, no real loss. Great opportunity for a newer chipper who likes tournaments. I am also going to the (unprecedented?) length to declare my actual costs for these chips for full transparency. I used these chips to park my cash, nothing more, and though I didn't get most of these chips at the original Chip Room sale prices, I did get a reasonable enough deal that any person wanting a new set or to add on to their own set would have a good reason to consider buying these.

These are the chip breakdowns with my costs:

205 x $5GO @$2.00 = $410
205 x $25GO @1.30 = $266.50
150 x $100Sec @ $2.00 = $300
50 x $500Sec @4.50 = $225
20 x $1000Pri @13.00 = $260
20 x Orleans $1 @1.50 = $30 (for use as Bounties - Metallic Silver with the Boyd house mold)
2 x Dealer Buttons $2.75 = $5.50
7 x 43mm Racks @4.00 = $28

Total = $1525 for everything above, and then add shipping (at Canada post prices, from me to you, anywhere in the world, at actual cost; insurance optional). PPFF, or add 3.5% for PPGS.

This breakdown is good for a 20-person T2K tournament with a few rebuys or top-ups, or perhaps a T3K freeze out. Add further 1Ks as needed to accommodate more rebuys.

I will consider splitting the set in half to go to two different chippers who only want a 1TT set-up each (but preference will go to a single buyer for all). If it's split in half, the first purchaser will get the extra $5GO and $25GO, and each will get 4x 43mm racks so split cost will be $765 for a whopping $1 profit for me. Shipping will be on top, of course, You can fight over who gets which dealer button.

These will not be split further. If a group wants to split this set in strange ways, and all chips are accounted for, then I suggest one person buy the entire set and receive it, and redistribute as necessary - it may end up being cheaper this way anyway depending on where all final shipping destinations are.

Feel free to ask any questions in the thread. Check out my feedback, and buy with confidence.

Really...wow! Last time I tried it would not let me complete the PayPal transaction. I'll try again. Thanks buddy! Appreciate the tip
Just tried to add 40 to my cart. Would have let me submit payment, see if it goes through! Think there were well over 2,000 left as of the summer time. Would imagine that number didn't change much.
 
I guess everyone is just fat and happy right now Berny. Maybe hold onto these until Christmas is upon us and everyone is clamoring for a beautiful mint set of Jacks. I cannot believe you still have no takers.

Thanks for the encouragement!

Since there's no interest now, I'll hold onto them until I hear from someone. But I made my pledge when putting together this set a long time ago that I would release it back to some chipper in a completely playable format at my cost, with no profit, and no intent to flip. Nor will this set be put up for auction. I consider it a pay-it-forward to another PCF'er (or two) who appreciates the value and remarkable story behind these chips and would have had no opportunity to participate in the original sales (much like myself).

For all you newer chippers who like tournament play (which seems to be most popular with all home games that I've been involved in), this is a rare opportunity to get a fully fleshed-out set in one go. All the hard work in gathering the needed denoms and breakdowns has been done. All you need to do is receive them and enjoy them by putting them into play.

I'm in the same situation, i'm selling mine for really less than i paid and there's no interest. I think it's a bad timing to sell these amazing Mint Casino chips. We maybe need to wait the end of TCR sale or the end of year like Steppenwolf said.

GLWS!!!
