Warning, this post contains chip pr0n!
Looking for 3 Racks of Near Mint to Mint 1K chips.
Majestic Star's preferred
I think this is a contradiction.
Majestic Star were some of the most beat up chips I've seen. Granted the higher demons had less play/wear than the workhorse chips, but still...
You do have good taste. After they are cleaned and properly oiled, they are very nice, and leaded (if that's your thing).
I think Jack Cincinnati primary 1k comes closest to feasible but condition is certainly not sharp mint.
@Carnth how many racks do you have brother?
I have a few racks of JC 1k primary. And they are also used and some are warped. I don't think anyone would consider them mint/near mint. If I took the time, I could probably cherry pick through my entire stock and maybe get 2 barrels of near mint.
But, they are not for sale.
I do have a rack of JC 1k secondary that I could be convinced to let go.
This chip might suit your needs as they can still be found hanging around from time to time. However, are far as 1ks go, JC secondary is kind of plain looking with it's 4 thin stripes. But that might be a good contrast against your other chips.
Otherwise, like
@DirtyTIVA said, high demon chips, especially in mint/near mint condition are extremely hard to find in quantity.
HSI might be another chip to look into, but I haven't kept up with them.
I don't know if you specifically want real 1k casino chips. If not, then there are alternatives.
That's why I had to resort to
nagb chips for my DiamondJacks high demon project.
However, even these are getting difficult to find. Take a look at Sunset Beach,
AS,
ES,
RPC--both their cash and tourney chips. And Tiger Palace NCV blaze orange are hella awesome.
I hope this helps get you pointed in the right direction.
