Love the Mario chips (2 Viewers)

[ledawg]

I’m all for doing a group but if someone can organize it

 

[Colquhoun]

I guess BRPro still has Chipco blanks? They have been “almost gone” for years.

 

[Sparkynutz]

I'd be in as long as they match my current chips.
225x $1 toad
215x$5 mario
40x $20 wario
20x$100 bowser

I would be able to starting in beginning of Decemeber until end of January. My business job is seasonal so starting in December I will have very few jobs. Usually in January I only have a couple of jobs so I would have plenty of time to do it. According to the rules I will have to get to 30 posts first. I have the days requirement but not the post requirement. However, it may be best to go with someone who has organized a group buy before and has a higher rank.

 

[Rex]

I would be interested in a group buy.

 

[renegadegatorman]

I'd be willing to facilitate the group buy. I still have another 10 days until I have the permissions to post in the group buy thread so I would just create a group message for everything. Since I have never done a group buy I'd like to keep it small(just enough to get us over the 3,000 mark.) I would also have a really short window as I'm trying to get a set in time for my tournament in January.

If you're interested just post reply saying so and roughly how many chips you're in for. I'll start to compile all the participants in a group message and we can get the ball rolling.

If we can get enough chips I would like these:
2 - Dealer buttons
12 - Bomb Pots size 47mm
12 - Show Em size 47mm
12 - Hi/Lo size 47mm

[SkyBlue]

I would buy all the 25 cent and $1 chips but other people have beat me to it. Not sure but I think the seller is trying to sell all of them to one person.

 

[Rex]

I would be willing to buy 300 to 700 chips for the group buy.

 

[ChipWhisperer]

Planning 500-600 pending getting a job in the near future.

 

[ledawg]

I’m good for 400-500. Do we have to ship all the chips to one member to divy out making us all incur extra shipping costs, or could we maybe get BRpoker to do that work and ship to individuals for free?

I only ask because I’m not sure how much it costs to ship chips, and wonder if it’s worth the hassle vs. buying direct through Ryan.

My understanding is that all denominations have to be ordered in increments of 25. So you would have to do:

225
225
50
25

 

[rambiezel]

@renegadegatorman I’d like to be in for 500

 

[ChipWhisperer]

The person doing the group buy has to reship I believe.

 

[SkyBlue]

Whoever does the group buy has to reship the chips. There’s only a minimum order for the single order that goes to BrProPoker. For an example if the minimum for a certain chip is 25 chips then we can order 25 of them and then reship 10 of them to one person, 5 to a different person, 1 to a different person, and 9 to a different person. You will need to do the math for the reshipping costs.

They will only ship to one address. The way it was explained to me by Ryan is we figure out what we want, we pool our money, we give the order and the money to Ryan, he places the order to brpro(he's the only one that can order those designs from them, they won't sell them to anyone else), they ship the entire order to one address, that person then divides out the order into the separate orders and then ships.

 

[ngmcs8203]

Whoever reships will probably be doing so in medium flat rate shipping boxes. So about $15-20 each in shipping costs.

 

[renegadegatorman]

I'll compile a group message tonight and include everyone who said they're in. We're already close to if not at the 3000 mark.

@iLogik small group buy of SPW chips if you still need $1 & $5

 

[iLogik]

Thanks but I was just looking for a quick buy that would arrive before our Christmas tourney.

I ordered 1700 Nevada Jack chips from BR Poker. It took them 7 weeks to produce and almost a week in shipping. I would imagine 3000+ chips wouldn’t arrive before Christmas.

Wow. That’s a little shorter than it takes Tina orders to arrive. I’m surprised by that turnaround time.

 

[Rex]

My BR Pro Poker orders have averaged 3 weeks to produce and one week in shipping. I would imagine the organization of the group buy would also need time to reship, so earliest timeframe 5 weeks.

Full custom?

 

[Rex]

My DDLM were custom, about 1200 chips. I also got 1000* SPW this Oct, same timeframe

Interesting. I think BRPro calls a customized pre-designed set “semi-custom”. Either way, interesting how two semi-custom sets had a 3 week production difference. I suppose you can only do as much work as your printer allows.

BRPro does not require 25 chip increments. They only stipulate that a minimum of 25 chips is purchased…so any number over 25 may be ordered.
