Matching chip condition in mixed sets (1 Viewer)

[fish72s]

I'm curious about other's opinion on this.
I bought a cash set Palace Chipco's from TheChipExchange and really like them.
They are in good used condition. Slight fading but definitely smooth.
I added some 5c and 25c "Pacific" Chipco's from ABC. These are brand new
complete with a nice texture that make them stack great.
The graphics on the Pacific's compliment the Palace's but they aren't a perfect match.
But somehow this doesn't bother me as much as the difference in texture and overall condition.
I shuffled-away the texture on a stack of Pacific's and I'm thinking I might actually try to do the
same to all 300. Or maybe bag them and put them in the dryer?
Is this a dumb idea? Would it even work if I do it?
And this isn't just about Chipco's. I would never mix new and used Paulson's either. Actually this would bug
me even more.

If you want the "real casino experience," then mixed condition is fine, right?

It wouldn't bother me unless they are so worn that they are hard to read, as happens to ceramic chips. In a home game, you are good to go.

I am building a custom THC relabel set right now. All of the chips are vintage, and most are mint. Some are worn. Doesn't bother me at all.
