Milano vs Majestic? (1 Viewer)

[Elvenslurpee]

I have a sample of the Milanos but prefer the spots and colors of the Majestics. Are they essentially the same quality and feel? Or should I definitely get sample Majestics to try?

Don't buy anything without samples. You'll find the Majestics more colorful in person. Also, there are 43mm's from apache coming available soon. Different spots but very similar to majestic.

Majeistics are said to have better quality control. Milanos vary in color shades and thickness between batches, and basically stink; and the stench insists even after being sprayed with cologne; at least that has been my experience with samples from both.
Majestics do not stink and seem to be better made, although you would have to compare different batches to talk about consistency.
As the Dragon said above, there are also 43mm china clays coming from Apache (Majestic-quality ie).

And like @PlaidDragon mentioned, look into the 43mm that Apache is producing.

The sample set I had certainly did... along with the Milanos, CPS and Pharaohs.

Just checked out the 43mm designs. That's a big wrench in the plan, they look great!!! Thanks for all the advice, everyone

I like the Majestics more. They feel a little better and their colors pop more than the dull Milanos

Purchased over 8000 custom Majestics in a group buy at work a few years back. Everyone is still extremely happy, and some are asking if they can add on. Looking forward to the 43mm.

I like the looks of the Majestics (more vibrant) but I like the feel of the Milanos (edges are less rounded and not as slippery). The Majestics slide around too much in stacks and feel more like plastic chips. The Milanos are more stable in stacks and feel closer to casino used Paulsons.

To the OP, here you have two differing opinions on feel and both are correct because preferences are very personal things. This is why getting samples is important.
