New chip feeling (1 Viewer)

[Bergalicious]

I’m still new to the chip game, I just bought a brand new set of Milanos from Amazon. They have this waxy feeling, is that normal for Milanos or did I just buy the lower quality chips?

I’m not that familiar with Milanos…are you comparing to other chips you’ve felt? Have you used the Milano chips before?
We have a mantra around here to get samples whenever possible, just to avoid any surprises. Maybe you can return them if you’re not happy?

Milanos are decent mid-grade chips, but they’re going to feel much different than actual clays, ceramics, or even other “China clays”.

Do you not like them, or do they just feel different than you expected?

Yes but people will have some expectations for him carrying the name that translates to the ‘action junkies of the degens’

I bought some from another member on here and those felt better. The ones I bought didn’t feel as good.

that’s not the first time someone has mentioned a difference among Milanos. Here’s a thread from a while back with a similar issue:
