Hi everyone
New member from Perth, Western Australia.
I have been playing low stakes poker with a few regular mates (friends) on and off for a few years and wanted to make it a more enjoyable experience with some upgraded poker chips and came across this excellent forum. Looking forward to reading all of the advice, viewing the pR0n and getting some ideas on upgrading our game on the near future.
Thanks for letting me join.

Thank you all for the warm welcome. It is nice to be a part of a quality forum. Should I go straight for the Paulsons or start with some ceramics and tread the well worn path from there? The journey is part of the fun isn’t it?

Speaking of putting shrimps on the barbie. Are there many Australian members?

It's pricey collecting from this end of the world, especially with shipping, so be sure what you want before you jump into purchases (unless you can afford some costly mistakes anyway lol)

I'm down to one Paulson cash set and one cpc tourney set these days, but i could be tempted to bring the paulsons along in return for a cash game invite lol. I've got a small tourney league with friends, but I've found it hard to convince them all to play cash.

It's good to see finally see some more Perth members.

Hi @Perthmike
I think I am going to build a Paris cash set for our small stakes game using harvesters and the Classifieds. Do you think it is worth using a US shipping forwarder that will consolidate the packages into 1 package?

Are there any alternates I can re-label to use for the $5 in a Paris cash set?

Also in Perth. Morley but currently looking to move to Carine.
Had similar thoughts on a Paris set. Any progress?

Hi @drdr
Paris set was all sorted in 2023 with the assistance of some US members: @casinochipper22 , @Oscargambles and @PokerChipSavant . Shipping was the killer, even with a US re-shipper. I also over-labelled some Casablanca $25's and $100's using Stickermule to complete the chip set. I love it. Totally worth it.
Get some if you can.
