Me trying to figure out how many racks fit in a paper box…..

35-37 Paulson boxes per paper box depending on how they are packed. Looks like 12 paper boxes on the left pallet? 420-444 racks on the left side??

thank you! so people just have the connect, they get reached out to and buy them for cheap?
So this is hopefully pretty simple.

@TheChipRoom is a vendor on here. You may notice you are in a sub forum that has a bunch of posts by him over the years: https://www.pokerchipforum.com/forums/the-chip-room.21/

One of the things that he does as a vendor is he goes to a casino that is changing out all of their old chips for some reason, rebranding, bought by someone else, or closed, and he buys all of the chips from them. A few times a year he buys one of these and the way he normally lets everyone know is posting one of these 'on the road again' threads and people speculate about what he's found and what is coming soon. This is the thread we are in right now.

He sorts them into new and used, boxes them up and sells them to the rest of the community. This is probably the single best way to get actual casino chips in bulk at a very reasonable price. Because a lot of people want them normally the sales are pretty well structured.

This is an example of a pretty small sale: https://www.pokerchipforum.com/threads/lake-elsinore-sahara-dunes-sale-thread.95394/
This is an example of a pretty large sale: https://www.pokerchipforum.com/threads/horseshoe-southern-indiana-sale-thread.62028/

Go look at those threads and you can see the structure of them, when they start, how many you can buy of what kind and all kinds of other things like that.

Check it out, come back and ask questions if you have them.

thanks dave.
that's pretty cool, i wonder how much the casinos sell the chips for after they're being rotated out.
so this is how all these previously used casino chips are in this community, circulating?
the jack chips seem very common, as well as indian/ grand, and a few others...

Some are from these sales, some are from 'harvesting' live from a casino, some are chips that the community members have made either individually or as a group, some are from other avenues. But imho the best way for a new chipper to get racks of chips are through these sales.
 
"Jumer’s Casino & Hotel Gaming Chips must be exchanged at the Cashier Cage, according to a Tuesday company release. All Jumer’s Casino & Hotel Gaming Chips must be redeemed or exchanged by Friday, Sept. 30, 2022. After this date, Jumer’s Casino & Hotel Gaming Chips will have no value and will not be redeemed or accepted at any Table Games or at the Cashier Cage."

Sounds like it may be possible to get primaries.
 
Must be some good quality chips at Jumers…they even spent for good quality paper. 28# 92 brightness
Instead of just regular copy paper like the thinner 24# 80 brightness. AND it’s Hammermill and not some generic copy store paper lol
