Sitting Out
What is the percentage that Paulson comes back to the home market? Thanks.
I would say vote with your wallet and stop buying the Gemaco marketing chips by GPI. They will not be inclined to return to the home market until they see their finances hurt by their decision.
My hunch is that it is more likely to see a new company try to fill the gap before Paulson comes back.
It could be quite the opposite. Vote with your wallet, and show them there is still a market by buying tons of Gemaco marketing chips...
BTW, I don't feel GPI is going to "feel the pain" either way.The home market just isn't something that moves the needle for them.
They make way more from casinos than from the home market. They don’t need us.No idea how big the home market is. But it’s a $100M company, which is not huge. $1M per year in revenue is not negligible for them.
I would start by putting a want ad in the Buy Sell trade forum.I sorta stop paying attention to this market until I recently wanted to add on to my Paulson Classic chips and now I am completely sad I didnt buy more of the $25s and $100s when they were selling to the home market, curious has there been any success in trading chips, I have $1 and $10 I really dont have a use for anymore.
I havent had much success finding these chips either the supply seems to be super low and even on eBay people selling very little. Any advice on anyplace to get some $25 and $100 would be appreciated.

if you’re still looking for $100s I have a barrel $2/chip I think I paid?Does anyone know how many of these chips were actually produced? I know they aren’t for sale now and hard to find and just trying to figure out what my odds are actually accumulating 2 more racks of the $5 chips.
Any feedback would be appreciated.
Sincerely,
Frustrated incomplete set owner :/

$5s you’ll find them. TONS were made the only problem is that I feel (and could be wrong) that the average chip enthusiast who doesn’t know about this forum will likely only be looking/think of WTHC, Classics, and Pharaohs when buying clay chips. This could explain why despite the large supply they demand such a high price.
Compared to most chips on here I would say yes. I would guess the demand higher prices than classics (ugliest inlay maybe ever) and pharaohs (bland spotting) because people prefer they way they look compared to the other two. It’s also possible less were made than the other two but I personally don’t know if that’s actually the case.Maybe I misunderstood but are you saying there is large supply of WTHC?

I actually like the way they look a lot, the colors and feel are amazing. The inlays don’t other me at all.
I have a decent set now and wish I just bought a lot more $5.
Current set if anyone is curious is
200 $1
400 $5
40 $10
200 $25
100 $100
25 $500
1 $1000
Roughly 100,000 were produced, I think. Trademark Poker would know exact amounts.Maybe I misunderstood but are you saying there is large supply of WTHC?
