Sold Paulson Skyway Bowl Cash Set (1 Viewer)

For sale is my skyway bowl cash set. The set is in casino worn condition. All chips have been cleaned except 500 of the ones. They have not been oiled, and would benefit from the oiling.

I am selling to fund my CPC customs.

The hundos are spectacular in person, with metal sparkles in the chips. The pics don't do them justice.

I'm going to sell by auction. Auction to end at 9pm eastern time Sunday May 15th, but will remain open past the deadline if the next bid is placed within 5 minutes.


Rules:

- All bids are to be placed openly in this thread (no PM bids allowed).
- Bid is for entire set.
- Bids in minimum increments of $20.
- Edited bid posts will be voided.
- Bid does not include shipping or payment fees.
- International PCF'ers are welcome to bid (a) as long as you are a current PCF member as of the start time with at least 15 posts (or if not, otherwise seek my approval) and (b) you pick up all applicable shipping/handling costs & fees. The chips may go FedEX or UPS. The USPS is unreliable for insurance.
- Auction closes Sunday, May 15th at 9:00pm EDT and incorporates the "5 minutes after last closing bid rule". Highest bid before 9pm will win the auction unless there is a bid within 5 minutes of closing time. Then the closing time will be 5 min. after that last bid was posted. For example, if someone bids at 8:55pm on next Sunday and no one bids after, then the auction ends at 9:00pm. Done! If there is a bid at 8:58pm, then that bid is good until 9:03. And more bids can ensue until 5 minutes time has passed without a bid. This eliminates last second sniping.
- I reserve the right to change the rules at any time, but will do so with the intent of running a fair auction.
- For the same reason, I also reserve the right to cancel the auction at any time and/or void any/all bids.
- Tommy and PCF are in no way responsible for any actions in this auction.

Thanks, and good luck! Feel free to ask me any questions.

Breakdown:
Dirty ones: 500
Clean ones: 230
Fives: 703
Twenty-fives: 205
Hundos: 42

Total bank: just over $14k
Total chips: 1680

Starting bid: $400

I will take a buy it now of $1000 any time the current bid is not greater than $800. If anyone wants these at just under 60cents per chip, you can have them.

Still missed ^this one.

I hope it is now completely fixed. Sorry for any confusion. At least the end date is a week in the future...

The moment of BIN price truth will soon be upon us.

 

[Chicken Rob]

The buy it now is 1680 chips for less than the price of 100 Dunes $1 chips. We'll soon see if my BIN has any basis in reasonableness.

I think at a minimum we can say it wasn't a dumb BIN in either direction since: (1) no one snap-bought; and (2) we're getting very close to the BIN-cancelling bid.

GLWS Looks like good interest and a good sized group of chips

Yup. I am a master of setting over/under lines at my work place, but didn't think I'd get so close to a good line here.

I have 19 $25 chips that I can sell to the winner of this auction, which would effectively add another barrel.

You're way better than me Rob, that's for sure... When I saw your BIN price I was sure it would get snap called in seconds... Heck, the last thing I need right now is another large set and I was 'this' close to write you for the set...

Anyways, good luck with the sale man... Great set and a great chance for someone to have a super flexible and large set of casino Paulson for a few cents more than China Clays...

If I knew I could get at least '50' participants at $20/per, I'd BIN and we'd have a raffle. Thoughts from the community?

 

[Chicken Rob]

I wanted to check the interest on this with my initial post, but it became a rule infraction as we're not allowed to make interest only posts in the classifieds any more. So I ran the auction to be within the rules.

If you collect the BIN money and run a raffle, I'll help out any way that is reasonable. Like shipping to the winner, actually running the lottery, etc.

Just let me know. The BIN is good until the bid goes up $50 more.

Folks, if you want a raffle - post your interest here. Hurry up before it's too late.

 

[Chicken Rob]

Buy it now price includes free shipping to contiguous 48, and discounted shipping to all others. This includes lottery winner.

I've received this question by PM and thought I should share the answer with all interested.

Updating my bid to $781

I love it. The next bid is either the BIN or kills the BIN.

Is it wrong to buy a ticket in your own raffle?

 

[madforpancakes]

This set is super tempting since I live in Seattle!

Depends if you re-raffle it after you courage bink it the first time around

If other raffle participants don't object, I'd buy a ticket. I think as long as the raffle is run transparently, there shouldn't be an objection, but I'd defer to the comfort of the lottery ticket buyers. If even one participant objects, I'd abstain.

 

[thyechal]

I will take them. PM sending.

I will keep around half and sell the other half, just in case anyone is interested.

 

[Chicken Rob]

Sale pending.

If anything falls through, I'll let everyone know.

 

[Chicken Rob]

Sale is final. Thanks for all the interest. Congrats to @thyechal!

Yeah thanks to everyone with all the likes.

With chip prices going crazy as of late, I couldn't pass this up.

Between you and H|Q, it looked like these were destined for Ohio.
