Found PCA $5 Secondary (1 Viewer)

Help.

Need quantity but will take any that are available. Don't have a whole lot to trade but I'm open to any discussion about $$ and can be very flexible with anyone who has racks available.

Meh. I thought they were worth $500.

Well now that’s just silly

 

[Jhoov2412]

I wanted to add 2 more racks around the start of the Covid stuff last year but went with Empress instead cause they were half the cost. Now I wish I had just bought both.

Blue edge spot on red base...Such a boring/predictable chip in my opinion. I think the $25 is cool though.

They're bold and sharp, looks classy AF, probably top 3 favorite red chip in qty but yellows will always beat them out for me.

I understand the "boring" sentiment (especially from Cali-set-whores ), but I would personally call them classy. Add in that they are leaded/shaped and I think they are definitely worth five bills, relative to the current market. Now at $1,250...

“Cali-set-whores” haha thank you

Yeah they are leaded and shaped inlay etc etc but I think they could have done so much better with that edge spot pattern. Why pick blue?!

I actually agree, I just get where the love is coming from. I am also a Cali-slut; it is just harder work in acquisition.

The $25 and $500 are definitely the stars in PCA lineup for me.

 

[jpietrella]

For me, at least now, it's more about the set as a whole rather than a single chip. $500s and $100s are fire, $25 is great, $5 is a top 3 red $5 IMO and shaped inlay frac? Yes please. The $1 being RHC is weird but I've come to appreciate it in its own right. Top to bottom, pretty tough to beat.

it’s a crowded corner luckily I have low chipping standards (my Caminos are boring AND used )

ok so now we have established that PCA $5 are boring (or classy) - will someone please sell some to @jpietrella ?

I've never hated being poor more than right now.

(it is a matter of perspective, could be a blessing in this case )

In all seriousness though, you will eventually get them I’m sure. In 12mo time here I have learned that the concept of chipping « vault » is used loosely.

Welp. This seems futile now, but I'll still be here for anyone with a soft spot in their heart.

Sorry bud. At $800, I was squarely on the fence. At $1250, it was a no-brainer. When the whole point of the set is to build it bigger - up to 4 racks of $5’s, maybe - and it becomes suddenly apparent that that’s impossible, I sell for $1250. I can get philosophical and grumble and be principled with the best of them. Until somebody says $1250. Then it’s easy.

Yeah, I guess I can't begrudge anyone for $1250. I'm more just sad for my incomplete set.

 

[FordPickup92]

Just came to say although we may not agree on things, I am sad for you too. I've been lurking in the shadows letting everyone fight over PCAs while waiting to add another rack or 2 of 5s to my set. Not gonna happen now.
Sorry to all the PCA fans out there who haven't finished their sets.

 

[wuffle]

there goes my chance of adding another rack of 25s

 

[jpietrella]

We still heeerrrrrre!!

 

[jpietrella]

I made the mistake of telling my wife how much people are offering for a rack of PCA $5’s She said I should sell mine.

I laughed, hard . She looked angry at me

I hoping to get the chips in the divorce

Quick bump check to see if @Rhodeman77 is divorced yet and whether or not his fivers are available in some sort of settlement.

I sold 2 other sets instead. My mixed THC and Casino Cancun sets took the hit for the team!

 

[jpietrella]

Paint me like one of your wet, leaded, shaped-inlay fivers, Jack.

 

[jpietrella]

Can't splash enough pots without another rack of these folks.
