I purchased chips from PGI back in 2010 timeframe, has anybody else seen this happen to these chips?
I had a few chip break like this over the years but only 5-10 total over a 4-5 year period. I used them in a monthly game and they showed no other real signs of wear, many were never used because I bought more chips then I really needed. Since they hadn't been used in 3+ years I recently sold them and in the first couple of games the new owner has reported 20+ chips have broke apart to the point they had to be taken off the table. He reported this is happening to the black chips the most, however there are larger number of them so maybe it is just a numbers thing.
I feel really bad, I had no idea these chips would start to fall apart. I would not have sold them if I knew they would do this and I have given a refund. I know I have seen post about possible flaking but not actually falling apart. Any idea why this is happening?
