SOLD Pick Hobson / Overland TRK 620 chip set (1 Viewer)

[RainmanTrail]

I have decided to trim my Pick Hobson set in half. My group abuses chips, and I have decided to only put them in play for special occasions. Thus, I have a 620 chip set that I am offering for sale. These are some of the most epic chips ever made in my opinion. Pick Hobson owned both the Riverside Casino & The Overland (which is why the Pick Hobson $5s and the Overland $5s are the same chip with a different inlay design). Which is why I think the Overland $1s are the perfect chip for this set (also very rare and difficult to find chips). The yellow TRK spotted, inlayed fracs are some of the best chips ever made, and are extremely rare and difficult to find. These regularly fetch $15 to $20 each as singles on eBay.

Breakdown is as follows:

100 x 50¢ (half are mint/near mint, half very good/good)
200 x $1 (all are good/very good)
200 x $5 (mint)
100 x $25 (mint)
20 x $100 (mint - a few could use a very light cleaning if desired, but they're all minty)

Price is $2750 $2700 + shipping/insurance

I've been looking forward to wading into the VERY shallow end of the TRK pool in the near future. Now you want me to go head first into the deep end

The water's fine.

This is somewhere between the kiddie pool and the deep end. The deep end has Mapes and Nevada Lodges swimming in those waters

I have always wanted to use the Pick Hobson fracs with my New China $1's and Mapes $5's :

Can the $5 be relabeled to Milano nickels?

[Heavyball]

Yes, but you have to drill them first...

Yes, but you have to drill them first...

Ming!

He literally launched a handful of these all the way across the table after losing a pot! Then, he slammed them down on the felt in anger a few times when his gutshots didn't come in...

He's lucky I didn't shove a broomstick up his ass!

Fortunately, no damage was done.

For those wondering (a few people have asked), no I'm not selling off all my Pick Hobsons. I'm still keeping a nice playable set. I have quite a few of these. But I've also recently completed another TRK set (which I haven't posted pics of yet) that has surpassed the PH's as my #1 holy grail set

Here's a pic of my full set of Hobson's before I finished my 2nd rack of fracs and before I acquired the Overland $1s...

I have a player like this. Every time I try to protest the behavior I get the "Dude, they're just chips" speech. I kind of feel like getting upset makes me look like a douche so I grit my teeth and soldier on lol.

I use the Sahara CIC indestructible chips when I know he's coming.

Yep, same situation with my player. I think my Grove CICs may start seeing a lot more play!

Take a hammer to his car, and give him the "Dude, it's just a car" speech.

I can't stop coming back to look at these. I have such a weak spot for the small crowns. Beautiful set Travis, really nice. GLWS. I wish I had mountains of those fracs. Beautiful.

We usually just take his $$$ and call it a night

But I like your suggestion.

I think I have owned at least a portion of these specific chips in the past and confirm their AWESOMENESS GLWS....
