Hey Guys
Thinking about starting a small hobby business helping fellow poker players and chip collectors to safely and efficiently ship poker chips. This is just an idea at the moment so really curious for feedback and interest.
Due to my OCD I started thinking about how I would ship a 1000 piece set neatly that I sold recently. This got me to thinking how even more important this would be when shipping higher value sets.
I was thinking about custom corrugated racks with or without lids. Interior wall cushioning and master shippers that keep everything secure. I addition I thought about corrugate lids for the racks also.
In order to ensure perfect fitment I would need to ensure various size differences are taken into account such as 39mm vs 43mm, ceramics vs clay etc etc.
Some challenges arise such as shipping as the corrugated would need to ship flat and be assembled by the purchaser. It is possible to ship everything built but that may or may not affect shipping rates. Again this is still just an idea to gauge interest.
I recently ordered a set of tiki kings from BrPro and I’m interested to see how they package their products.
This could be something for forum members and also for some of the bigger names producing chips and shipping them to customers around the world.
Thoughts and opinions welcome!
