accepting completely "unreasonable" offers...lol

To be honest I was at one point going to sell them to buy a grail chip someone was going to let go.... but alas they changed their mind. The singles market has really dried up for some strange reason...

Surely you jest--T. changed his mind on the hundo?

 

[leo822]

No...not Terry's China hundo...A Prell $100 and $500...the tri-color $500 which is just the sickest pie ever made.

Sell "THEM" to buy "A" chip? that must have been some grail chip!

OK, you posted before i posted my question.

 

[leo822]

Well maybe not the sickest pie made because of the China Club $100 and $25. But it is up there.

Those were good to me last month .

Not really much of a new post, just the TRK NL set is growing.

Not sure which to use for a quarter. Leaningtowards the Fuscia with a NL mill and label.

I added 2 more barrels of $100. And another rack of $1s. Here is the set for a 1/1 game, skip using the $25s or $20s. (I hate you all .. )

Here with the fuscia, going to be milled and labeled for quarters. I like the colors with this set.

Heres with the latest addition of yellow roulettes. Could relabel or just clean and use as is.

 

[inca911]

Fuscia > Yellow

 

[WedgeRock]

Disagree. Use the yellows as is. No mill, no relabel.

 

[detroitdad]

finally added some fracs.

Does that mean your set is fractured?
Keep me in mind if the LA's ever need a new home

You need to send those to Chris and have some nice retro looking labels put on those.

Hey Chippy, those frac stacks look taller than the others. Wouldn't bother me a bit (used to). Just pointing it out so new chippers can see that varying stack heights is common regardless of manufacturer and shouldn't be considered a defect or issue. Chip wear of the yellow chips next to them may also contribute to height differences.

Great looking set!

 

[WedgeRock]

I think it's just that the $1's are worn... $1 stack looks slightly shorter than the fivers too...

Beat me to it and good point.

Nice set Chippy!

 

[Chippy McChiperson]

Yeah the ones definitely stack way shorter than the other denoms

Great to see those salmon chips put to excellent use. I always knew they would make a great Mapes frac. I just couldn't manage getting the other Mapes chips together, lol. Well done!

 

[Chippy McChiperson]

Thanks, they do mesh very well with the rest of the denoms

Just picked up this little vintage set.

Tried cleaning them and noticed the red chips color bled really bad. They were bleeding so bad I just had to stop. Didn't want to do any damage. Was only using ultra dawn and room temp water...a bit on the cold side...scrubbing them with my thumb only. The whites and blues seemed to clean up with little to no issue. Anyone have any tips or tricks cleaning these? I may just end up leaving them alone.

Looks like LMK stands for Leonard Kaye. You can barely see remnants of his name on the case. Anyone know if the case was originally sold at the TRK store?

Thanks & enjoy!

Finally completed my NL set

The “Let Me Know” set!

The “Let Me Know” set!

Was thinking the same thing!

Hey Goph,
How did you go about cleaning the China Clubs? Ultrasonic?

 

[gopherblue]

Hey Goph,

Yes, with TSP. I’d try a test run on one chip first, and do it for as short a time as possible.
