Orange chips show the least wear, horizon blue chips show some wear. Dark Green chips are 48 Starburst, and 54 Starburst overstamped on Horseshoe and Diamond.

I am only selling two racks of the Orange right now. I found some overstamped chips mixed in, so I want to be sure that I am only selling the non-overstamped chips at this time.

Color names are from the labels on the boxes. I do not have any chips to compare these with.

KEM wooden card caddy c1936 - This was a limited edition KEM Gift Box for the 1936 holidays (see ad pic). Great place to house your KEM bridge sized cards.

Happy to post more pics if you need them.

Prices:

2 Orange - $225 per rack
2 Horizon Blue - $250 per rack
1 Dark Green (102 chips - 48 Starburst, 54 Starburst overstamped) - $150
KEM Gift box - $50

Shipping included, discounts for purchase of more than one item. Well-packed and quickly shipped.

I'll take the orange ones (if they're sill available and you take paypal). Pm to follow.
 
Waiting to hear back from another buyer who expressed interest. You are first in line if he falls through.
 
ok. noob question here. What's with the starburst? I know they mark faces of live chips to make them obsolete. But why just regular solids? They seem to be stamped just for the hell of it. who puts the stamp on? paulson? and why? just because it looks cool?

My understanding is that the starburst is just a cancellation stamp that we chippers have attached meaning to.

Guess: They probably did it for security reasons for the home market - something a would-be counterfeiter would have to deal with?

VIVA LA STARBURST! GLWS @chuqii I may be back for a purchase to add to my rainbow! :ninja:

Yes. a rack of chips will fit in the KEM box (actually 105 will fit), but then the lid won't fit because of the card holders. Also, here's another pic of the blues.

Chips look too dark in the above picture. here is one in better light (though they are still brighter than this)
 
Bump. Dark Greens and Horizon Blues still available. I can break up the Dark Greens since there are 48 solid starburst and 54 overstamped starburst.
 
Final bump. PRICE DROPS

Price drop on Horizon Blues to $200 per rack from $250.
Dark Green price drop to $100 for the mixed rack.
