[detroitdad]

Thanks for sharing. Great collection

 

[lematt82]

Amazing chips!!

 

[Rhodeman77]

Awesome sets, but you obviously know that already!!!

Great mix of the major manufacturers that we all covet. Thanks for sharing and looking forward to seeing more pics!!!

 

[Jambine]

Great collection

 

[pedrofisk]

Wow! Just wow.

Sweet sets there!

But the concept of "keeper sets" needs to be banned from PCF, especially from folks like you and @liftapint -- we all know better. :

 

[liftapint]

Yes, I have been meaning to rename my thread to "Liftapints rent-a-sets" (except for my Nevada Lodge, those are never going anywhere, ever.

 

[Psypher1000]

those are never going anywhere, ever.

You'll never see me creating one of these threads

 

[liftapint]

OK, I am already in the process of downsizing the set. But I don't NEED 1600 $1s!!! Let's just say, that will be he last set out the door.

Fair?

I could see myself selling the Riverboats one day, so I'll take those down. I do really like them. But I don't have any plans to sell them yet. That could change though if I found another tourney set I liked more. If so, I will update the OP. The other sets... ya, not going anywhere!

My least likely to ever sell list (disregarding my extras which are not counted in the above quantities), in order of 'no way in hell' to 'not likely' would be as follows:

1. The Grove CICs
2. Nevada Lodge TRKs
3. The Wynns
4. KGB Rounders Tourney Set
5. Pick Hobson's
6. Snapper Limit Set
7. Cali Rounders
8. The "Blue" Set

I also have 2 more sets in the works that I don't know yet where they will fall on the list.

1. Lucky Buddha Club
2. Mystery set #2 WOOHOO!!! I got them! Adding in the Winner's Club set!

I could see myself selling the Riverboats one day. But I don't have any plans to. At least not for now. That could change though if I found another tourney set I liked more. If so, I would update the OP. The other sets... ya, not going anywhere!

Maybe not the whole set but someday you'll realize that you don't need that rack of delicious Pick Hobsons fracs.

 

[Kain8]

Man, I bet a $2.50 / $5.00 is just insane with all those Horseshoe snappers!!

 

[RainmanTrail]

Hahahahahaha. You'll have to ask my wife in approximately 45 years, as I'm not sure what she's planning to do with them then. She might want to keep them though... (y) :thumbsup:

 

[pltrgyst]

....Nevada Lodge, those are never going anywhere, ever.

The world-wide titters might give those hurricane-inducing butterflies a run for their money...

 

[RainmanTrail]

I updated the OP to include premature pics of my Yosemite Inn set. I'll need to finish my inlay project before proper pr0n can be posted, but I do have an original sample set pic up as well as my current proposed 500pc set with the fracs-to-be and $1s-to-be... Stay tuned for the finished product.

Also added in @DrJohn's pic of The Winner's Club chips which I just won at auction. They will most likely be replacing my Riverboat set.

 

[colter ripton]

I really love the blue set.....beautiful mix

 

[kmccormick100]

It would be if we ever get a limit game going haha

Man, I bet a $2.50 / $5.00 is just insane with all those Horseshoe snappers!!

 

[RainmanTrail]

I've updated the OP with pics of my most recent acquisition - The Winner's Club chips!!! These things are insane! The T50,000 barrels are like soda cans. They almost as wide as bridge size cards

 

[kmccormick100]

* The Winner Club

But how do they shuffle ?

Quite nicely

 

[ryan3]

I'm bumping this thread simply to say how amazing those sets are!

Those .50 Pick Hobson chips are so nice! Wish I could find some of those!

 

[RainmanTrail]
