I play a weekly bar game (3 tables), and I normally supply the chips (Currently bringing a set of Milanos). The crew loves the chips (compared to the dice chips they were using). However, I will be taking a new job which will limit my ability to play this game and bring chips. A few weeks ago I asked the crew if they wanted me to arrange the purchase of a set of Milanos FOR the game, and everyone agreed to take $5 from each buyin for a few weeks to make this happen. When I was pricing this out, I was seeing Milanos (1000 chip sets) for around $380+ $50 shipping - or $420 total). This was our target money raising goal. We're nearly there, but now I'm seeing the one vendor I was looking at (one I've used a few times before) has shortages in some of the chips (100's and 5k's), so I can't order the set I intended. And they're not returning my emails. I'm stuck holding a bunch of money for chips, and now the other vendors are a lot pricier (probably $550+ for the same chip sets).
Anyone have thoughts or recommendations on mid-level chips in the $.40/chip price range? I haven't shopped china clays in a while, and wanted to do my due diligence and see options (before dropping $.60/chip for Milanos).
Thanks
