Vegas set is a pipe dream; just not happening. Almost all of those chips met the killer jaws of death after retirement.
Bunch of mint St Jo chips are out there, but very hard to pry out of owners' hands, and pretty pricey if you can.
I don't recall any Terribles tourney chips being made available from either non-Vegas casino; just cash chips (primary and secondary sets) plus some roulette chips. @Tommy would know for sure.
I got some terribles roulettes, but I don't remember general tourney chips being released, at least when that sale occurred.
It's going to be difficult to find a big set from one seller. You may get lucky but your best bet is to try to piece together a set rack-by-rack.
If you like a mixed set then that would make it easier. I you are willing to mix THC and RHC molds then that
would also make it easier.

All other things being equal, most chip nerds prefer THC. It is the older mold and has a better feel.

Hey Mike, why don't you share with him your journey of putting a Terribles set together. How long did it take?
No, @slisk250 = mike. He pieced together an epic Terribles set a few years ago, long after the initial ChipRoom sales.

Hey Mike, why don't you share with him your journey of putting a Terribles set together. How long did it take?
It took about 1 year and lots of money to just buy up every Terrible chip I could find. I'm more interested in customs now so have been unloading the primaries since Spring when I get a chance. Great chips but with what I have, these would never get played.
Oh man sorry!Are you interested in selling?
