overlabel pls pls pls

I don’t get how some of you guys are so concerned with other people’s property on this site, esp chips that they paid for? And over label? These chips that I bought aren't seeing the community again so what’s it matter to you?. I’ve been chip collecting for 22 years and I’m only 39, way before the moneymaker collectors, I sold poker chip sets in high school, I love chips as much as or more than you, I’m just passed the puppy love phase. The price policing and chip huggers need to chill on this site and stop telling people what to do, get a life.

Also, on the contrary, to ease your chip concerns, only 20 will be relabelled, I am subtle not stupid. If we are playing higher stakes, we are going to a casino to take other people’s money not each others.

Just started cleaning. Taking my time.

 

[JeepologyOffroad]

[Marius L]

Yeah agree, those look really good!

 

[Josh Kifer]

Soon I'll be able to show the entire set... Soon.... So excited.

 

[Gorbash]

I'm shocked that's not @Gorbash s plan

The $4 chips aren't leaded!

 

[Josh Kifer]

Such a prude.

 

[Gorbash]

Such a prude.

Although at $3.99/chip during the Black Friday sale I may just have to scoop these up for future use

FICKLE.

Wait... These aren't leaded? Is that confirmed? Anyone have an actual weight for a stack of them?

Yeah, I had a couple of barrels that I weighed before sending them off for murder and the weight was in the mid 8's per chip (I forget the exact weight)

Fooking @Gorbash man....

 

[Johnblue]

my set is getting a bump pretty soon. =)

 

[Josh Kifer]

Four racks of the worst of the worst after me and Danny did our thang. Holy hell, they turned out SO well.

Thanks guys. I guess I missed that because I wasn't going to buy them at $8 a chip. That might also have something to do with why they didn't sell out...

Quick and messy mobile photos.

I think I'm very close to finishing this set. Would prefer more $5s, but getting slightly annoyed by the requirement to match condition.
Just need to add a barrel of relabeled $500/$1ks.

All hex $2
All lighter, small inlay $5.
Half of $25s and $5s been oiled.

Spoiler: Extras and random pics

 

[Marius L]

Found a reasonably sharp $5. Easily the best out of my 700x $5s. Will be a nice little keeper for a small sample set.

 

[AfterTheFact]

It cost me my $10’s, but I believe this lineup will work much better.

God damn that is a nice set of chips.

 

[Johnblue]

Things are heating up for me here, first time I’ve unwrapped the 2s I’ve been amassing for the limit set.
Was hoping to get to 900, but 760 gets the job done for now!
What are some $20 -$50 or $100 replacement chips would work with that limit set? Any suggestions appreciated.

$25s are a no-go non multiple of 2.

I’ve gone through so many changes in plans with this worn down set, was gonna mill, was gonna use the pinks, almost scrapped the 1’s and 5s but I think I like it like this, as-is, worn down stamps, almost like Paulson blanks. aaaand a big limit set!

If anyone has a few mercy barrels of the 20s they will end up with these 2s good home I promise!

Most need cleaned still.

Gotta track down a few more oranges.

Scrubbing time!

I’m very pumped up now that I’ve seen all the twos laid out!

[PocketAces]

Moar to come

 

[Marius L]

Almost complete. At least close to it. Heres the keepers of all matching barrel heights (except hundos), and all small inlay $5s (and hex $2s)

Admittedly I'm missing another few barrels of $2s for full racks like this.

And heres most of my Lake Elsinores in one pic (unsorted for condition) honestly I might keep some of the other fives after all since this huge set is pretty killer!

(If anyone wanna trade my 4 racks of older fives for 3 racks of the newer, please let me know.)

Edit to add: need to do some more oiling!
