Because I could
I would flip a table. Seriously.
Im so confused but i like it lol
If anyone bet the $88 chip on me during a hand, I'm calling with 88 $1s.
Tina doesn't mess about when it comes to UK shipping, does she?! Which racks are those, as they look to be the perfect fit?From Hong Kong to the UK in 2 days - it was apparently still there yesterday morning

Not part of the group buy as I joined too late for that. Coincidently, I seem to have found the same reseller on Alibaba for my first cheap micro stakes cash set.

Now I've just got to wait for the HSI tourney set to work its way through Her Majesty's Revenue and Customs (along with a bill)...

I’m not sure, but I think this proves my point

Not sure where to post these, but since it's a culmination of multiple mail days, I guess it fits. Thanks @justincarothers @Gear @Josh Kifer @uclaure @WhiteMamba1646

Why the $1 and the $5? Weirdo!

When I'm done, I'll have 95 irregular values, it looks like he has 50, so I wouldn't quite say mic dropped yet, although I would love to see a $27 and an $88 chip in use.
Do people buy in for $27 and $88 ?

I guess I should explain a little bit of history on this one. ABC had a sale back in March and I figured okay, I'll buy a set of the DDLM's, I tried to mirror the GPI Monaco set as well as I could, with one exception. I changed the orange chip from $10 to $13.13 because I figured for Halloween, it would add effect. I dropped the 13 cents because I thought "no one's going to want to carry that kind of change around" and it took off in popularity. It seems so obvious, Also, tbh, with a $25 chip, a $13 isn't that hard to make change for (two orange = one green ($25) plus one blue ($1))
I also got compliments for the black bounty chip and the white show 'em chip. The black because it's the grim reaper and what cool effect that is, and the white one because the guy with the sombrero and oversized mustache looks like a very creepy guy or a pervert, and him saying "Show 'em" is just something you can't unsee. Those are now 47mm chips after this idea was imposed:
It was then recommended I add another chip, a $7 chip. so I went with that and a $64 chip to bridge the gap between $25 and $100. (TBH, I think the 7's and the 64's are more for show but it's nice to see they're available)
Now all these people are starting to think it would be cool to put obscure amounts on chips. I love it, tbh, but anything over $25ish I can't see used at all in regular play.
I will say I think things are going to get more obscure before we return to common sense but I don't mind at all. What's life without a little bit of whimsicality?

I am a little puzzled about you going with the 39s, though. 43's are so fun to use especially with fun dollar amounts like that.
Anyways, when I'm done my set will be:
140 -- 5c (pink)
100 -- 25c (yellow)
100 -- 50c (purple, I know I shouldn't have mixed the two but tbh, the wedding skeletons are too beautiful to pass up)
180 -- $1 (blue)
100 -- $5 (red)
40 -- $7 (white, also says "7 de la suerte" on them)
35 -- $13 (orange)
25 -- $25 (green)
20 -- $64 (black)
12 -- $100 brown plaques.
I'll also have 47mm's for special chips:
Black -- bounty
White -- show em
Purple -- Buena Suerte (bad beat jackpot)
Pink -- Bonus
My poker nights will be electric!

OMG. THAT IS THE BEST THING I HAVE EVER SEEN.
Got only halfway through, maybe a third through the packages accumulated during my unexpectedly long time in Vegas. Rest tomorrow.

Evidently not! They're not a perfect fit, but they are the best I've found around Flea-bay and Amazon. They appear to be 67.7mm (fit CPC perfectly) and I have a 25mm x 1mm nylon washer inserted on the outside barrels to stop things wobbling.
I'm still on the search for 66.7mm racks in the EU...

Call me crazy, but I love the 5000 the most out of that set (100 is a runner up). Something about the gray with the brown spots makes it a near perfect chip
