Little add on for the WTHC set. Thanks @Cord

A bit tardy sharing my Tina custom set that's been years in the making -- The 2nd Ave Card Club!

Basically a subset of my favorite chips of all time:
  • $0.25 - @Chippy McChiperson's BTP snapper
  • $1 - @krk08795 / @JeepologyOffroad 's TP 25K
  • $5 - inspired by lots of butterscotch $5s
  • $25 - inspired by Tropicana $25
  • $100 - mashup of President Biloxi $100 and @Tommy's Broken Bell $100
  • $500 - MGM Grand Reno $500
Special thanks to @justincarothers for making the entire process so seamless, @QuietMaple for building the Chipmatic Studio, and @mattross1313 for generating color matched proofs and overall QC/finishing touches for my chip design.

This actually started out as a prospective CPC set, but changed my mind and went Tina for a number of reasons: cost, color/spot options, and much faster delivery time (much less accounting for recent CPC manufacturing uncertainty).

And though CPC's are clay and handmade, they are quite light, and for me, pale in comparison to Paulson handfeel and sound. I was pleasantly surprised by the Tina's in the handfeel/weight department, though they also are kind of high-pitched when splashed.

Anyhow, these chips are not CPCs (much less Paulsons) -- the colors are not as saturated, they're not as stackable, etc. But for my games/players and the price, the value is fantastic. I'm SO glad I pulled the trigger on these.

This was a first, I guess the seller really liked ice cream? This was the entirety of the 'padding' and the chips were in sandwich bags, but the seller did stack them at least. Definitely better than the other eBay purchase I recently got that was almost a full rack dumped into a 1gal Ziploc bag, set in a decent sized box, could hear and feel those ones shifting as soon as picked the box up..
