I've got 1800 in the mail, but this is where I sit for today (no splashed pot shots, but if you see the table bowing, it may go ahead and splash the pot for me soon):
And these are the racks I had to empty to get them all lined up:

Yeah, I know... the shame. I'm planning to take on my first build soon.

That's an awesome collection! Especially for someone who just joined in February. Assuming you had a few prior to this site or did you go on a buying spree?

My recent purchase was the nps paulsons, and a couple barrels of jacks.

We have some giant collections here. Does anyone know who might have the largest of them all?

^ 14k chips is still impressive as hell, but I agree the tables and basement set up makes everyone envious!
Thank you all for your contribution to this thread. It will help me in my efforts to collect. I can hear myself already, "But honey, look at this picture. I practically have zero chips".

Not sure if it can be considered a horde, but here are my current sets (sorry, not the best pics...):
My short-to-mid term plans: Building a set around the Caminos, trying to use AS Snappers as PCA Quarters.
A barrel of Key Wests about to come in from @Thomacetti to make it an even 500.

A little over one year ago I was the proud owner of a set of dice chips, as well as some random Vegas chips. I felt the need to explore what other options were out there for chips, as I really wanted a set with denominations on them... initially, I thought a couple hundred dollars would be my maximum outlay. Based on my "chipping" experience, this seemed reasonable.
With the power of Google, I discovered the world of china clays and then @Hobbyphilic 's channel on YouTube, which inevitably led me here... to the rabbit hole.
The first set of chips that really caught my eye were the Paulson NPS series. I was primarily in the market for a tournament set, having never really played cash games outside a casino. They cost far more than I initially thought was reasonable, but I justified it, knowing that, while more expensive, this "one time" purchase would bring me joy for years. After all, I'd had my dice chips since the name "Moneymaker" had become a household name amongst poker players. So, I swallowed the red pill and decided to stay in Wonderland this one time.
Somehow along the way, I ended up convincing myself that, if I was going to have the NPS tournament set, then it was only logical to obtain the matching cash chips. A good excuse to start/find a local cash game I further rationalized. Wonderland was nice, and the rabbit hole was getting deeper...
Flash forward one year. For the first time in a while, I actually have zero shipments enroute to me... a good time for an inventory! Suddenly "a couple hundred dollars" for chips seems like an eternity ago. I will say this though... I kind of like this Wonderland place; I think I'll stay a while longer.

Awesome chips!!!
From dice to BTP in a year! Very well done.
Oversized custom Paulsons with a circus theme! If there’s a nicer chipset out there, I sure haven’t seen it. Love everything about the BTP set and it’s a thrill and a privilege to be have been able to add them to my collection.
Not that anyone in my group (outside of one other guy) could tell. But I’m working on them!!
These are some awesome sets!

Not sure which is more impressive. Size of the collection... or that a folding table was able to hold it all.
