I've bought samples of both in brpropoker, they are coming. I'll say somethimg in a few days.

I'm in Spain and it's almost impossible to buy these chips here

i was thinking about buying samples but the shipping costs more than the samples themselves so its really hard.

Yes, it's expensive, $18 shipping. I've bought samples of tikis, dia de los muertos, Valentinos and Valentinos High Roller. 51 € in total. I think it's important to be sure if you like the chips. In addition, maybe I finally do some semi-custom chips base in Valentinos High Roller.

I've done some simulations, and shipping 300 chips cost $75, plus chips.

yeah i'm hoping i could buy some chips on this forum but if not i'd just have to save up a bit more to buy it from the site.

I have zero knowledge on the mid range chips...never owned any besides samples to give away to new EU members.
Some members to know what these are (1 Tiki, 1 WPS (both from Gene) & 1 Ascona...rest a blank for me

Please fill in if you have any experience with these chips...

Both of which are nice chips. I think the DDLM's are more fun though. They're spooky but not overly gory or anything like that, and they come in more colors and designs. The Tiki Kings are cartoony, if you have kids around you may want them. I created a custom cash set with them and I love the DDLM's, so that's my recommendation.

To me the best looking chips are:

1. Dia De Los Muertos (the only thing I don't like is the orange is slightly lighter than Gene's other products)
2. Wicked Spades (actually a great chip with a heavy metal motif)
3. Coop (the designs are snazzy)
4. Golden Dragon (this concept is neat)
5. Desert Sands
6. Nevada Jack Saloon
7. Black Betty
8. Tiki Kings
9. Nevada Jack Skulls (Not a fan of the overly macabre skull design)
10. all the others, except:
Last: Lucky Dragon: I don't know why. I love Asian motifs but this one just looks amateurish compared to the other designs.

Shippingtime was 6 Weeks and I had to pay some 60 EUR Customs-Duty in Germany.

My Semi-Custom-Design was to remove totally the Currency from the Denominations – plain Numbers only.

The ones with cubes on them are samples from the personal custom set of PCF member @sat guru , you can read more about them here. They're ceramics made by Game On Chip Company (GOCC) which is mostly out of business now. Beautiful chips; I love the design (although it's not to everyone's tastes, mind you) and the GOCC ceramics feel really nice.

The chip with the King Tut picture is a Spirit Mold, which is an older China Clay line that's not made any more. You can find them with labels for "Pyramids Casino" (an Egypt theme, looks pretty nice, the King Tut shown here is just one of several designs; each denom has a different label) or for "Casino da Vinci" which is a James Bond Casino de Isthmus look-alike. You can also get them in blanks; a fair number of PCF members have put their own custom labels on them (including me!). Search on "Spirit Mold" to learn more. They're mostly out of stock everywhere, but Chips and Games has recently gotten a small supply of them back in stock: see here.

The Pioneer Club Commemorative and the Desert Palms are fairly similar in construction and feel, and are similar to a line known as NexGen Pro. Not to be confused with the earlier line of NexGen 8000 chips, or the completely different Progen 80 chips. See here, here, and here.
