Everyone’s opinion is different and it depends on what you’re looking for. There are options from .10 a chip plastic crap to .sets worth $30k or more.
If you want to see high end sets, check this thread out. @Windwalker had amassed most of the ultimate, unobtainable sets. It’s only 348 pages to read. Lol

@Seeking Alpha Social Club just posted an epic TRK Deadwood set. Awesome
@Lil Tuna has an awesome TRK set.
Many people will relabel chips to customize them. Some like real casino chips. Many are chip snobs and many are practical. Many great sets out there. So, are you looking for high end, take a second mortgage out chip set, a cheap set, or a really nice middle of the road set around $2-$3 a chip?

My desire sets are out of my price range. If money isn't an issue, I'd go with Royal Princess Casino or Sunset Beach sets.
Get samples! As each new discovery you make, your taste and opinion change. It's a fun venture to explore the options from the bottom to the top. The more you experience, the more refined your wants will be.
There are more areas too discover too! Table mats, tables, dice, cards, cut cards, gassers, etc. There's vast knowledge in this forum!
Happy Venturing!

Thanks.. RPC set does look nice.. those are going for a pretty penny aswell..
Barf. I would not even play in a game using that set -- horrible design, especially in low light.
OP: See how radically opinions differ?

Recen Chiproom sale of the Indiana Grands have moved close to the top of my list
Mostly secondary for the tourney set, not many of the secondary $1ks exist so I have them mixed together with Primaries. The $5k and $25k are both primaries. The price tag is definitely on the higher end for chip sets... but I love this one more every single time I see it! I dream of it one day being playable with 50k starting stacks and level 100/100 first level.
The cash set is all primary
Unfortunately there were no fracs (less than $1) so we plan torelabel the Blues to quarters and yellows to nickles.
The "best chips" are very difficult to find in sets these days but still possible with a large budget and patience. Leaded THC Paulsons, leaded Scrown TRKs, and some of the top end BCCs are what most consider the "best" but most consider them "unobtanium" with so many new members finding the hobby in the last couple of years.

Any custom CPC. Most old school leaded Paulson THCs.
I love seeing other people's custom sets.

I think for the price, and if you can find them, secondary HSI's are AWESOME!! My peeps like that set as much or more than any other I have.
CDI98 FTW!

If you came to my home, and set your eyes on some of my sets…
One stands out..it’s clear where my heart lies…
I love all my children, but these JACK Detroits make me bonkers. If I see any for sale, I still lose my shit.

That cash set looks awesome l..
Nice setup you got there..how long did it take you to put that set together?
Nice… that’s a pretty big cash set you got going..
Haven’t seen those before..how do you like them?
Haven’t really seen or feel any of the CPC that I can recollected, but Paulson are fire…
BCC sets?? Sorry still new haven’t learned all the terminology for these sets etc..

I am still adding pieces to the Jack set. I acquired Snappers back in October, so been nearly 4 years. Lmao! I recently lost an auction for more melons, so I’m still hunting. Not sure when I’ll ever stop myself. It’s a disease at this point.
BCC is an acronym for Blue Chip Company. I don’t know much more than that, except for they had their own sort of formula for making compression clay chips. That’s probably a really bastardized explanation since I’m a dummie with this, but the chips are amazing, different, but on cloud 9 as far as how cool they are.
I’ve got a BCC “The Capital Room” cash set. It’s a small piece, but I love em! Will NEVER sell these bad boys! They are on the famous MGK mold (medium Greek key)
Let’s not mislead the new guy. A 700 chip set is not “a small piece.” It’s actually an indulgent size, since most PCFers, if forced to be honest, would agree that a 600 chip set is plenty for a single cash table for most typical home games.
These 1,000 - 2,000 piece sets that people like to show off here - a lot of wonderful things can be said about them, but they’re excessive.

I can’t argue that I haven’t lost sight of some sort of objective, during my time here.
You have got me there!
Some of us, it seems, become acclimatized to excessive greed around here!

Yepp, there is one of those best ones alright. I’ve got a few sets myself but I wouldn’t mind making room for that one as well
Top left is CPC though
Aw, I didn’t mean to imply greed at all. People love chips - they should collect big sets if they like. But I’ve only ever hosted 8-max games, and I have a bad habit of going after expensive chips, so my sets tend to be smaller. And in the while that I’ve been here, there’s always been a part of me that felt like my 500-700 chip sets just looked silly small when I posted them. I think the first set I ever posted was a mixed set with a rack of quarters, two racks of ones, a rack of fives and a barrel of twenties. Those 420ish chips were plenty for my small .25/.50 game. And I remember being told “that’s not a set,” because it was so small. So I’m just trying to normalize normal a bit around here.

Many great sets out there. Many of the most sought after are pretty much impossible to find (unless with unlimited cash, maybe), but still plenty of great high end options around. I feel lucky to have been able to build an awesome set of shaped inlayed, cali coloured, leaded (or partly) casino chips just recently through thechiproom. New favourite for sure.
Also become very fond of the Indiana Grand cash and my mock PCAs:
Loads of awesome sets out there, so enjoy looking through the various pron threads and media galleries around here for inspiration!

I like to build my own sets and relabel them. It’s exciting to hunt for the perfect chips to make a set work. I like the hunt more than actually finishing sets. I only play poker like once or twice a year. Lol
I love the HHR mold and now that i can add on to the Trinidad &Tobago inlay
I've expanded
Agree that super large cash sets don't nake a lot of sense (how manu can you get on the table, well unless its limit) but large tournament sets make sense
.As for number of sets, it's constantly said how RHC chips wear faster, so I have a tendancy to grab a cash set whenever cool RHC sets come up as I feel like I have another 40+ years of home games ahead of me. Plan for the future!
This is beautiful!
I "only" have a handful of sets but by far the favorite set I own are the RPC. They look good in pictures & amazing in real life.
Can't wait until Thursday when I get to use them again...
