Why are chips sold in increments of 25? (1 Viewer)

[PooperJeans]

Not sure if this is a dumb question because i'm new but does anyone know why chips are so commonly sold in increments or minimums of 25, i understand the need for a minimum but it would make more sense to me to have it be 20 as that's the standard size that fits in a chip rack. Not much I can really do about it but was wondering if anyone knew the reasoning for this.

What chips are you referring to?

 

[Okku]

That’s the China way of manufacturing and producing chips. Not sure why they do it that way but that’s the way they’re generally done

Standard packages of hot dogs and hot dog buns don't match, either.

And atleast 4 rolls of chips equals one rack!

You have to buy 5 packs of dogs and 4 packs of Buns for the math to equal out! Atleast the cheap chipping industry is better at math than Hotdogs! Lmao

Actually there is something you can do about it.

Buy moar chips and fill out dem racks.

Because cheap chip manufacturers are not poker enthusiasts.

It because the poker case is manufactured in row of 50s.

What IS standard over the pond, out of interest? Five hot dogs to four-bun packs?

I think it's 10 and 12. I shop in bulk at Costco and they do 14 and 16.

Because they hate chip collectors and take joy in our frustration at mismatched barrels in racks
