  • cgraham86 on CT also does hot stamping. He has some old school stamps too. Sands, Dunes, The Mint etc.
  • There's a surprising lack of pron here......
  • just got mine, pics soon!
  • Just finished sorting my BCC's, pics up in the next day or two. I honestly don't know what I'm doing with the blanks yet, especially since I don't really have enough of any one colour to really make a set.

    Out of a total of 767 chips
    419 are blank in 16 different colours.
    237 are stamped "ChipRoom" in 20 different colours
    50 Blank spotted in 5 different colours
    33 5000 Tournament stamped spotted, 19 white and 14 grey, and man these look sharp
    have another 6 purple 500 stamped and 2 black 100, and 20 blank spotted.

    It was a real grab bag of chips really. Not quite sure how much of a set I can put together yet, may have to do some serious trading in ChipTalk.

    The PCA's I'm not going to post pics of until I have had a chance to clean them up a bit, do some before and after shots. The stack of HRH guitars are HOT too, not sure what I"m going to do with them now.

    Still waiting on
    100 PCA's 100 owed by ChipRoom, on route
    100 PCA's 100 from Moose,hopefully he gets them soon
    1 8x8x8 grab box of chips, which was not a great bargain after shipping costs, avoid this one in the future
    2 bird cages ordered on line to house everything in
    100 Aztar $.50 chips

    My Black Friday has only JUST begun!

    Moose, have I thanked you yet for getting me into this aspect of the game??
  • JDA...those PCA's look VERY nice! Did you have to clean them up much at all?

    Only one small package today and one of the chips was wrong. Anyone want to buy a Caesars Windsor chip?

    Dude they are mint. You might have to blow off some factory dust maybe.

    This pic alone makes me wonder why people don't give more love to the PCA secondary $1s. Look at the gold Fitz's and the gold spots in the $1s. Heaven.

  • Yeah, those Fitzi quarters really do go well with the PCA $1.00 secondary. Makes me wish I had gone overboard and gotten them instead. Doubt I could have gotten the quantities I wanted though. Oh well, there's always next year to save for . . .

    GREAT pics of some very sweet chips.


    . . . and KNOCK IT OFF, moose !!! LOL I love that PCA $1.00 chip. You are really starting to tempt me into some sort of HU set based around that chip. STOP IT.

    TY str8! Those pics are of them straight out of the box, I haven't done anything to them yet.
  • Sorting is done now. Not really enough of any to make a full set with, but there are some I REALLY like

    Out of the box

    237 ChipRoom Hotstamped in 20 different colours

    419 Blanks in 16 different colours

    Small selection of Spotted

    These 5000 stamped spotted are VERY NICE! My fav out of the entire box
    DesertPalmBCC023.jpg

    All in all, not a bad buy. A total of about 770 chips for $230US, so about $.30 each. I want to fill up a blank set and then get them custom hotstamped, but right now there's too much variety in that group. I will trade/sell and put something together, already got chippers asking for a few of them so I don't imagine I will be stuck.

    I do think though that THIS single purchase will keep me chip hunting for quite some time.
  • Nice pron, boys. I like how the .25c Fitizys and $1 PCAs look together. Beauty!

    Update on our order:

    2010/12/04 01:45 KITCHENER Item processed at postal facility

    YES!
  • OK, so I tracked both of the packages for Mooses & my order. Package #1 is still being reviewed by CC in Mississauga, and #2 is in Kitchener.

    Clearly my chips are in package #1 :)
  • I'm waiting for good news, Moose!

    Johnnie, don't you know a watched pot never boils. Relax, they should be here sometime in January.>:D
  • Okay, I am weak. Also, I want that PCA $1.00 Secondary chip. With that in mind, I have decided I need a heads-up cash set, so what do you think of this set-up:

    20 x $0.50 PCA secondaries
    65 x $1.00 PCA secondaries
    15 x $5.00 PCA secondaries

    Comments?

    Not bad Milo, but maybe a few more $5 ones. BTW...I have some extra primaries I can sell you if you want to go that route, I'll even clean them for you.

    Frankly though, for a headsup match, I like the roulettes Darryl brought over the other night. A small set of those would look very nice.
  • Appreciate the offer AJ. Actually, I like the PCA secondaries better, except for the hundo chip. Maybe change it to look like this:
    10 x .50s
    70 x 1.00s
    20 x 5.00s

    That look better?

    A heads up bank of $175? Better pick something divisible by 2 and ending in a nice round number like a bank of $80, $100, $120, $150

    Can't shower until the package comes.

    That is what I was thinking with my original #s. Thanks, moose, I will go with the $150.00 I had originally had in mind. :)

    What? Do want me to stink until Christmas?
  • No, but he would get a laugh out of Facebook pix of your new room in the garage.

  • Chips for me. Not for you.
  • Just ordered my first Paulson chips. Anybody want to bet I get mine before Johnnie?

    haha....that's how I roll. Some pron might hold me over.....hint hint.
  • See my "Lottery" thread for more Fitz quarters.

    If you're interested, that is . . .
  • 1100ish so far. At least 3 more packages to come. Plus I'm out of racks again.

  • Are those the PCA secondary Dollars on the left? Oh Gawd, I need an intervention.

    Just to prove it, they're all PCA secondaries, aren't they?



    Lordy, help me Jesus . . .




    I think I'm keeping the Fitzies if I win the lotto.
