I have a question about the prices on the site. I have been looking for a set of chips and didn't want the really cheap plastic ones so I started looking on ebay. It seems you can find the same 500 chip sets for $175 where the pokersupplies.com site has what appears to be the same set for $275.
As I've never seem or felt these chips would there be any difference between them? Pics and descriptions seem to be identicle.
just remember with ebay there is exchange rates (most often), shipping (which is higher to canada usually), duties (and often gst/pst) when it crosses the border. those can really add up.
and it's usually good karma to support local businesses
I would love to support local business, but if they are the same chips the difference in price is huge. The ones on ebay come from Toronto and shipping is $17 or $14 depending on 300 or 500 chips
Most of the chips sold on E-bay are plastic with metal disk center, often called 11.5 gram clay chip, but they are plastic. If you want real clay chips be prepared to pay BIG $$$$.. over $700.00 US. I have over 1000 of the above mention chips, dice striped 11.5 gram, and love them. For the price, I highly recommend them. Check out CTIDEALS on e-bay I seen 1000 chip sold for $107.50. They are Canadian Company, drawback is that they charge US $$. But you will save on duty charge.
