Alright, TenPercenter.

1) Your chips are pretty.

2) Would you stop pimping you chips?

Welcome aboard tenpercenter. I've seen you around the various forums. Anyone interested in his egyptians style chips? PM him and I'm sure he'll give you the link. They are works of art. And I believe he's one of the first private orders to have his chip mass produced.

Just as an example. His $1000 chip is octagon shaped. And his $5000 chip is a european plaque style. Very classy set indeed.

TYVM. Though, you didn't have to edit the post. I wanted them up since they're pretty chips. I just wanted you to stop pimping them.

I thought by "pimping" you meant "showing them off." If you thought I was trying to sell them or something, I don't sell them. A retail site that helped me with the group buy sells them exclusively.

If you're asking, you probably are new to all this poker chips stuff (if not, please don't take offense).

Go straight to Ebay and buy the cheapest set you need.

I'd recommend a 650 "dice" set. It'll run you $55 or so and works great for almost all home games up to 20 players. In 6 months, If you don't like em or your home game fizzles, you won't have spent $500 on a top of the line set.

Very solid advice. Why waste all that money on a great set just to find out you'll never use it. Or you *gasp* hate to play live games. There is one place, I forget who, that has a trade in policy when you upgrade with them. Let me look around for it.
