TOPPS POKER CHIPS

[geelongfan]

hey guys,
i really want to get some of these poker chips (Because they are only 9.99 a box)..

however, on ebay usa they are charging like 20usd for em, (when they only cost 9.99)..

is ther any place i could get em cheaper?
even 15 would be better..


they are really good i rekon, made of clay, so they are the same weight as the casino i heard..

great value for only 9.99

They are available at Target stores in the US. I just rang a friend from work and he is emailing a friend in the US to get him to get some. If you want, I could try to organise it as I wouldn't mind getting a box to have a look at.

Guys I just got an answer from Bruce at OCSC and he has access to 9 boxes of Topps Poker Chips - There are 16 packs per box, 5 chips per pack. (so 80 chips in a box) for $39 per box.

The ones on ebay appear to have only 20 chips in a box (these are the ones selling for $20).

He only has 9 boxes so if you are interested get in quickly.

Cheers
Graham

the ones on Ebay are retail (20 chips), so same as Cards......retail is not as good as hobby. People are buying them at Targert and Walmart for $10, and trying to sell them on Ebay for $20-30

The hobby boxes are 3.25lb in weight, so it starts to get pretty expensive to get them over.

3 boxes works out at $57 US for 3-5 day EMS shipping (its $52.10 for Airmail). So plus the boxes at $39 each you are looking at around $244 AUD for 3 boxes (or approx $81.33 each). Works out at just over $1 per chip - so there you have it
