My last bit of 50th-birthday-ebay-madness-splurge arrived yesterday.
500 poker chips in a sturdy aly case (with 4 dice and a couple of decks of cards)
Rather nice, 11.5 grammes, stars and diamonds round the perimiter.
150 white, 50 yellow, 100 red, 100 green, 50 blue, 50 black.
The quality of the edge spots is a bit lower than the ones my mate Stuart has, so maybe there are two factories churning these out over in China, rather than 2 sellers of one source.
Anybody fancy a game?

[livejournal.com profile] the_muttster has become somewhat addicted to playing poker at work, so he may be up to it if the great MKP/AN/LJ UK meet I keep promising to have in my backyard comes off :)

In fact, one of his colleagues nearly bought the ones you were selling on e-bay, as they were feeling limited by playing for paperclips during their lunchtime poker games.

Was that colleague one of the ones I emailed to say "I wouldn't pay more than a fiver for these myself, including postage" ?
They went for 5.70 in the end (inc p&p), to some guy in Bournemouth.
I hope he gets as much use out of them as I did.
My next ebay sell will be the old AD&D stuff I never actually used. Not quite mint as it spent some time in a not-entirely-dry cellar.
