Lots of competition on eBay and Amazon for trying to sell poker chips - so much that it's getting tough for retailers like myself to sell chip sets on there. I'd recommend asking friends whether they want a set for $60 or the like. Postage can be a bit of a killer with these sets because of their weight, so selling to a friend or locally gives you a chance to charge slightly more for the set itself but work out cheaper than buying from online.

no my friends were like $50 for 200 of them
i would never pay over like $100 for 500 chips or like 20c a chip i guess
they're just the same style as those in the link

but they're 10x more expensive ( of course my friends aren't paulson chips though )
beautiful chips though
OK I'm not that good at knowing what is good or not when it comes to chips but this link is just to damn expensive for me. I never knew that casino's spend thousands maybe even millions on poker chips. Nice link but I'm going to have to stay away from the best quality of chip sets

Ok, I feel kinda bad that I took the link out now, because to be honest, I thought it was just another spam on the board. I sent you a PM photojunkie, so if you send me the link, I'll take a look, and if it is indeed just a photo, I'll re-insert it.

My estimate for you set is one chip wieghs in at about 0.025 pounds.

I'll help you out. Here's a couple similar on eBay:

Even though yours has a wood case, it looks like $129-$500 is way too high. Maybe that's what a store would charge. On the secondary market, it looks like they are pretty plentiful and the market is flooded. Not ... | | Read Entire Entry |

Man, This is a new way to play. Go the tables and say you're betting too much; I don't want to take advantage of you.

Well, ya know, this is Cardschat.com--not eBay. And, I kept your post up, because if people are really interested, they can PM you and you can hash out the details that way.

do you know what kind of chips they are?
how much they weigh? (individually?)
by the way they look, these are the most common type of clay composite(i think) chips
they sell on ebay for much less than the price you've found if they're the ones i'm thinking of
you should find out the exact weight dimensions and what they're made of before selling them because you might be selling for too much or too little
take a closer pic of the chip and maybe we can see what kind they are
also that wooden box probably adds some nice alue to it
