They match the Colorado ones, but no inlays. Probably props for the "big stack" shots. They are real Blue Chips, the closeups confirm.

Indecently, while I was talking with Dave Endy the other day he mentioned in passing that they did make those chips. It’s obvious from the pictures as well but I thought it was worth mentioning.

What do you think blanks would cost from BC? Not a group buy, but retail price? All I've ever seen were on casinocom.com, and they're down 90% of the time.

That’s certainly an intriguing question but I don’t have the answer. I would guess around 80/90cents for a smaller order (1000 or less - 400 is the minimum order). Right now Dave is saying 75c for less than 50k with custom edge spots and inlay plus a fee from their graphic artist.
I am scheduled to talk with him tomorrow and will pose the specific question if you would like? What kind of quantity are you talking?

I dont want any, I'm just wondering if 99c is a good deal for the chips that were used on Tilt.

Ahh, well to me they are just blank bluechips... The fact that they were on tilt may make them more valuable in some circles but as far as I'm concerned they are only worth about 65 cents. I say this because you can get ASM with edge spots for 50 - the bluechips have multi colored spots so I have to give them a slightly higher value. There's also the shipping cost to consider...

I seem to remember Dave saying to my wife on the phone that the blank chips go for .55 or .65 with a 500 chip min. So, IMO, .99 a piece or $400 for 300 chips is extreme. I could care less if they were from the show, they are still just blank chips, lol.
I almost put in an order with that casinocom.com a while back until I read other threads about them and couldn't get a reply from them about those blank chips. So, my wife called Dave to get some pricing information.

Hey all newb to the forum. I'd like to know if they would do this. I thought about bidding on the blank chips, but if it is possible to get chips straight for the source for less I'd be down. I would also be curious if they would do a chip just like the Colorado or Diamond chips since they probably still have all the art work, etc. Sent you a pm on this circlencircle.

No, they wont reproduce -any- casino chips for you. They will make the blank ones for you however. Probably around 65c each I think... Check out the "Custom Bluechips (Group buy)" thread though, if you don’t want the chips right now you could wait a few weeks and get in on the chips I am designing. Heres the link to the most recent mockups. Take a look back through the thread for more details

I'll tell you, I would be totally into getting some blank blue chips. There are some on ebay with labels that totally rock in terms of edge spots and in my opinion, this is where the Blue Chips can't be beat.
If you find out how much they are, please post it. I've got to give Endy a call...
