Whenever I have seen people playing with plaques I have always said to myself that I would order some.
After looking at TenPercenter's chip set (great by the way) I decided to look into this. I did a search on google.com but did not find a lot of info.
Anyone know how much they run?
Also, does anyone know if plaques are sold to the public that are stock design rather than custom? If so, where at? Any other ideas on how to get my hands on some? If custom is the only option, where are my choices?
Thanks for reading.

They are chipco
So you can get them through chipco.com in volume. Or through some of the other vendors that handle chipco orders.
Check in on ten's thread for their printer...
http://www.homepokerchips.com/ appear to have their act together.

GPI (they own Paulson) sells them, but only to casinos. Matsui sells them, but they are very expensive and not that great of quality from what I hear (my samples are on the way). You can see them on the PDF catologs from their websites.
I am using Chipco for mine because I want to match my set, and I want high detail graphics (only likely to happen using ceramic base, not acrylic).
I'm lucky to be getting plaques from Chipco. They don't like to do them for personal sets, and I have a feeling my Egyptians will be the last time for plaques and octagons.

I guess for personal sets, they're not getting enough volume for them. I see that Chipco would still do it for Hollywood Park Casino for their annual Year of the ... octagon $2.50 and $5, and a $8 plaque.

yes, I meant that this will be the last time for plaques and octagons for home sets. They said that it's not normally allowed and they are severely limiting me on edgspots for this reason. I got the gist that I am lucky to have it allowed for my home set.
Do you know of any pictures of the Hollywood Park Casino chips?

Cool, those are the first real-world photos I've seen of Chipco octagons and plaques. Until now I've only seen their sample page photos...
