Hey guys, just wanted to toss a heads up to anybody that might have been lookin to pick up a cheapo set of chips, or maybe somebody who runs some homegames that wants to add on to their current selection of chips.
Overstock.com has some good deals atm.

The infamous "dice" chips are sellin, 500 pc. sets for $49.95, which seems to be on the good side of what you find on ebay, but the shipping on overstock.com is about 400x better than you'll ever get on ebay.
They've also got some decent deals on chips that look to be a step or three up from the dice chips. Didn't really look too long or hard at the sets, but just figured this was worth sharing with the forum.

I got a set of those - but with denoms on them. I think I paid about $40 for the chips, $60 for the shipping and another $60 import duty 
Had my first proper game with them last week and was very pleased with them. I realise that there are people on here who won't play with anything less than hand carved pieces of the true cross autographed by elvis - but for the rest of us a nice chunky chip that stacks well and looks ok is just fine.

500 Nevada Jack composits for $379.99?? That's a ripoff even with the free shipping. They are $299 on nevadajacks.net.
Where do they get these list prices? $675.00??? Man, this kind of misleading crap makes me mad. ...taking a deep breath...

You can get the same 500 piece sets on ebay for $0.99 + 39.99 shipping. There are plenty of designs to choose from.
