I also noticed that when I got my sample. I love the chips, but dont know if I like the size. I noticed it as soon as I looked at them and picked them up, then compared with other chips, and sure enough they were smaller. They feel great though.

I have 550 TR Kings, and while I do notice the size when comparing them to other chips, I don't notice one bit in my games. These are my favorite kind of chips and I don't really see myself buying anything else unless I get a good deal on some Paulsons (I obviously like those). I love the feel, the weight, and the looks and they are a great quality chip...Dennis is also great to work with.

I measured a bunch of different chips a while back. See here:
Chip measurements...
Also, I agree with Panther in that it only matters if you are comparing them to other chips. Once all the chips in front of you at the table are the same, you're not going to notice or care about the 1mm difference in diameter.

Might explain the slightly smaller size.
