Just a quick note to let everyone involved in the Egyptian
Chips Group ordering........They are on UPS and scheduled to

email from me tonight and are part of this group, please
let me know.

Re: Egyptian Chips are on the move!
 

Yikes, I'm new here and just saw these chips. I love them!! Is it too late to add another 500 order at the special price?

Those look like photos of the actual octagons and plaques on MSPatton's web page...

Re: Egyptian Chips are on the move!
 

so did the octagons end up w/ orange on the edges we can't see in the picture?
What do the side edges of the plaques look like?

anxious to see the .25 chip, too....

I'm so damn impatient...

Re: Egyptian Chips are on the move!
 

thanks for the pics!

whoa --- what happened to the blue on the .25 chip? it looks kinda purple....

Re: Egyptian Chips are on the move!
 

were these chip over-ordered in case newer people (me) wanted some?

wondering/hoping

Re: Egyptian Chips are on the move!
 

Was the .25 chip rolling edge supposed to be a different color than the face?

Michael, you're killing me. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] I officially prohibit any use of The Egyptian chips in any game until I have mine, because I'm so anxious (jealous). [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

p.s. Hurry. (not kidding)

Re: Egyptian Chips are on the move!
 

Ten,
Be careful, I can still call back that O/N package I sent today!

You will be the first [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]..Unles of course we have a little
"friendly" game here in the warehouse!

I have updated the details pages of my site to show some stacks
http://www.holdempokerchips.com/products.asp?cat=31
just click a chip (or Octagon, or Plaque) for stacks [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]

Re: Egyptian Chips are on the move!
 

I just ordered sample quantities, and already, I feel myself getting wildly impatient.

{drumming fingers restlessly}

Re: Egyptian Chips are on the move!
 

The site looks great but that yellow script font is a bitch to read. Maybe it is just the font because it is hard to read even when you hover over it.

Overall the site looks great.

Can not wait to get my sample of these.

Re: Egyptian Chips are on the move!
 

Here is an option for storing the Plaques and Octagons.
I was able to place 20 Plaques and 40 Octagons in the card
spaces of this aluminum 300ct case. Plenty of space to close
the lid and the foam in the lid holds them snug. And I know
you all have Kem or Copag cards with boxes anyway so these
slots should be empty [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

You can also lay Plaques flat 6 or 7 high and Octagons will fit sideways in the chips rows also.

Boy I can't wait until next week.... Any chance these ship out tomorrow? LOL... Looks like I'll be hosting a poker game next weekend.

Can't wait till these arrive.

Thanks Ten and MS!

That's what I thought too. It must be the lighting - the other picture looks fine on the website:

Re: Egyptian Chips are on the move!
 

Correct, I am not the best at this new tech. And have little
time at the moment to keep "playing" to get them all as they
really are. Some are better than others.

Everything is on track to leave here on Monday morning.

Re: Egyptian Chips are on the move!
 

Already regretting not getting more. Sigh. What amazes me is that I probably have close to 1000 random casino/fantasy/sample chips on my desk all stacked up and all I have to play with are some clay composite chips w/ metal slugs in them. Hopefully I can come up with a great design and set up one of these group buys as well in the near future.

Re: Egyptian Chips are on the move!
 

Anyone else irrationally excited to get these? I've checked the UPS tracking number three or four times now!

Irrational? Me? Mine are currently "Out For Delivery".
They should be here in about 10 hours. I'm heading for the front porch to wait.

Re: Egyptian Chips are on the move!
 

Just received mine. Located in Michigan. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

AHHH i see. I forgot the lighter shipments were going Priority. Well 2 more days, I cant wait.

Re: Egyptian Chips are on the move!
 

USPS tracking (such as it is) says that it just made it to the area hub Manchester NH early this morning. Wonder if the chips come today or tomorrow.

Woohoo!

Yeah, unfortunately I had a "lighter" shipment. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img] I'll be taking care of that soon though. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Re: Egyptian Chips are on the move!
 

Geez! I'm glad I paid a little extra to bump up from Ground (probably after the weekend) to Three Day Select (tomorrow) so I can have them for the regular Sunday game!

Re: Egyptian Chips are on the move!
 

Just showed up.

The plaques are nicer than I expected. They're a bitch to shuffle, though.

Re: Egyptian Chips are on the move!
 

Copy that...$22 extra...why not!

The Egyptians have landed!
 

UPS came early today...
Here's a Picture

The 2000 chip case also arrived -- I'll post more info later, if you want.

So far, all I've done is unpack the chips. One little thing thatg somewhat surprised me, though, is the plaque. It seems to me that the back of the plaque is upside-down. Of course, you can't see both sides at once, but when you turn the plaque over it just seems upside-down.

Re: The Egyptians have landed!
 

those are beautiful.

Man, I thought they were a cinch to shuffle! How many do you have? I can riffle 12 plaques, piece o' cake (i'm no expert).

Great picture! It's cool to see these chips elsewhere... I hope you get them into a game soon.

Re: the plaque... Yeah, my Mom mentioned that too, I didn't notice it (starstruck maybe?). I asked and Chipco said that it's the way the plaques are placed in the machine. Other plaques are printed on the horizontal (like a dollar bill), which is how they're printed even when it's a vertical print.

No biggy to me, like you said, you can't see both sides at once...

p.s. Holy @#$%, you got a lot of plaques! Now I AM the one who is jealous! [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] I only got 10 and 2 spares. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Re: Egyptian Chips are on the move!
 

I expect you to bring some samples to view next week!

Did you get the octogon or plaque type?

Re: Egyptian Chips are on the move!
 

Got my sample set today. USPS to Northern VA.

Very cool.

Re: The Egyptians have landed!
 

the only bad thing about the plaques being upside down is that the back is made to look like the back of the sarcafagus(sp?) thing.

Yeah, I went a bit nuts with the plaques. Half that many would still be plenty for this set.
