Anyone have a CostCo chip set?

[homegame]

I did some sleuthing today at Costco in San Francisco in lieu of buying a new set. There were two different sets for sale--one was on display and one was in a yellow box. Both had 500 chips, but neither is the same as the set that can be found online 650/$99.

So here's the scoop: After breaking into the display model ("The Deluxe ???" set in the greenbox), I played w/ the chips and they are great! They don't slip and slide like most of chips available for sale, so they stack very well. They also feel great and sound good--my 3 most important criteria. I did notice the problem others have mentioned--that the white/blue chips look similar. A new shipment of 40 are arriving tomorrow. I'm buying b/c they wouldn't sell me the display model (plexiglass was bolted onto the open case). There was no dealer button, only cards and dice.

The chips in the yellow box sucked. After tearing thru the cellophane, opening the box, the styrofoam, and more cellophane I could feel the outside of the chips...too slick!

Hope that helps.

Any suggestion for felting a dining room table?
