I don't get group buys - help me understand

[meat whistle]

I agree with Cassius. I found this site after buying Dan Harringtons book. It happens I was also looking for nice looking poker chips. I have learned more about chips from this forum then I could ever have imagined. I was going to by a set from a local supplier but after seeing what options are out there I changed my mind as every site seems to offer the same style but the pricing differences are what amazes me for the same chip set. It makes me wonder if some of these dealers are just drop shipping. I would be all for a group by if I like the design as I would be getting high quality chips that are unique.
