dude, we are buying 100,000 chips! just let that number sink in and think about it for a moment.

While 100,000 chips seems like a lot to us, in reality, it is not a large order for Paulson. I would not get my hopes up for the low prices some are suggesting.

But, we can dream!

alright. let's talk about that. how many chips does a medium sized, non mega-casino order in a year, would we guess?

I wish I would have found this site before I got my chips. I love the Egyptians and would like some of these but just cant justify another large chip purchase.

Great design though. I go have a nice set up chipco chips (1300 of them), so I am fine for now.

Sounds like a good question for Paulsonchips.

Actually, 100,000 chips is consider a very large order for a casino, but the price casino pays are much much higher than the home chips.

Hey. Lets see if we can get the RFID chips put in them... get a bulk rate on door scanners... then when people pocket the chips in home games you can nail them on the front lawn before they get away.

Just kidding.

Agree, but probably depends a lot on the casino.

Really? How much do casino's pay per chip? [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

Seriously, many current casino Paulsons have security features that would up the cost for sure, but without those, I doubt they cost any more (probably even less) than the home chips (which we don't even have a price on anyway!).

The chip price that casinos pay are close to $2/chip even for quantity greater than 5 or 10 thousand. All of those LE chips that you see in Vegas and casinos elsewhere, only occasionally do you see LE chips in denoms less than $5. That's because if they made too many $1 LE chips, they end up losing a lot of money because of all the collectors and tourists walking off with them. Even the non-LE $1 house chips, casinos are losing money if too many of those "walk" off.

Also think about $0.25 and $0.50 denomination chips, if collectors or people bought those from the casinos by the rackfuls, the casinos would be losing quite a bit of money.

hey i was just wondering which mold Paulson would use, the traditional hat and cane or the newer one used for the new JB's. The traditional h & c mold is far superior...anyway...put me down for 500 or so...

We don't know yet. Once I have an image I'll show you (if it's allowed). It'll likely be a "mostly" like the JB one, with a wider texture ring around the outside, and less flat area in the middle.
