Could you please elaborate a little? A friend of mine is thinking pretty serious about buying them, but if I'm going to tell him to stay away from them, I'd like to have some reasons. Thanks.

There's a very in-depth discussion of them here somewhere, try a search. There are more discussions about them on TexasHoldem-Poker.com. Also, see review at http://www.pokerchipreviews.com/ .

I had 5 samples from them here for a while. I played around with them, shuffled them in with other chips, etc.

First off, I really loved the feel of them. Almost a rubbery feel, very nice.

Unfortunatlely, thats about all I can say good about the chip. They have dots on the edges instead of edge spots, which look ok. Their logo is plastered on all the chips and they use this god awful pink on way too many chips for the logo.

The logo/writing showed excessive wear after a couple of weeks of just shuffling em around. They also snap in half with very little effort.

I would recommend, for a little more money, that you check out either thepokerchipcompany.com if you dont want custom (around $200 for 500) or pokerchips.com if you want to do custom colors/edgespots (around $250 for 500 without doing custom writing, thats just plain chips but you get to pick colors/edge spot colors)

I would not recommend the All In chips to anyone. While I did like their feel, the quality just isnt there for the money you are paying. You would be better off with the 13g Casino chips or spending a little more on what I suggested above.

I got a sample pack and would have to say that they have a good feel. My main problem is their edgespots. I'm not a fan of the dots on the edges.

The problem is that the ONLY thing that is good on them is the feel, everything else is bad =(

If you ask me they look pretty cheesy.

What about the fact that you can break them in half with one hand?
