Betting the internet is a sure thing for those custom clay poker chips you have been looking for? Youre probably right. There are hundreds of clay poker chip distributors out there that sell chips and most have the option of going customized or stock. You wont face a problem with options available or a place to buy your custom chips, if anything; you need help narrowing it down from the many choices available. When gathering your information, look at poker chip chat rooms, reviews on custom chip auction sites and use word of mouth. Where are all your buddies buying their custom clay poker chip sets? What you do not want to do is choose where to buy your custom chips by price alone. If you are in the custom clay chip market, price should be one of your last considerations when shopping. Picking by price alone will end up getting you a metal insert, injection molded chip that is the farthest thing from a pure clay poker chip as you could imagine. It doesnt matter what the add says. While you shop around to get the best price on your poker chips, make sure that you are comparing the exact same clay chips before you make a decision. It may come down to something as small, but still important as .5 of a gram in weight or the use of lead dust in the manufacturing process. A small difference of .5 gram in the weight of your clay poker chip will also be reflected in the price as the lead will add weight and replace the amount of clay needed to make weight. When looking back and forth comparing prices of custom clay poker stacks make sure that the weights, diameters, design complexity, material and case are of the same quality. From there you can make an educated guess that you are truly getting a good deal on your clay chips and not making the mistake of comparing prices between two chip sets that vary in quality. Remember that when you go with a clay custom setup, you are going to get what you pay for. If it seems like a steal and too good to be true, it probably is. On a parting note, if you are going to be buying your custom clay chips for a large poker organization and not just a 10 player game, you may want to look into a wholesaler. After the setup charge, going this route can save you big time on repeat and volume orders of customized clay chips. |
