 Great Poker Chip Set for the Price Feb 25, 2008
By Robert Lidral
The set I received matched the picture but not the description. The two differences were:
(1) The case is not lockable. That is OK with me; I don't plan to lock it and didn't want the hassle of keeping track of the keys. Also, the case has three latches instead of the two on a lot of other sets. The extra latch provides additional protection against accidental opening.
(2) The chip color distribution is:
150 white
150 red
100 blue
50 green
50 black
I prefer this color distribution because I am accustomed to the following values for each color:
white - 1
red - 5
blue - 10
green - 25
black - 100
and it's usually a good idea to have more chips for the smaller denominations than for the larger ones. However, since the chips do not have denominations on them, they can be used for any denominations desired.
These are not true casino-grade chips (and they cost a lot less than casino-grade chips). But they're great for home games. I bought them on sale for less than $35 (less than $.07/chip) which is a really good price. You'd have a hard time finding lightweight plastic chips for that price and these are much the better 39mm 11.5g chips. The price was even better because Amazon had a temporary deal making this eligible for FREE Super Saver shipping so I didn't have to pay shipping charges.
Many of the chips had very slight casting burrs. These were not easily visible and only barely noticeable to the touch -- I had to look for them. I don't consider this a defect at this price and they may wear off during use, but I wanted to mention it to be thorough. Also, two of the chips had defects in the colors but 2 out of 500 is pretty good quality control for this price.
As described, the set included 2 decks of cards and 3 buttons (dealer, small blind, and big blind). The case also included a space for dice (the dice weren't mentioned in the listing and weren't included in the set). I only mention that in case you want to add poker dice (also available from Amazon): there's room in the case for them.
Other reviews complain about shipping damage. My set arrived quickly (less than a week with FREE Super Saver shipping) and in perfect condition.

 FAT CAT CAN KEEP THESE POKER CHIPS Sep 08, 2008
By Norman D. Wong
"Mr Sushi"
A poker chip set with a four star rating and free shipping, good deal right?. Its not,they are poorly made plastic chips with colors that bled into each other or have blurred print. The manufacturer also forgot the last step in making the poker chips; which was smoothing the rough edges. I had bought this chip set to play with my friends and was more disappointed than they were.
There are better chips on Amazon, you might worry that you will have to pay twenty dollars on shipping. I say, spend the extra twenty dollars and get a good chip set you can be proud of.

Exactly what I wanted Dec 13, 2007
By S. Scribner
I bought this set for my father for Christmas, and I was a little worried that it would not have the big blind and little blind chips, but it did and it is PERFECT! I think it's very high quality, it has heavy chips and a heavy case, and exactly what I/he wanted! I was so pleased with my purchase! I got it from Fogdog, I received it in less than a week. I could not be happier with this set or the service! Thank you!

 Humiliation Jan 30, 2009
By Marcy Long
"MRK"
The inside of the case was broken and peices were missing. I would have returned it, but it was a gift for someone else, and they didnt have the time to take it back to the post office and return it. I would have liked to at least have it discounted. I would not recommend it, it was a humiliation as a gift.

Couldn't be better Aug 28, 2008
By D. Cassone

I read the review from the guy who thought he should be getting clay quality chips. For $39.00???? Some people are never satisfied. Five stars from me. Great value, great chips, great case and free delivery.
