NEW RELEASE - FARO DUNES - PAULSON CHIPS

GENERAL INFO:


Faro Dunes is a collection of MINT, absolutely NEW, authentic Paulson / GPI 39mm Hot Stamped clay compression molded casino chips. These genuine casino chips were made to the same exacting specifications used for casinos worldwide. ‘Faro’ is the Spanish translation for Lighthouse, so Faro Dunes (aka Lighthouse Dunes) is a simple yet elegant coastal / tropical inspired theme showcasing a lighthouse flanked by palm trees. This professionally designed collection offers 2 unique and distinguished variations providing Cash Value Sets and separate but complementary Tournament Sets. The gorgeous Cash Value Sets feature the lighthouse offset to the left with gold foil hot stamping and comes in 7 denominations (.25c, $1, $2, $5, $20, $25 & $100) utilizing an eye-pleasing and classic color palette. The stunning Tournament Sets' design presents the lighthouse centered with silver foil hot stamping and comes in 5 eye-popping and vibrant colored denominations (25, 100, 500, 1000 & 5000) plus a special Metallic Gold ‘Bounty’ chip. In addition to these 13 chips, there is a SPECIAL 48mm ‘Dealer Button Chip’ with a full color super giant inlay for use with either set.

Using decades of experience in casino chip manufacturing, design, collecting, sales and poker playing, every detail of this collection has been meticulously scrutinized and selected: including manufacturer, color pallets, edge spot detail, inlay designs, culminating with the equally important selection of the set denominations and quantities. The sets are as functional as they are appealing. There are two preselected Tournament Sets and two 25c/50c Cash Value sets. The two Tournament Sets have denominations and quantities chosen for efficiency and function whether you opt for the 400 piece Single Table T25 Tournament Set or the 620 piece 2 Table T25 Tournament Set with Bounty Chips. The standard 500 piece Cash Value Set provides ample bank for 1 table up to 10 players allowing for rebuys and the Deluxe 1000 piece Cash Value Set allows for 2 tables but also has the flexibility to play higher stakes. These stock sets were intended for play right out of the box but we understand that not everybody’s game is the same. Need a different cash set breakdown to suit your particular needs? Start with a stock set and add-on chips or request a special order and create your own perfect set tailored to fit your needs.

Love these chips but want your own design? Use a 3rd Party to re-stamp or mill and install custom inlays.

FREE SHIPPING - Are you a true gambler and want free uninsured shipping on your expensive if not priceless items?

And the release/sale process seems well thought out.
It's a little janky but it gives people who want add-ons or larger sets a chance. Also, might allow for people to pick up just a couple barrels.

That T1K is fire
Thank you. It is actually better in person if you can believe that. When I opened the first box my jaw dropped. The 1k and the 5k on the table at the end of the tourney are gorgeous. looking forward to getting them in play this week.
 
Sample orders placed by 2pm ET today will be shipped out today with upgraded Fedex 2 day delivery so you have live samples prior to the sale. Orders after the time will ship on 3/10 when I return from the meet-up.
 
All 2pm orders have shipped via Fedex 2 Day. Tracking #s sent.

ANYONE ORDERING SAMPLES BEFORE 10 PM ET TONIGHT WILL SHIP VIA FEDEX 2DAY NO LATER THAN TOMORROW MORNING ON MY WAY TO THE AIRPORT. Those shipments should deliver prior to the sale.
 
Pics don't do these chips justice. Playing with them in person was a real treat. The hot stamp allows the base colors to really stand out on this set and these chips look great in stacks.

I'm bad with photos, but any photos are better than no photos, right? We've been getting in some 25c/50c as well as some limit. I'm very impressed by these chips in person.
