Nice, and Great with a little work

Picked up some samples of these, and
wasn't too dissapointed. The colors
are nice - strong, without being too
bright, and there's a nice variety to
choose from. They are still a little
too slick for my taste. I had hoped the
embossed etxture on the chips would help
keep them from sliding, but it seemed to
make them a little slippery. I took a
couple chips, sanded them a little with
500 grit paper to wear down the textured
bumps, and the final result felt much
softer, and slipped a lot less. The
little extra work from sanding made a
chip that cost me $0.12 feel like a chip
I'd be willing to pay $0.50 for, which
makes it worthwhile to me to pick these
up instead of the NexGen Casino chips.

I ordered several Nexgen samples as part
of my search for a high quality,
low-cost set to cover multi-table
tournaments. These are fine chips for
the price and the ease of labeling them
is a plus, but I was a little
disappointed in them. They seemed a
little too plastic-like to me, the metal
insert was clearly audible, and they
were a little bit slippery. Everything
is relative, of course, as they are far
and away better than some of the slick
ABS plastic dice-style chips that I've
played with. I like the Pro Clay 13g
chips (approx same cost) slightly better
than the Nexgens (see my review of these
chips), but they're close. If you can
afford it, I'd recommend bumping up one
level to the All-In chips. If not, I'd
recommend considering the uber-low-cost
Faux Clays as an alternative. I think
the Faux Clays handle/sound/stack/feel
much better than the Nexgen (and Pro
Clays). I like these better, but most
of my poker friends think they look
really plain and prefer the Nexgens &
Pro Clays (looks over function).

These chips are not what i hoped for. i
would like to say these are a pice of
plastic crap, but i cant, cause the
price, i dont think you get better
quality for that price. they look pretty
good, but the quality is not, they get
dented real easy. i almost ordered 1000
of these, glad i didnt, they would
probably work for homegames and such,
but since i got more and more picky when
it comes to quality, i dont want these
chips.

The new nexgen Bees are finally out--
and theyre great-- theyre the same
quality as the nexgen series. Pricing is
a bit higher because it's new to the
market but well affordable. We will be
getting in our Paulson clones soon--
this chip is as identical as you will
find to a real Paulson. SAME weight,
same feel, but most importantly-- SAME
MANUFACTURING process-- compression
molded chips are coming!! It's about
time. Our factory finally listened to us
and spend the big bucks for a
compression mold machine-- the US market
is going to change now and you'll be
able to own AS GOOD a pauslon-- for
under 35cents a chip.
If youre reading this post- remember--
board members get special deals from us
as a courtesy-- we're closing out the
DICE chips now so you can pick up dice
chips from us for a nickle ea-- or a
full set of 500 incl. case cards dice
dealer button for under 29 bucks!!

I saw these 13g poker chips online. They
are cheaper than the Nexgen chips and
seem like similar quality.

Hey Joe, where can I find info about
ordering from Palm Imports?
Also, what sort of timeline do you have
for coming out with the new mold? What
about the custom stamping? I'm looking
ballpark: 1-3months, 3-12months,
etc...

Thanks
