Where would I buy a good poker set?

Asked by mlissa927 (5points) January 1st, 2007
I'm hoping to find something nice and authentic, not online. 500+ chips@ 11.5 grams

I'm sure there are some local shops that sell chips (though you might want to specify a location), but I suspect you will have much more success shopping online. Just because a retailer is online doesn't necessarily make them unauthentic... Most products are all coming from the same places. That being said, I can definitely understand the desire to feel a solid chip in my hand before I buy.

Looks like Target.com is selling 500 sets at with weights up to 14 grams. You might try calling a local store and see if you could check them out in person (I don't have personal experience with these chips, but they looks pretty decent).

I got a great one for not much money on Overstock.com

Wow, I just looked at the poker chips at Target. There are way too many choices there. Can anyone recommend a specific poker set?

You could also just go to a casino and buy several thousand dollars of chips. That will make the games more exciting anyone.

Ebay is your best bet. Lots of degenerate gamblers selling off their stuff for cheap.
