Here is a quote: "Ok guys, sorry about all the confusion. The reason I am in contact with the molds is because, my father, Dennis' brother has worked for T.R. King for the past 30 years. When T.R. King closed doors my father took over the name and still continues to make dice. The molds are the real deal. T.R. King is still open, but they no longer produce chips. I'm sure nobdy tried to call the old T.R. King telephone number. Try it 213-749-7636. I guarantee you will be surprised. Ask for the diceman."
Here also is the link to the discussion thread there:

Please bear in mind that the poster (ninpackerfan) is new there and is getting the same general reception that terms like the "real deal", serious buyers only and being a bit anonymous would get him here. However, his latest comment (above) has the possibility of verification. I've not called as I not a serious buyer. But the story sure is interesting!!
