Barb saw the chips and figured I'd want them since they had writing on the chips. She knows what I like The lady was asking $10 and Barb got them for $5. Just getting 6 different ad chips I didn't have was worth that. I could see her wheeling and dealing. I'd hate to play poker with her. The chips a are really cheap but, the lid to the set is made up from pieces of cast metal. It's a pretty heavy unit.
