T. R. King Poker Chips For Sale

[John S]

This lot of chips were made by the now closed down T.R. King Chip Company who made chips for casinos and private custom orders.
I dont know anything much about these chips.
There one of the favourite chips amongst my poker group for their nice playability. They have plenty of grip to stack well and sound nice.
They have a gold "BR" hotstamp on both sides. If your first or last name starts with B your set. They could stand for B_ _ _ 's Room, or just make some shit up.
If you play for decent stakes and worry about people smuggling in chips you dont need to worry about it with this lot. They would be impossible to replicate.
They are in used but excellent condition.

There are 499 total - 199 Tan, 150 Blue, 150 Red.
As usual i will include a new 2 deck box of plastic playing cards.
There is no case with this lot but will be posted in 5 x 100 chip cardboard carriers that are great for keeping the chips in anyway.

These chips originally cost me $330 (I bought them second hand from the US)
I will sell them for $300 + postage. I wont be dropping the price on these at all because I dont mind keeping them.

If you want to see positive feedback do a search, I have sold plenty of sets on this forum, all with very happy customers.

If your interested PM me or send an email to johnsanders5554@hotmail.com

They have probably been through 5 or 6 people or more for all i know. I know the bloke i bought them from in Hawaii bought them from someone in the US who didnt know their origin either. Thats at least 4 people who have owned them. It doesnt really matter. I tried to find out their history but couldnt find anything. They are at least 10 years old and could be 30 or 40 years old for all i know. There not like a computer that depreciates. There condition is all that matters and these have minimal wear. Chips like these and ex casino chips are like basketball cards. There collectable. If you buy the right set of chips and shove em in the cupboard you could make $1000's in 10 or 20 years, same as basketball cards. Thats not why i have chips though. I just enjoy trying out different kinds of chips in my games. Ive owned pretty much every kind of decent chip available and love it. Some people blow their money on cars or guns or artwork or whatever but i blow it on chips.

One important thing John didnt mention is that the makers TR King, closed its doors 3(?) years ago and said at that time the small crown mold will never be sold or used again. TRK small crown chips are quite prized by many people as there will never be any more.

If they were BN I reckon I would have snapped them up for a friend, I have been thinking of asking john if I could buy 10 as a shuffling stack as I have been told that TRK have an awesome smooth buttery texture

Good luck with the sale John!
