Where can I buy these WSOP chips

Hi there!
These are the best WSOP chip replicas I've seen so far and I want to buy a set.
Anyone has any idea where can I buy such chip sets on the internet?
Thx!

LOL @ smaller denominations that wouldn't ever be used for WSOP.

Could be used in cash games while the WSOP is running

They'd probably be using their own chips at the cash tables. The WSOP is a different type of event. Those also look really horrible label wise, kinda fake to me. I just don't think I ever paid a ton of attention to the chips they use during tournament.

Re: Where can I buy these WSOP chips

My question is why are their two 5000 chip colors? And also, why is there a 10000 and 50000 chip?

Here is my own google effort:

The feeling I got is that these are replicas of WSOP chips. Being ceramic, I would think they'd be pretty nice.

Let me know if you figure out what "aligned" and "non-aligned" edges means. That's a pretty big price difference and the graphic seems the same.

"Aligned" chips will have the spots on the edge of the chip lined up with the spots on the face of the chip, giving it more of a clay chip appearance, whereas "unaligned" chips the spots on the face will not line up with the spots on the edge of the chip. The rest of the chip will look the same on the aligned and unaligned chips.

John at J5 Designs did the design for my custom chips, and ABC physically made my ceramics. Good experiences with both of them.

Re: Where can I buy these WSOP chips

Those are the best you will find I think. MrChip made some great ones a year or more ago, but they had to stop because of copyright questions. If you look on www.chiptalk.net and search you will find more info

EDIT: maybe I'm wrong, I meant these: http://www.mrchip.eu/2007wsr.htm

Re: Where can I buy these WSOP chips

I just ordered a sample set of the 2006 and the 2007 chips sets. Can't wait for them to get here. I'm prob getting the 2006 version (if I like the feel/look/potential durability of them).

Has anybody ever actually handled any of these?
