Our Neophyte
poker chip line represents an attractive mid-range
poker chip that is ideally suited towards value-conscious
consumers. Neophyte, by definition, means beginner
or novice, so it’s appropriate that this line
was added to our offerings as a starter set for
customers that weren’t quite ready to drop
$500-$600 on a set of true casino-quality chips
such as our Modern
Clay or Archetype
lines.
The foundation
for the Neophyte poker chip is currently what we’ve found
to be the best mid-range poker chip available on the market,
which we’ve substantially enhanced with our classically
designed 4-color Laurel wreath and dice silkscreen inlay that
comes in 8 denominations. The combination of the economical
base and the 4-color inlay (reminiscent of what you’d
find on our true casino lines) makes for good quality, denominated
chips that can be offered at a value-conscious price.
These chips
are not clay or “clay composite”, as no inexpensive
poker chips are, no matter what anyone tells you. All inexpensive
poker chips are injection molded and it’s physically impossible
to injection mold clay. They’re all some kind of plastic
composite, and are typically made in China. Whatever you do
when buying inexpensive poker chips elsewhere, make sure you
get a sample first as there are two predominant types, one that
feels a bit like a hockey puck, and one that is unmistakably
hard cheap plastic (sometimes called ABS). We strongly recommend
staying away from ABS. The Neophyte poker chip line contains
a somewhat rubbery substance, which makes it approximate a clay
chip far better than any other inexpensive poker chip out there.
Since this will be a starter set for many and to
ensure an easy path to ownership of a real clay
poker chip set, all customers who buy a Neophyte
set of 300 chips or more can participate in our
Trade-up
Program and get a trade-up option worth up to
$100 off one of our real clay poker chip sets (see
details).
