Hi,

Does anyone know the seller of these dice?
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Lot-of-crooked-dice-loaded-dice-gaffed-collectible-Large-set-Craps-gambling-/190651480028?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item2c63b6b7dc#ht_521wt_1378

I'm interested on them but I want to buy quality items for a collection, something that has been or could be used for real.

Thanks!

I've bought a handful of gaffed dice from him. The quality is good. They are definitely usable. Considering the gaff, quality, and quantity, it's a very reasonable asking price in my opinion.

I have no idea who made them and I've never purchased anything from the guy. It's hard to say without seeing them up close and handling them. But 200 bucks for 11 cubes of clear weight seems reasonable to me as well. There are duplicates there so if some of them are better than others you could keep the best examples of each and sell the rest.

Might be a great item for collectors.....

Not sure for magical purposes if they would be reliable enough on a consistent basis.

I need someone who makes custom dice / can match existing dice. Expecting to drop a couple hundred.

PM me if you have any contacts

He doesn't do flush spots, so if that's what you need then forget about it. Again the quality is pretty good and the imperfections are only noticeable under a very close inspection.
