Title: Buying Custom Tokens
Post by: Gambit on July 30, 2006, 03:24:20 am

I would like to have custom tokens made for the machine I am making.

The problem being I can only find places with 5000 minimum order for custom tokens.  That would be about $500 for the tokens, plus another $200 die setup for each side. $900 just for tokens, wahhhhh.

I notice arcadetokens.com has low order quantities, does anyone know if they also do custom tokens?

I wasn't thinking anything too fancy, just a stock design on one side and maybe my name on the other side.

Any ideas?

Arcadetokens.com only has low order quantities because they purchase a set design in large quantites and then resell them.

AFAIK noone offers custom tokens in small batches, sadly, because that would be pretty cool.
