Is there a web site anywhere where we can see all BYOAC tokens ever made?

That's a good idea for my website - I will see what I can do. For now I can post them here. In addition to what we have above, I have made - in order below: 2004 (The first ever,out of stock) 2007 (a few left in stock,) Arcade Memories (not a BYOAC Token - still in stock)

I'd be interested in a grab bag as well. Mix n match designs as well as brass and nickel. I've got a big ass bag of random tokens, but it's always neat to pull out one of the BYOAC coins.

The 'sampler' request comes up every few years, and I am sad to say there is just no way for me to accommodate it for small numbers of tokens.
I need to buy a minimum of 10,000 tokens to get the favorable pricing that I need to make them affordable to my customers. If I was to offer small volumes (say 50 or less) of various tokens many people would order less and it would take me years to break even on my investment. The way I handle this is to offer 100 packs as a minimum for reprints and 200 for new issues. I realize that I probably turn away some potential smaller orders by doing it this way but ultimately this way works best for me.
I see this approach is a necessary evil to enable tokens to be available to the community at all. If I can't recover my investment fast enough, I don't have much incentive to order at all. I know brass prices make my tokens seem expensive, but look at it this way - at my 200-lot pricing, a token costs less than a quarter and is, in my view, 1000 times cooler. ;)
Nephasth:
Just a thought. :-\
Options.

Oh - I appreciate the feedback, and keep it coming! I might sound a bit defensive because I hate that I need to do it this way.
