Anyone interested in BYOAC tokens?

(1/8) > >>

Hi folks, my wife's brother over in China strikes coinage for some of the pachislot machines over there, and he sent me a bunch of his tokens to use in my basement.  Just wondering, is anyone interested in some of the BYOAC tokens?  He's offering them at .025 USD per token if I can get 30k of them, since they have to set up the dies.  Anyone want some of these struck?

Generic Eric:
Pac Man tokens here we come!  Do you think he can do Pac Man?

Copper? Nickel? Unobtainium? Overabundancium?  How many per order? How much per order? Is that for both sides or per side?

iscariot:
I can check.  He said he can strike just about anything but if it's under 30k then there's a die fee of 650RMB($100)

JDFan:
+1 to Pacman or any other 80's classic Arcade character. Similar to these :





At 0.025 cents each I'm pretty sure we could get 30 people together for 1K each (ie. about $25 + shipping for 1,000) or maybe even 60 people for 500 pcs. depending on how much the shipping winds up costing -- If you can keep it around the $20 - $30+\- per person shipped for a decent amount of tokens, I'm pretty sure there would be interest (since most options currently run about $0.20+ per token - making it cheaper to just go to a Chuck-e-Cheese and get some of their's for use.

Main problem I see is the shipping costs from here add up fast so reshipping would add to the cost - if He can ship straight from China in the e-packets to 30 or 60 addresses it might keep the cost down significantly but not sure if he would be able to do that ! (China gets charged about $0.50 cents per pound shipped in those epackets with tracking where here it costs about $20 for the same ! )

Vigo:
I agree with JD, China gets an insanely cheap shipping rate and shipping would be the factor for me. If shipping is low, and the design is good, count me in for 500 at least.

I'd like to see the BYOAC token come back, but last time that was attempted, things got messy.  :(
