Poker chips when they arrived were all packed and looked brand new but i think they never went through a wet wash or anything so the stacks of chips when opened seemed a little dusty the first time I played with it. Other then that I like the quality of the chips a lot and the sound is pretty impressive like at a Casino. My case is sturdy as well but the inner lining was peeling off when it arrived so had to glue it properly other then that i really liked the set a lot. Its a great gift as well.
