    Those steel dice are tight.

    They are indeed ... I tried prying them apart ... but didnt want to risk breaking them ... so they are also "tight"

    Howe many dice do you have? How about in pounds? :P

    Howe many dice do you have?

    The current total is 28910 ... but that is just for today ... chances are ... tomorrow it will change

    You can always see the current (or close) total on >

    How about in pounds? :P

    I never even considered weighing them ... as weight doesnt really have much meaning

    For example ... the entire contents of the > container (upper right) ... click > to see the contents of the container

    probably would not weigh as much as >

    I have a question you may be able to help me with, Kevin.

    I recently decided to finally purchase a Chessex "Pound of Dice." Upon a quick google search I came across the following site: http://www.chessex.com/index.html and I'm not sure if it is legit/the best way to get a "Pound of Dice."

    I actually ended up ordering this product from Amazon.com but I'm still curious about this odd Chessex site. The weirdest thing to me was the method of ordering dice. They expect you to copy/paste their order form into your email and send them your credit card info. Is this legit? Is this common?

    Thanks.

    They are where I got all the Citadel custom dice from. You would think they could do the PayPal thing at least to make us "trust" them easier. But I had awesome customer service and it worked out.

    I was uncomfortable as well, no encryption through email either which is bad but had no issues with it.

    ...

    Yes ... Chessex is probably the largest polyhedral manufacturer in the world (by # of dice sold) ... they are legit ... albeit a bit behind the times

    If I were looking for pounds of dice I would check ebay ... as this is the safest and probably the least expensive option

    I got my Chessex Pound-O-Dice today and am quite satisfied. I got a very cool crystal clear d6 with gold number dots (and 8 of the exact same d20). I was wondering if you had collected the "special range of speckled dice" sets "only available in the Pound-O-Dice." There appears to be 6 different sets and I couldn't find any of them on the Chessex page of your website.

    I just thought I'd make sure you had them (not that I have any right to advise you on your collection, I have about a mere 300 dice total). Happy hunting, Sir.

  33. Re: Dice Talk

    #153
    Pieh

    I am glad you like your pound of dice

    Can you show me the crystal D6? ... I would be curious to see it

    As to the speckled dice ... According to Chessed they aren't necessarily made in sets ... the manufacturer may make only D20 and D8's or they may make full sets ... it all depends on what they are making that day ...

    The pounds of dice .. truly are random

  34. Re: Dice Talk

    #154
    It's not really crystal, i was just using that to describe how clear it is. Here is a pic:

    [img width=400 height=300]http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c273/TheMightyPieh/2010-01-27-53441.jpg

    As to the speckled dice. That's interesting, since what I read said there was 1 complete set of special dice always shipped with each pound of dice. And the 6 colors shown on the insert I got are all of d10's.

  35. Re: Dice Talk

    #155
    Ok ... thanks ... I was concerned that the die might have been one of the Crystal Caste crystal dice
