This is is kind of cool but I'm not sure I would order it.  Cost is about $110.

They are charging $25 dollars to ship... that kind of turned me off it.

That does seem high.  Shipping seems to be increasing a lot lately.  Probably due to gas prices.

Well now that I have an ebay store I know alot more about shipping costs. USPS's prices are set and gas prices don't increase them. Not sure about UPS or Fedex. Unless this item is super heavy which it might be, $25 is a bit much for shipping.

Didn't stamps just go up?  I'm guessing this does weigh a bit but I doubt $25 worth.  I try to look at the whole price of something when I order online.  So is $134 worth it to me for this set of poker chips.  Right now, I'm passing.

Star Wars action news covered this set a few weeks back. They did not sound overly enthusiastic about them, as felt the chips were a bit lightweight. I think they are cool, but not at that price :(
