OPERATIONAL UPDATE May 2024
Poker-shop.co.uk in Southend has been operational since 1998 (that's over 25 years ago) and it was probably the first business in Europe that set out to supply decent casino and poker equipment for home and non-casino business users. We found the peak demand for such products in the UK was 2005 and we had 4 full time and 6 part time staff in a dedicated 3000 square foot warehouse (plus 1000 square foot off site) dealing with the high demand for poker equipment sales or hire. Things have tailed off since that amazing peak so it is mostly down back to one person that usually has a couple of backups for urgent requirements.
We shut between Christmas Eve and New Years day. Our service can also be patchy during school holidays and we normally put time away on to help manage delivery expectations.
Here's a comment from a buyer of the red bounty chips (no longer for sale):-
"Just a quick email to thank you for the prompt delivery of
all those red poker chips. They arrived safely in two bags on consecutive days.
My reason for purchase is a game called 'Hoplomachus' (only
available on order from the USA). A number of 'gladiators' move around a hex
grid on a large neoprene mat, and are represented by poker chips containing
their titles and statistics. Underneath the gladiatorial chip are a number of
red poker chips indicating health. Whenever a gladiator is injured you remove
one or more chips until he has none left and is 'defeated'. (That's the term
used in the rules. In my mind I think 'dead'.)
It's a good game, but the red chips provided by the game are
flimsy by comparison with the many 'gladiatorial' chips. It didn't feel right
moving a large pile of them around without a bit of heft to them. The newly
arrived chips are a vast improvement in terms of the feel of the game.
Unfortunately the upgraded components don't help me win. I've yet to get past
round two of the thee-round survival I need for victory.
Cheers,
Paul"
