Selling pokerstars play chips

I am very new to this concept, i just recently saw someone advertising to sell there play chips for real money. Now, first off has anyone here done this? Actually before you answer is this actually legal or allowed on pokerstars to sell off your play money chips for real pokerstars money?

Anyways if anyone can shed light on this for me i would appreciate it. Because if it does turn out to be a legal thing, i have a ton of play chips from my early days of playing that i guess i could make a lot of money on. But if its not through pokerstars wouldnt it be easy to get scammed, or is there some system?

Im just really clueless on this whole matter and would appreciate if someone could give me a little summary of it. Thanks

Only thing PS will say is...."if you get screwed by someone dont come and complain to us"

So basically you can do this but at your own risk.

i have done this before. i had a few million play chips a while ago. i say the same thing is worried about ti at first but figured it was only play chips so i had nothing to lose. the place i went through sat at the same table and did a small amount at a time until we got to the point where i was happy. i want to say i got more then $20 for the thing. As being legal, not 100% sure but i dont think it is. i didnt think about it until after the fact. i would read over the poker stars terms again to be save.

when i did it....you could go to the play oney tables and click on a person sitting at the table and transfer play money to them

In fact this act is very legal on PokerStars. Just let me get comfortable and I'll tell you all about it. Be Back in a minute. I'm pregnant so give me a break, lol.

Okay so like I was saying. Selling Pokerstars play chips or full tilt play chips is a very legal thing to do on both sites. I'm emailed support on both. Believe me I know.

The average rate for the sites I have went to is they are willing to buy 1 million chips for 4-7$ a million. If you have twenty million it could be very lucrative to start out your bankroll with.

I would go to one website and one website only to do this.

pokerhex.com

I am not trying to advertise for someone else but of all the websites it's the only one I've come to trust. If you have anymore questions about this just pm me and let me know.

I hope I helped out.

Of course its legal. Its just like transfering your real money, you do it at your own risk, but its not illegal. Not sure why you would want to buy play money. seriously, i dont really play on stars, save for reaching the ten million play chip mark that i think they still have, dont know why youd do it. On another note, maybe ndn or eej can shed some light on this: can we sell money on one site for money on another site. I presume not, cause itd be taking away money from the NDN shop, but i figure that this would be a good time to ask, instead of just posting a thread about it and getting flack. So basically what im saying is, if i proposed to send someone full tilt money for poker stars money, would that fly with the site. I got a feeling that it wouldnt, but i just figured id ask.

wow that is pretty crazy but 1 mil in chips is tough to get. would take me 4ever. i think i will try on FT tonight and see what i can do. i will post back later and let u know where i stand. i am gonna just try it as a experiment.

Good luck Glo. Im pretty sure that full tilt does a 10 mil play chip hall of fame, but dont hold me on it. They got some pretty good promtions and they got play chip games running 24/7 pretty much, so im pretty sure they do. Look it up though, unless youre just doing it for an experiment.
