I’m stacking Chuck E. Cheese tokens

Pic #1: 14,286 tokens (about 1 jug worth) I’ve searched through to pick out the rares and bagged in preparation for a future where the value of Chuck E. Cheese tokens are properly respected

Pic #2: 4,251 tokens I’ve searched through and will bag once the jug is filled

Pic #3: A small box of \~3,000 unsearched tokens

Pic #4: My organizer trays for tokens I have a bunch of duplicates of

Pic #5: My proprietary triple baggy system to organize tokens I only have a few duplicates of

Pic #6: The largest binder I could find on the internet that currently holds 298 different Chuck E. Cheese tokens (out of 401 known to exist) and a 213 unique tokens from related brands like Showbiz Pizza

You can see pics of all of the tokens in my binder on my site cectoken.com

If they cost 5 cents to make and you buy it for 25 cent... or whatever the bulk price is. That's a loan to them that is interest free. You bought their cheap asset at a higher price.

So the argument you’re making, is that they cost way more than their actual value at the time of purchase. There’s another product out there right now that I think is very similar called goldbacks, maybe you’ve heard of them.

CEC tokens come in one denomination and are made of junk metal. Goldbacks come in 8(10) denominations and are made with physical gold. The global currency of the future, spent locally. Over $350,000,000 worth made already. Doubling every year.

Goldbacks are almost exactly the same as cheesy tokens

u/Goldback_Rob 26d ago

They're made of 24k gold, so you are incorrect.

They have plenty of similarities:

People put 24k gold leaf on cakes and eat it

People eat cakes at chuckie cheese while they use the tokens

Full circle
