Before you completely give up hope that someone may be able to help you, you may want to wait a little longer than 2 hours. Not everyone sits in front of their screen like you were apparently doing just reading this board. Some people actually do things outside of this Cafe. Some work, some sleep, and some go out in the mornings.

Wait a little longer, you might get an answer yet. And I'd like some info on this too, I'm looking as well.

More expensive than back home, and you might need a Korean speaker to help you if your language isn't up to snuff, but check this site out:

I ordered the portable poker tabletop from them and was pleased.

Pretty cheap price for a 100 poker chips. You'll need a Korean to help you buy them, as foreigners can't use Gmarket, at least not yet.

Here's a set for under 30,000. It's got 310 chips.

Wow. Quite a strong reply there. Thank you for informing on what other people do in the real world. With all my time living in ESL cyber land I clean forgot. Very informative.
