Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Last week I decided I needed more dice. If you knew how many dice I already had, this statement would make you smile. But I could not decide between the Chessex Pound o' Dice or the Wiz Dice 100+ pack. So I did what any insane gamer would do and I ordered them both! The Chessex Dice: Pound of Dice (Pound-O-Dice) Approximately 100 Die came to 113 dice in the following mix: * 9 d4 * 34 d6 (with pips) * 6 d6 (with numbers) * 7 d8 * 28 d10 (0-9) * 1 d% (d10 with 00-90) * 7 d12 * 14 d20 * And the promised full set (1 of each, 7 total) (white with teal numbers) A good mix of colors and the "stone" colors are quite nice. The quality of the dice seems really good and I can't see any physical defect to make the "seconds." My guess is some of the odd colorations is what made them "not perfect." Looking at the mix of dice, you can see the mix is heavily skewed to d6's... frankly the least desired dice for my collection. Also the "full set" is probably the worst set a person could ask for... white? Really? With UGLY teal numbers? I would have given this purchase a slightly higher ranking if they had at least given a nicer full set and MUCH less d6's. I will definitely use a few of the better colors, and I know I will wish that I had a full matching set. Bottom line is I got 113 dice for $22 which is pretty good On the other hand, the Wiz Dice 100+ Pack of Random Polyhedral Dice in Multiple Colors Plus Free Pouch Set by Wiz Dice pack gave me 110 dice in 16 matching sets of 7. It came with a good mix of colors with some solid and some opaque. I was quite pleased with 3 variations of green (my favorite color). The quality was also good; I see no issues with these dice at all. There are not any of the stone colored dice the came with the Chessex set but the matching sets more than make up for that. Also included is a small pouch for your favorite set. Conclusion: It seems that which set you of dice you purchase has to do with what you are looking for. If you want to get matching sets of dice, I would suggest you go with the Wiz Dice. The colors are not as interesting, but they are matching! If you are looking for a truly eclectic mix (with way too many d6's) then Chessex might be the way to go!
