We will be closed over the holiday weekend (of course the website is up 24-7.) We appreciate all of our customers and truly do wish you a very Merry Christmas today.
We at Wholesale Chess hope this day of days brings you all you hope for in peace and joy (and a little turkey or ham, too!)
One of our Israeli customers once said he hoped the time would come that all 
of our battles would be fought over a chess board. That thought touched us. I suppose if we could give you just one gift, that’s what it would be–that all your life battles would be played-out over a chess board.

Wholesale Chess Gift Cards are the best answer. They will be delivered to your email before Christmas so you can print them out so no one will know you were late with their gift. They can be used for any chess set, chess clock, chess computer, chess board, or chess pieces on our site. They can even be used for chess software or chess books. The possibilities are almost endless.
Best of all—our $25 gift card is on sale! Thursday only you can get a $25 gift card for just $20. Go to our Chess Gift Card section and choose the $25 card, or a gift in any other amount. We will make sure it is sent to you by midnight Thursday night. (Gift Cards will NOT go out after 10 am Mountain Time on Friday.) Happy Holidays!

For this Deal of the Day you are not limited. You can order one as a gift, or several for your club.
Need that chess set fast for Christmas? Wholesale Chess is paying half of your Expedited UPS shipping charges for the next few days in order to assure your chess gifts get there in time for Christmas. Expedited shipping includes 3 Day Select, Second Day Air and Next Day Air.
Although it is definitely more expensive to use expedited shipping, a chess clock, chess computer, or even most of our folding wood chess sets are reasonable to ship fast with Wholesale Chess paying half the shipping charges.
But don’t delay any longer. It only will get more expensive as the Christmas week goes on. (Click here to see more about when to ship.) After you have selected your chess set, or other chess gift, go to the shopping cart page and enter your zip code to bring up the shipping charges. You will then find the estimated date of arrival and the discounted shipping costs.
And don’t forget, Chess Gift Cards are easy, fast (they come by email), and 
your chess friends can get just what they want!
