If you are looking for a good, tournament size, weighted plastic set, you might want to check out, for example, the Zurich series or Marshall series pieces on HoS...

If you are looking for roll-up board (for example to take to a tournament) restrict your choice to vinyl or silicone.  The mousepad boards, while generally fine, are thicker and therefore don't roll up as tightly (in diameter).  Also avoid the very cheapest boards - you get what you pay for...

221B Baker Street. Also, some people say that sentence doesn't appear in any of the books. I can tell you it doesn't appear in the ones I've read.

I'll second The Chess Store.  Their ProTourney sets are nicely weighted (2.5 oz. king).  Also Chess Geeks, they have a 4X weighted set and free shipping.  I own both and am very satisfied.

I'm new. This is my first time posting, and I'm in the same boat as BIG_K_757. I'm looking for a nice chess set at a good price. I've looked on the sites above as well and also on Chessbazaar.
