Focus On Innovation
Columbia Sales has focused on innovative ways to produce NEW and EXCLUSIVE novelty ticket games. We manufacture a variety of “TIPS” that are played on boards, placed in jars & loose in bags (using a flare card with seal). We make them in “pasted 5’s & pasted 10’s”(that’s 5 or 10 tickets glued together in one pull off board, or in jar or bag). You’ll find our products sold on Amazon, eBay & Etsy (sold online by distributors/private parties, NOT SOLD ONLINE BY COLUMBIA SALES INC.) HOURS OF OPERATION; MONDAY-THURSDAY 8AM-3PM, FRIDAY BY APPOINTMENT ONLY. For pricing on our products, email us at adam@columbiasalesinc.com
Sure Tip Boards
Our “Sure Tip” tip boards are most easily described as a self contained raffle. Every Tip on the board has a chance to win; however, there are many other ways to play a sure tip board. Email Adam at Adam@columbiasalesinc.com for inquiries.

Regular Tip Boards
Regular tip boards use a combination of two numbers printed on the inside of the opened ticket. If one of those two numbers matches the “tip” number printed on flare card, you hold that “tip”. If the number under the bullseye seal matches the second number on your “tip” you win!
