Alex, how does this differ from your Holiday Sale?

Less discounts for an unlimited amount of time, some prices are higher and some prices are lower, different offerings, and that's about it. The Holiday Sale is over. :)

Okay, a few questions:

What is the Bicycle Remmington Deck?
How are you shipping the Brick Boxes?
What signed cards are you giving out?
Title: Re: Alex's PLAYING CARD Shop!
Post by: xela on December 18, 2011, 02:22:07 AM
1. It's a Bicycle Remmington deck - I have no idea what's inside since it's sealed. It's a legitimate Bicycle deck, and on the back of the box it shows some of the cards, and it looks like you can use it for standard poker games or magic.

2. They're going to be filled with packing paper, and then placed into a box with more paper surrounding them.

3. Either a card from my first deck review of the WSOP, a signed Vintage New Fan Back, or a signed Vortex Protodeck card. Completely random.

Alex, is THIS what the Remington deck looks like?

http://www.amazon.com/Remington-Arms-Playing-Cards-Single/dp/B001YJYJ1C/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top/175-1948808-0271369

If it is, it's an ad deck made by USPC for Remington Arms, maker of fine hunting rifles and shotguns.  It's like the Budweiser Aviators or the Coca-Cola Bicycles.

God international shipping is a pain... You're in the US, right?
I would still save money by buying decks from different companies all in the same place, so I'll see once I clear some of my credit card... The aristocrats have been tempting me recently, and I need fultons and maybe a couple more Infinity... etc... ::) Too bad you don't have any crown decks though

I wouldn't resell things for a loss. Believe it or not, these sales are the reason I have an insane collection for a fraction of the price of what it costs to get 'em.

Now... if T11 gave away more White Centurions I may be inclined to get one of their current products.

Hey guys, a couple notices:

- Many prices are slashed. You can see which by looking for the red price tags.
- Two new items added, Black Crowns & vintage Caesar's Palace decks.
- I'm back in town! Holiday Sale orders will be shipped this week, orders from this shop shipped next week, and after that I should be all caught up and all orders should ship within 48 hours at that point.

I just received mine as well, everything was great, except for one thing. It's nothing major, but something bizarre. It's just that I received a few extra cards along with my order which were unexpected. That's all it really is. In addition, I will to be uploading a video on Youtube in a while. Thanks!

My package arrived, but I think there was a slight slip up.  Did I request one each of the Tally Ho gold border circle backs: one red (opened), one blue (sealed)?  I got two reds; one opened, one sealed.  It's not a game changer, but I just wanted to be certain about what I ordered.

My invoice has you down for:

1 Archduke Eagleback Set - Opened    
1960's Arrco Crown Set    
1 Arrco Tahoe Reprint LTD deck    
Tally-Ho Gold Trim Set
Aristocrat 727 Reprint Set

I believe in the sale itself it stated that the set includes one opened and one sealed deck.

That's it - I thought the Tallys were in both colors!


It's cool - I love me my Tallys and I just got some of the blue in the mail today.  The real trick would be getting the Maeda versions, in red and LIGHT blue (and not needing a bank loan to do it)!

Are there gold-trimmed Tallies in blue as well? I honestly thought they only came in red.

Also, for those of you wondering about Kpop's issue, I accidentally sent him two signed cards instead of one, so he got an extra little bonus in his package if you can call it that.  :)

The gold trimmed Tallys come in four versions: there's red and blue for US sale, and red and light blue made especially for Maeda with a custom joker.  The light blue looks awesome, but the Maeda models are VERY expensive here, light blue in particular.  While Bikes are commonly found in different colors, Tallys aren't usually seen in more than red and blue (and black, in magic shops).

Gang, just an FYI - there's an item Alex is selling that will be going out of print very soon.

Ellusionist is ceasing production on the Tally Ho Viper Fan Backs (the all-silver model, no red pips).  That was the deck I got a brick of from Jason Brumbalow last year as a donation to the kids I entertain at the hospital.

If you want them, get them now before they become a collector's item.  They're all UV-500 Air Flow.

As far as I know, just that one.  I'm assuming the all-silver version didn't sell as well since it's a less-practical deck, despite having a lovely appearance making it cool to flourish.  I think they're also killing off the all-white Black Tigers for much the same reason.  I remember seeing it posted in an article on their blog about a half-year ago when they were discussing what decks were still available in the old UV500 format.  Those two were listed as still available, but not to be replaced by Air Cushion or Performance Coating - they were ceasing production on them.

Okay cool! Thanks for the heads up. I wasn't sure if the deck was going to be entirely cut from production or just the color haha. Glad I got that one cleared up. I figured it was the same as the black tigers, but I wasn't sure.

Post by: xela on February 02, 2012, 09:53:37 PM
Update: I added two new decks to the shop. The Cartamundi Marlboro decks are extremely hard to find and are absolutely gorgeous. They come wrapped in cellophane and have a very unique one-way back design and a very slick and durable tuck box. The 1980s Marlboro Texan decks are very rare and out of print. They have a very unique and amazing smooth finish on them that is identical to the one on the Virginia Slims, however these are printed on a thicker stock.

Now, to address your question Frost:

First off, it has only been a couple days since you made the payment, not seven. Second of all, spamming all my inboxes with the same message over and over again makes me ignore you longer so I can address the emails of people who have common courtesy and respect (it takes time to go through each one of your 30 or so messages).

Finally, I ship out orders every Friday and update tracking numbers throughout the weekend.

I'm making a humble request, Frost, that you cease spamming my inbox on here, my email, and my Facebook. I'm a one-man-army doing this all on my own, and having to go through all of your messages that are duplicates of one another wastes a lot of my time that I could spend more productively for AetherCards. Furthermore, I responded to your question twice through other outlets and you continue to spam me with the same question.

You send me your first "I payed seven days ago" message about three days after you payed. What are you getting worried about? I ship loads of packages every week with no issues so far, and all of a sudden I choose to scam you out of a small purchase? Do you honestly think I would trade in my reputation, business and relationships for an extra $30?

My problem isn't your worry, it's how you handle it. I have at least 10 PMs on this forum from you, several emails, and Facebook messages as well as posts on the board.

Frost, stop for a second.

Breathe.  Inhale deeply, then let it all out.

In this deal, you have no reason to fear.  Alex has proved his trading reliability over and over, and you are not getting ripped off.  He's one guy, and the playing card store isn't the only thing he's got going on at the moment.

Alex answered you in a public forum because you chose to bring the issue up in the same public forum.  If you want something to stay private, don't post it for the world to see.

It can be difficult for someone who is young, but be patient.  Your patience will be rewarded.  I'm not so young and I still have difficulty at times being patient, but I strive to get better with each opportunity.  This is your opportunity.  Strive.

And lay off the keyboard for a while.  That can't be good for your wrists.

Now smile, and remain calm.  :))

Frost, I welcome people messaging me, and if I exclude you, I have to go through at least 25 messages a day from various customers and the like. In the future, feel free to message me about anything, but when you message me the same thing over 15 times in the span of two days, I will simply ignore you while I deal with more respectful people who deserve a prompt reply.

And like Don said, I posted this publicly because you brought it up here. I would prefer people not think I am scamming members when so far 100% of the people that bought items here have been generally satisfied.

Well it's the real-deal Golden Nugget (none of that Atlantic City stuff) and they typically sell for $90-150 on eBay. The cards have a very unique back design that I personally like, and they're very well crafted vintage decks.

Also, guys, I offer to wrap all decks in the shop that are typically unwrapped.

Alex, I sent an email to make some purchase from you but I left out a detail, I will actually be requiring domestic shipping. Thank you.

Yeap, that was me alright. Anyway, I just paid. Thank you for the smooth transaction! Just a small request though, could you please send me a price breakdown of the purchase to my email? Thanks again!

Sorry for not updating on time, guys. I stepped away for a few hours and when I came back I had several requests for the D&D decks. I guess I priced them too cheaply? Oh well, haha. I got them for free because of a mix up months ago and I have no room on my shelf for 'em.

Phantom, four of the decks you wanted are out of stock - perhaps there is something I can sub in? If not I can drop you the invoice without them. I'll be going to sleep in a bit, so let me know.

 I sent him 2 messages as well since i bought from him on the sale and no reply as well. I'm assuming he's busy with vortex? But yeah, some update would be good.

Post by: phantom1412 on March 01, 2012, 11:47:43 AM
I bought something at the sales too.
He told me he ships every Saturday.
But, the package doesn't reach me yet too.
However, it's not 2 weeks if you count from Last last Saturday.

@Alex, I'd like to know if you shipped the packages already?

You should try pming him if you haven't already. He probably hasn't noticed this or hasn't had the time to answer.

He also never replied one message I sent January 21 and another message I sent February 23.

I guess he is good only to promote his stuff in several forums but don't care much to answer people , lol

@Alex please tell us when did you ship the items.

I've had absolutely no time to even log on and read posts here. I make a few when necessary or when I just randomly click one of the latest posts.

All packages that were ordered during the sale were shipped out 2-8 days ago, and I haven't had time to throw in tracking information. If you are international, tracking info only helps until the package leaves US soil, and as far as I know I shipped all the international packages first about a week ago so they're definitely well off now.

Sorry for my absence and lack of communication. If you frequent the boards you'll eventually stumble across what is going on that I can't be around to service you guys as usual. Keep in mind this is all a one-man operation, and besides the card shop I have two decks, legal matters, financial matters and shipping matters to cover as well as marketing and development.

 Glad that you took the time to respond after nearly 3 weeks have past.
 You should had informed us either in your 1st card shop posting
 or directly during the order that you are currently busy.Would had made the things alot easier for us all.
 About handling soo many different projects at the same time,well maybe you have a tough time....everybody of us has to handle our own stuff (work from 9 to 5,girlfriend,hobbies etc.) Thats a bad excuse,sorry if i sound harsh....its just critic.
 I do want the tracking number of my parcel please.German DHL is able to track the parcel as soon as it hits the border.
 Thank you
