So... I found this epic sale, http://maydey.com Josh *the guy behind maydey* is a great guy and ships fast and packs well, i recommend you hop on this sale if you can. I got 30 decks just saying :).
-
OMFG!! Thank you! I got 6 massas 1 S&M V4 and a red stud for $36!
-
Thanks for the link!! There are some awesome deals there. I would have picked some stuff up but I just made an order for some Big Gun decks today. Check the sale out! There are many decks for 1USD, which is a pretty great deal.
-
Is worth getting stuff from there if you are buying more than 6 decks. For a few the shipping is kinda high
-
For those of you who are looking to get the S&M V4, I would urge you to grab them at this price. It's only going to rise in the future.
Wasn't there someone that was looking for some Massa? There you go!
-
Thanks for the info! It's really tempting to pick up a few of the $1 decks but I wouldn't be getting enough to make the shipping worth it. I'm sure lot's of others will jump on this opportunity.
-
So whats the sale?
-
So whats the sale?
look at the decks, everything is VERY cheap. I am guessing that is the "sale"
-
I could be wrong but the prices don't looks different than the last time I checked them :-\
-
I'm looking to get a couple of the $1 decks, I'm just waiting to get some feedback from Josh on international shipping.
-
the shipping to singapore is about 5 bucks per deck. which makes it even more expensive then buying straight from a seller here. i really hoped that the shipping would be cheaper. the 1 dollar decks and the v4s are really so tempting.

I jumped at the $1 decks and v4s and signed up but then I saw the shipping.. >:( $17.60 for three decks!!! >:(
sieg, you from singapore too? Nice to meet you :)
-
I ended up only ordering 1 V4 and 2 massas because of shipping. Anything more that 3 decks was $33 to canada!
-
Trying to order 10 Bricks... Won't let me check out... Lowered the amount... Still no good... Anyone experiencing any problems???
-

yea im not sure what the deal is. cuz the 13.60 international small box shipping fits up to 8 decks. i know this cuz i've had cards shipped in that box twice and it definitely fits 8 decks. u cant fill it with padding but u can still get it in with some bubble wrap.
-
So I'm guessing its around an hour or so later and Josh just got back to me from the website... The reason I couldn't order the Ten Bricks or even the 12 Decks was because there are only (3) Decks Available... Wish I would've found out earlier... SMDH...
-

Was it because of stock issues? When I was looking at it earlier I filled my cart but many of the items were actually out of stock. That's the only issue I had though. I didn't end up buying anything though, so I can't attest for the checkout system only the stock issue
-
I see that pretty much every deck on their site besides the Eco Editions are now sold out.

Yeah well they were priced to sell ;) I would have been surprised if they lasted much longer!! Some of the best prices I've seen on most of those decks ever. Hopefully this is the rice of the 1 dollar deck, with the Big Guns and the many decks Maydey had to offer haha ;)
-
If you guys go into "The Attic" area there is a BG1E for $100 and cheap Jaqks and English Laundry
-

Do you know what version of the Jaqk Cellars those are? I couldn't find any info on the website. Those are some good prices on some older decks! I wouldn't have noticed that if you didn't point it out. Thanks again

yes i am! nice to meet you too!
-
No problem guys. I have no idea what version those Jaqks are. I would assume 2nd ed. because of price but all their other decks are also very cheap so idk. They also have some nice T`shirts for $2.50 each, not sure what the quality would be like but for $2.50 you can`t really go wrong.
-
I made an order and picked up 4 massa's, 3 WPT boarded bee's a black Maydey wristband and a black Dotcom Shirt, all adding up to..... $9!!!!!! and $35 all up so $26 shipping!
-
And 1$ tally ho?
Awesome site!
-
Ya, If only this was the price all the time!
-

What do you mean? Is this limited sale?
-
ya, think so.
-
Anyone know what version of the expert in the card table is?
-
I tried again, most of the things there are out of stock.. that was really fast.. :o
-
I really wanted to get some of the Aladdin decks :(
-
I wanted some Massa's and an Eco-Deck or two, but in order for shipping to pay for itself, I will need to get like 30 decks. That will give me $15 shipping, and I feel $45 for 30 decks is a good deal.
Also, it says they have bulk discounts if you purchase 12 or more of the same deck. Does anyone know if this will apply with this sale?

I don't think so. When I put 14 or more of a deck in my cart it didn't give me any extra discount on top of the sale

That's wt I figured. There would be no point, especially since these are such a steal...I just with they hat some of the Richard Turner Gold Seal's left.
-
Josh Brand tweeted, "Currently, there are only 39 Vintage Tangent (Red), 1 Vintage Tangent (Blue), 1 Eco Edition, 5 Massa, 3 Stud (Blue) Left."
(he is the owner of maydey)
-
No more Massa's. I bought the last five...along with two shirts...and ten bracelets...$15 for all of that was a steal.

Any clue why they were clearing out all their stuff? A sale is one thing, but they are straight up clearing shop... :o
-
what was the price on the laundry deck? :-[

IIRR, about $17.5.

Those massas would've been mine if he had a better checkout method that didn't force me to email him and either wait for a reply or pay over $30 shipping. :-[

Got my 30 decks today and they were packaged perfectly and got to me fast. If you guys haven't gotten your packages yet you will soon :).

What decks were they?
A brick of massas, 6 decks of eco edition bikes *was going to get richard turner bikes but man those sold out fast*, 7 decks of red WPT bees, and 6 decks of blue vintage tangent back playing cards.
-
Wow, nice pick up! I too also was going to get Richard Turner bikes, but they were sold out for me as well.
-
Has anyone got a shipping or order confirmation?

For whatever reason josh doesn't use shipping slips he hand writes all the packages he sends so no one will get them. But according to him most packages were sent out on friday.
-
Does he not use extra padding in the boxes? Mine were just sitting in the box. Fortunately none of the decks were damaged, it's just weird.

Could you explain more?
-
The decks weren't wrapped in anything, no bubble wrap, no paper, just sitting in the box free to rattle around.
It's not that big of a deal to me but others might want to know.

Ok thanks. I`ll probably get mine in a couple weeks here in canada. :(

How many decks are what size was the box?
-
4 decks in a small flat rate box.

Alright ill let josh know about that so he can package stuff better in the future.
For the record my 30 decks were bubble rapped in brick boxes.
-
I have to say I am very disappointed. I ordered 21 decks: a brick of massas, and 9 other decks. My decks arrived very quickly in a big box, but:
1) My brick of Massas wasn't protected in any way, and both the brick box and the boxes of the decks were damaged. As for the cards themselves, I haven't seen yet.
2) My other decks came in a brick of mixed Tally-hos, in bubble wrapping. I haven't taken off the bubble wrapping but when I do, I will tell you about it.
This sale was great but I was disappointed by the massas.

Hmmm. I ordered a V4 and 2 or 3 massas. I hope my V4 isn`t damaged
-
@Nathan, I guess the cards were not damaged. Sellers often use Massa's to protect other high price decks, and obviously this seller thought they (Massa's) did not deserve to be bubble wrapped :P :P
-
In this case, I only bought 1$ decks, so I do not see why my brick of massas wouldn't be bubble-wrapped while my other decks should. Do you think I should message them telling them about this?
-

I would if I were you. In fact I take pics when opening all packages I receive.
Message them and see what they will say. Sometimes we don't really want to return the items or ask them to refund partial money, but we want justice. If they are wrong, at least they should apologize to you.
-
So I asked them, and here is what they responded:
"It's unfortunate to hear that some of the goods you purchased were damaged in transit, and most of all the fault is completely mine. I can understand the frustration you must be experiencing with your order and most likely Maydey.com in general. However, I will continue to strive to reach total satisfaction with each and every customer I come into contact with. With regards to your current order, I propose a few different options in handling this mishap.
- Full refund for the shipping charges for your order: $16.27
- A Gift Certificate on your next purchase for the value of your order: $36.67
- A full refund & return of your order ($36.67). You must pay the shipping costs for your return of goods.
If you have any additional questions, perhaps taking a look at our Shipping & Returns Policy will help. If not, feel free to contact me with how you would like to handle this unfortunate matter.

That is pretty good service, if I was you I would take the shipping money back.
-
@Nathan, choose full refund for the shipping. The shipping fee was expensive and you don't know if there will be $1 items next time. ;)
-
I would take the shipping and keep the decks! It's a better deal for you. Were the decks totally trashed or are they still in okay condition?
-
I am keeping on keeping the decks. The aren't trashed, they are usable, but they still are in very bad condition. I'm planning on using the option that allows me to keep all of my decks but get a discount of the price of what I bought + my shipping price on their website, giving me 35$ of free stuff. Even if they never have a sale like this ever again, it'll still be worth it because I will get a 35$ discount rather than a 16$ discount for shipping. Anyways, I asked them if they would ever get some decks back (other than the ones in the attic) and also if the 35$ discount included shipping.
Thanks for your help, you guys,
Nathan

That is a pretty good deal, You could pick up that Black Ghost 1st ed. for like $65 bucks :)
-
I'd go with option B! They have plenty of stuff there, and I'm sure they will have sales in the future! With that money you could order:
-Magic
-Flourishing
-Rare Decks from "The Attic"
-14 t-shirts
-72 bracelets ;D
The choice is yours...choose wisely. 8)

I am going with Option B, and he is giving me additional free shipping.

Chances are good! I got my package in and out of my 5 Massa's:
-Three had crushed boxes
-One had the front of the box completely crushed in
-One didn't have ANY cellophane, was crushed, and had an open seal

:o :o [size=78%] That is pretty bad. I really hope my V4 isn`t wrecked though[/size] :(
-
I thought the same thing at first, but unfortunately there isn't much on left on their website since their sale. And a brick of my cards were greatly damaged!

Haha. You should contact their customer service! For me, all had cellophane and were unopened, but my brick box and the boxes were greatly damaged. Normally, your rarer decks should be undamaged!
-
damn, I am worried now. Mine have to come pretty far up to canada and I have a rarer decks in there. Whatever I will probably take a gift certificate if my stuff is wrecked.
-
I don't think you should worry because my rarer decks were protected, and anyways you can get a refund for all your damaged decks.
-
Reading this thread makes me unsure if I should feel lucky or not.
-
Why is this company having so much trouble with shipping? It's making me think that I should forget about this company and not order from them.
-
This wasn't my first time ordering from them but it was my first time having trouble. The issue was that they had many many MANY orders on the same day, and, in their hurry to ship quickly, they didn't carefully protect some decks. Other than that, they are pretty trustworthy.
-
You guys should really check out their cheap but awesome magic and cardistry tricks!
-
This company has very good customer service. They helped me out, and were very kind to me!
Don't let these mishaps keep you from purchasing from there!
-
I totally agree ^^ and this is what i was trying to express above!
-
Wow, this is one of the best services I have seen for a card company :o I mean in terms of making up for their mistakes in both words and extra services they beat the rest hands down ;)
-
Yes. And they go out of their way for this to work. I contacted them and thanked them.
-
Hello all,
Just got word from Nathan about this forum. I'd first like to say that I am truly thankful that someone would make it publicly known that their order from my website did not arrive as expected. I've been shipping out orders since 2009 to a great number of customers both new and old - returning and one-time buyers. You guys make it such a joy to provide this service to you. This is the first time since then I've had problems with shipments, and for good reason too! Several orders flowed through to me mid-week last week. So many in fact, I had no choice but take work off on Friday to try and get all of the orders out in a timely manner. Because of this, some of the orders were not packaged properly, which can only be the fault of mine. I understand the negativity this may arouse amongst existing and potential customers. Don't fret - it won't happen again (unless the Postal Service loses your order)!
As of now, what you see on the store front is what you get - we were wiped clean of our in stock products until further notice.
Once again, thank you for voicing your opinions, concerns and praises. I hope to continue to deliver great products and unbeatable prices in the near future.
Thank You Aether Community,
Josh

Josh,
Thanks for joining us! Really the customer service has raised much reputation for maydey.com and please do let us know if you are to stock in with other products! I'm sure many of us here will go back for more.

I bought one of these because I needed a sealed one to match the sealed blue WPT Bee I've had for who knows how long. I would have been pretty upset if they weren't Cincinnati decks.

The way I keep hearing it from people, that feeling about the Massas won't last long. They might do better with infrequent handling and trying to keep them from getting too warm. Also, they have a cool one-way back, in that it's easy enough to spot if you look, but the pattern is so simple that most people won't even think to look!

I saw that one way it is pretty sweet. Also for $1 the handling is pretty damn good, I don`t know what the durability will be like but I'll see. Also are massa made by USPCC? idk if it was answered somewhere else but idk.
-
It's not by produced by USPCC, instead a company called Casino Playing Cards Ltd.
-
well it doesn`t handle that bad, why don`t more small companies print through them?
-

The reason Massas got so cheap is that they don't last. No one wants a costly deck that wears out quickly. At this point, it's like clearance prices. I only paid $2 a pack for mine last month from (shudder) Merz67.
-
I was bored and decided to check out their site but it seems like they are no more. for those of you who have had gift certificates as compensation for your damaged goods, have you claimed them?
-
Hmm, that is very peculiar. I will try yo see if I can contact them to see what is going on, after all, I have $30 store credit there.
-
Guys, need a little help here, I tried going on the site and it told me that the site has been suspended.
Any change to the website address?

That's exactly what I said. Haha. Lucky I dont have anything outstanding or any credits with that site. If not I might be pissed. Let's hope the owner comes here to rectify the prob.Ben here btw :)
@loldudex2 hope u get a response.
-
That's really weird. I also had a store credit I believe... I am contacting them.
-
Here is the rapid response I just got:
"No worries on the status of the site. There was just a minor error in processing the payment to renew the server. Should be back up soon.
Thanks for inquiring,
Josh"
Great news!
-
That is a scarey situation. I didn't have any credits but I was planning on buying from that site. Let's hope he gets everything straightened out.
-
Friends,
I'm back up. There was a small billing issue with the server. No worries for those who have credits!
Thanks,
Josh

Yay! So, do you have any plans on selling more decks?
