I made an agreement with Jonathan to purchase some cards, totaling around 200 dollars. He said he would ship them out on Wednesday September 3rd and as of today, October 3rd, I haven't received anything. Over the past week, I have sent an email and a text message but haven't heard anything. I understand if a personal issue came up, but I would at least like to be aware of it. Also, I believe he lives in New York and I live in Indiana so I don't think shipping would take this long. Just thought you all should be kept in the loop.

Im in a similar situation as you, except that mine was about 2 weeks ago, and i havent heard back from him in the past week.

JMRock got back to me a couple of days and the package arrived today =)

Don what are you smoking ? Are you saying that you can spot a flipped card in a deck with a without a mircoscope and a ton of time on your hands ? You are better off working on the border differences caused by printing.

Isnt the saying "If its too good to be true, it probably is."

Is it worth the risk ? Im not answering that question for you, ask yourself.

Nope i dont have any to recommend, but im sure there are, in fact shouldnt the factory have some contacts on its own ?

Would you guys consider having a distribution facility from Taiwan itself to cater for the Asian community?

I'll take my chances, don't need to pretend to be someone that I'm not! I don't like the comment so I answer how I felt it was the right thing, but thank you for the heads up. Like I said I'll take my chances.

Your chances are not good to say the least. This is not my place to dish out critcism, its a different story if you come to my homeground. But yea, realll classyy, if you dont care about the consumers, why would the consumers care about you?

What is the difference between these and the Whispering imps V2 with the minimalist back? Looks like the same amount of effort was put into both but the opinions are night and day.

I'll give it to Mark Stutzman (I assume he designs everything for Whispering Imps?) for the Imps logo but these very different opinions of two decks that use basically the same style is mind boggling to me.

Oh look at all the response of the Rounders & Fontaine decks. People are claiming that its their favourite deck. Honestly people are just buying into the "fame" factor of Madison and the whoever, there really isnt anything else to it.

Yup this just reinforced the notion that BC didn't have the decency to produce these decks at a half decent printer. Ok enough flogging of the dead horse, everyone can make their own conclusion about what happened here.

Actually, BC could have easily resolved this whole issue by having a relationship with a small decent printer like MPC to get them to sponsor the decks, and have a simple note to where the decks were produced for a greater exposure for the printer. A mutually beneficial relationship. But instead people just got this piece of crap.

Well i wouldnt put someone who has just shelfed out $50 on two decks to be biased towards a company, would you ?

"not meant for high-level usage" doesnt translate into "Cheap cardboard cards. Dollar Store quality" for me. So I really dont think you can say people got what was advertised.

Im just quoting exactly whats been said, dont shoot the messenger.

Im through with arguing with you with regards to any issue involving the BC, you have been defending them from day 1. All the way through the Gold Crown issues, the Altruism screw up, and who knows what else ive forgotten.

Edit: HEY VICTOR ! IM FIGHTING WITH YOU FOR THE MOST DOWNVOTED POSTER ON THIS FORUM !

I think what seb meant was that yes, he wasn't expecting uspcc quality, but he clearly wasn't expecting cardboard quality as well. Makeplayingcards, and other small printers have been known to be able to produce small runs that actually feel  and handle like playing cards instead of cardboard. If blue crown can't be bother to pay for a $5 deck of cards (we checked makeplayingcards) and has to put out $2 crap even tho the price point is set at $25, are you still going to give them credit ?

Seb expected a honda civic but got a go-cart, simple as that. So much for thinking about your customers eh.

Update?  At least once a month would be nice...  Active projects can be seen at your sister site:  http://www.unitedcardists.com/viewtopic.php?f=37&t=2158

Evidently you do not know how to read. If you look at the last time I updated it, I said I was not going to be able to continue with it. Don has enough going on with the transition of ownership, and taking care of being the Admin. 

I'm sorry if I haven't been able to keep this up to your standards, but the truth of it is. I had to leave my family and home, and move back in with my Mother. I'm trying to help her be as comfortable as possible, as I watch her dying of cancer.
I've got a suggestion for you. Instead of complaining. Step up to the plate and take it over, or shut the fuck up!

You and victor make a great pair. You two should start a card forum together.

Well thats bloody harsh, I dont see the poor bloke lashing out at you. The situation might be bad at home, but no need to vent your anger at someone simply asking if there are any updates.

No one got my first pic correct :o

Pit Hartling deck

To me, the key difference does not lie in whether its a full-transformation deck, or a semi-transformation deck. To me it is rather whether the pips are used meaningfully, or simply added on after the fact to make it a transformation deck. The design should definitely revolve around making the graphics work with the pips, rather than simply adding in pips here and there after the fact. There is a vast difference between the two.

Comparing this deck and Emmanuel's decks, we can see the stark contrast with what i just highlighted. Emmanuel's decks are simply in a different world, there is no argument against that.

I think the borders work much better, esp with the queen coming out of the border.

I like the idea, and how the cartoonish artwork works for me. Are there anything special for the courts cards to differentiate them a little?

Copenhagen => Colourful => Nyhavn ?

P,s. I think St. Petersburg needs to be near the top of your list.

22
Hmm, where are the courts from this deck coming from, im pretty sure ive seen them before..

Edit. Nevermind, i think i saw them from the creator's profile picture.

This is brilliant news, cant wait to see what new content the old guys can bring to the new XD
