Yes, if anyone won one in those facebook competitions, you will be receiving it early next week. I should have the decks in a couple days and will be pumping out all the orders through the weekend.


--- shameless self promotion ---


I'm going to push up the Quicksilver (Kickstarter) campaign to Monday Aug 20th.  As always (since I am a collector too), there will be a limited number of decks for $5 each and the price of the uncuts are blow-out low!

Wow, already! That's awesome! I admire you for putting so little hype! And I second the motion demanding another teaser. Anyhow, I can't wait, Russel.

one word. AWESOME. Just got my deck and man, out of the box not to slippery like some deck, and great for fans springs  and spreads. I played around for 20 mins and its still good. Question though, the black cards seemed like they might have been a dark blue not black, is it suppose to be or is it just my eyes playing tricks?
Do you guys even read this? Like I could have the meaning of life here and I doubt you would know it.

I received mine today as well and I am really liking them too!
I'll be doing a review soon.

@John, the spades and clubs are blue and the hearts and diamonds are gold.

that is what i thought. It really hurt my eyes. I will do a review in a week or so after I put this deck through a lot to see how it really stands up.

Recieved my decks yesterday. All I can say is superb job! I would say the wax sealed gilded decks just moved their way into my TOP 3 list!

Thanks munro!


We are still shipping out decks, the 200+ orders from the first day have been shipped out. Orders from the second day are packed up and almost ready to go out. It should go pretty quickly after that.


OK back to 'work' staring at my kickstarter numbers.  ;)

i'm surprised these aren't sold out yet.  Bought a bunch of these decks awhile back and they are some of my favorite cards in both feel and design. Love the off white color and the very simple box design.  Also, nice touch with the bar code and effective use of the ad cards.  I do believe however that the word "Heritage" is spelled wrong...(on the bottom of the box its reads "Herritage")....oops?

Nice catch on the typo - I never noticed that before!

They are great cards.  The Hornets, though, are the last actual deck that's currently in stock there.  Given just a bit more time, I'm sure they'll be sold out as well.

I just bought two then. Mostly because I had some cash and I thought they were sold out but obviously not! I cannot wait to receive these. I have heard great things about them so lets hope they live up to the hype! can anyone tell me if it was worth the $20.05 (including shipping)?

I'd say so.  I'm pretty fond of them.  It's got a real old-school vibe to it going back to the late "tax stamp" era.

The Hornets are absolutely worth buying...I probably would have purchased a couple more just so it's worth the shipping/handling costs (I paid around $6 shipping for 7 decks back in August).  For me it's just not worth buying one or two decks if they have to be mailed to me.  My rule is generally 4 or more.

They really are great though.  I love the design and I really love how they handle.  You'll be satisfied for sure Joshua.

Anybody know of any good resellers with these in stock? I want to pick up 1 with a couple of other decks but I can't seem to find them at a very good price at a lot of places.

I really doubt you'll find anyone selling them as cheap as CCCC does.  Either get yours cheap from them and place a different order elsewhere, or buy them together with the other decks you want from a single shop and consider it a convenience tax or something.  Better still - do a price comparison on both and see which option works out to be the cheapest.

Don't forget to check the bottom of the NDR - y'know, the place where we keep coupon codes for sellers and resellers?  :))

How come the international shipping for 3 decks is expensive? there is a big jump on the price for the shipping when you buy 3 but cheap if you buy 2

When international shipping is charged by the ounce and the average deck minus any packing materials is 3.3 ounces, yes, it can make a difference.

Because paypal only lets you have 5 shipping tears. The jumps are from 2/3 8/9 24/25 etc... The prices are based of of USPS flat rate boxes when shipping more than a couple decks.

We charge for shipping, not handling.  We don't make a dime on the shipping costs.


We are in the (slow) process of getting a real shopping cart which will allow for better rates at the under 8 decks level.
