Thank you. That makes so much more sense. I'm using my Mom's PayPal so that's why I haven't gotten shipping info.

danktrees · « **Reply #327 on:** March 05, 2012, 03:36:24 PM »

just curious, how many people have backed out of the orders so far due to the shipping charges? i'm still undecided at the moment.

Possibly! I haven't seen the shipping yet though, so I may not, but I most likely will get a few.

danktrees · « **Reply #330 on:** March 05, 2012, 04:57:30 PM »

they quoted me 61 dollars air mail and 81 dollars ems for 2 bricks. when i asked them how much for 1 brick they said it can ONLY be shipped via ems for 66 dollars. i'm calling bs on that. and u guys thought skulkor were sketchy lol.

Knobz1 · « **Reply #331 on:** March 05, 2012, 05:05:06 PM »

Im still undecided. Just cant justify spending that much for shipping. I might pass. Plenty of great decks coming out this year to look forward too.

cosmicsecret · « **Reply #332 on:** March 05, 2012, 05:11:55 PM »

Well,i send them a reply on the shipping quote they have send me (73USD for a brick to germany via EMS)
I reduced my order to 6 decks and asked for a new quote for that.
If this gonna be so overpriced again...then i will wait for resellers.
Sorry but this is nuts paying soo much for shipping and in worst case scenarios additional taxes/customs.

loldudex2 · « **Reply #333 on:** March 05, 2012, 05:33:22 PM »

I would wait for resellers, but who knows how much they will sell for, and for the fact that I want some signed decks.

Aaron · « **Reply #334 on:** March 05, 2012, 05:54:11 PM »

wow. Mana had a big fan base and would have sold alot of decks if the didn`t have these prices (high deck price+High Shipping=Terrible Idea)

zaganh · « **Reply #335 on:** March 05, 2012, 07:12:03 PM »

i backed out once i saw shipping it was almost the price of the decks ><

phantom1412 · « **Reply #336 on:** March 05, 2012, 11:43:32 PM »

They are sold out!

Gunshy1 · « **Reply #337 on:** March 06, 2012, 12:05:37 AM »

i wonder if they put up the entire amount for the pre orders

kensei777 · « **Reply #338 on:** March 06, 2012, 12:09:29 AM »

Nope. They were sponsored by a distributor here in the Philippines so part of the production is going to them to sell in their stores for a dollar more than the pre-order price.

shutupdangit · « **Reply #339 on:** March 06, 2012, 12:13:51 AM »

I only want two decks and shipping is $15 to the US. I'm still undecided if I want to go through with it.

This is the automated response i got from them...

Dear Valued Customer,
While we understand your concerns about the shipping cost, it is unfortunate that we cannot do anything about these rates as they are given to us by the local post office here in the Philippines.

However, having said that, we are more than happy to direct you to a US dealer (the1eyedjack.com) who has just ordered from us through this pre-order sale. This could very well save you on a lot of shipping costs. And while your current purchase is secured here, we give you the option to either continue your purchase with us or wait until the US dealer receives their stock of the Mana deck at a later date. The choice is yours.

Either way, we are happy that you have confirmed with us, but understand if you wish to cancel your order with us and wait for the1eyedjack.com to receive their stock.

Thank you very much for your support!
Best regards,
Erik Mana

I'm calling BS, that, or Erik has zero business skills in finding cheaper shipping. There are better options. I'll be ordering (less) locally, and not get scammed.

Aaron · « **Reply #341 on:** March 06, 2012, 12:48:27 AM »

I might pick up 2 from the 1eyedjack. It will be more for the deck but I will end up saving money because of shipping costs.

Agreed with russell! There's always alternative to cheaper shipping cost, like how all other big companies do!
1eyedjack? doesn't he overprice some of the decks?

digipunk · « **Reply #343 on:** March 06, 2012, 12:49:24 AM »

The one eyed Jack is a good guy, but he always overprices his decks. I may imagine Mana will soon become a $18-20 deck

I bet he will put them at $15. And if you buy 2 @ $15= $30 + $10(ish shipping to canada) Then it is about the same price.

I really think he is kind enough if his price is $18-20, after looking at his be@rbrick: http://www.the1eyedjack.com/servlet/the-452/Bearbrick-Deck/Detail

Wow Im sorta mad I missed these the backs look amazing!

dmbaggs · « **Reply #347 on:** March 06, 2012, 01:16:00 AM »

I honestly don't think the savings will be that much. Here's some math

from Mana's site: 8 decks plus shipping to U.S.

(8)8.95 + 44 = $115.60

from 1EJ assuming eh sells them at MSRP: 8 decks plus shipping to the U.S.

8(10.95) + 15 = $102.60

Those are just some numbers. They are not 100% accurate. I don't know what the price 1EJ will set them at and what the shipping will be. You save a little if he sells them at MSRP with good shipping but if it's more than that then it won't really matter.

Also I would expect there to be a mad rush at 1EJ anyways. What do you all think?

walther · « **Reply #348 on:** March 06, 2012, 01:19:19 AM »

Sounds like 1eyejack is anticipating about $20 (Just got an reply from him). For me it seems much better to buy direct.

1eyedjack
3 decks at $20 + $5 Shipping = $65

direct from mana
4 decks at 9.95 + $28 shipping = $68

Mago · « **Reply #349 on:** March 06, 2012, 01:44:04 AM »

yeah if does are the 1 eye jack prices then the website was the best option. Thank fully i was able to get 3 deck's at retail price with good shipping. These decks will be 20 at least.
