I'm going to be honest, i'm an extremely lazy man and if this question has been answered already i'm sorry. But can someone please answer the following questions for me:

How long does it take to ship from china to new jersey?
Do we get a tracking number?
Do we get a shipping confirmation.

Thats about it, thanks!

If you ordered from the Coterie, it was a pre-order - it hasn't shipped yet.  That will be sometime next month.  Arrival is perhaps two weeks or less, but it's a variable.  If you contact the staff there, I'm sure they'd be glad to track it since all the overseas packages are sent by Registered Mail.  And while it's sort of part of China, Hong Kong is also sort of something else.  It's under Chinese control but has a certain degree of autonomy, sort of like the connection between the United States and the U.S. Virgin Islands or Guam...

Next month? On the page it says January 21st.

...and Zenneth has since said there was a delay in getting the cards and they wouldn't ship until next month.  It's about a page back in this topic.

I'm beginning to wonder if anyone here still reads...  :))

I told you i'm an extremely lazy man, so obviously you didn't read what i had to say either :P.

And you still didn't answer my original 3 questions :P

Oooooh-kaaaaaay...

To which I ask
Why do you need a shipping confirmation?  That's something the shipper usually asks for!  You want to know when the shipment was received?  Ask the postal carrier before he or she hands it to you!  Be prepared for some quizzical looks...  :))

You can't possibly be THAT lazy!  If so, how are you pressing the keys on the keyboard?

Welcome to the human race, bro.  :))

If you order from CARC, I think they ship from New York - faster arrival.  Or did you already order at the Coterie?

Well I'm hoping CARC will get them soon and put them up for sale! Here's hoping for them to be as affordable (or close to) as offered by Coterie! I'm really regretting not purchasing them from Coterie when I had the chance :(

They will be cheaper than Coterie. Because of shipping costs, maybe not if ordering 1 deck, but if you will be getting 4+ you save cash.

Wow! That's a little sooner than was speculated in earlier posts in this thread. The price is not too bad and if shipping is the normal on CARC ($2 for domestic USA) then it comes out to just barely less than sold on Coterie for non-members. Thanks for the info Mr. Boyer!

A little early but: http://shop.conjuringarts.org/store/pc/viewCategories.asp?idCategory=44

Prices are for non-members so obviously members would include discount
Individual decks: 5.95USD plus shipping to wherever
Three deck set: 19.99USD with shipping to US included (elsewhere extra)
Three dozen set: 199.00USD with shipping to US included (elsewhere extra)
One gross set (144 decks): 699.00USD with shipping to US included (elsewhere extra)

Picked myself up two three packs and really excited! Comes out to about the price of any other new deck release but not having to pay for shipping makes it much cheaper (especially compared to E or D&Ds' outrageous shipping charges). Also, for the quality of cards I think this is an excellent deal!

Got a couple 3-packs. pretty glad I waited since I ended up saving about ten bucks, although I kinda wish I got a couple of coteries at a discount since I do eventually want that deck. Oh well, I didn't have 60 bucks to spend last time so it all basically worked out

Yeah I definitely know what you mean. I would love to have gotten a Coterie or two cheaper but waiting for these to be released in CARC did save me ten bucks. Feels great that waiting was a good choice! Looking at the pictures closely, especially the comparison of the edges) makes me feel very excited!

CARC hasn't been able to update its page.

And there are still some legends.... i thought that maybe they would sell out really fast... but 70 minutes later, nothing has happened.


Anyway i hope they send the cards today :)

The only other thing, other than these decks, that I've ordered from CARC is the silver Bicycles they're offering now. For both orders I received an order confirmation quickly after I placed my payment. I used PayPal cause it was easier but I don't know if that makes a difference at all. With my previous order I got a shipping confirmation but no tracking number. Hope this helps!

So 5.50 for each deck (before shipping costs) wasnt that great of a deal for me.

I expected something along the lines of 4.95 or maybe 4 with the bulk discount (before shipping).

A single deck costs 7.95!! its severely high for something that was supposed to have "savings passed to the customer"

So im disappointed in that.

The only good news is that in time the deck costs will increase (lets hope).

Until then, this was a hyped up deck with no real "savings" whatsoever...


Also CARC already sent me a tracking number.... that was FAST

I'm patient enough. I know they'll ship it soon enough! I just can't wait once I get the shipment confirmation!

You could always shoot them an email or call them Frost. I think they're technically still open.

Non-member price of $32 for 3 decks with international shipping (£6.67 per deck)?! No thanks, I'll stick to JPplayingcards thanks - only £5.00 per deck. All I have to do is wait :P
