Hi All, I am willing to buy a dozen or two, both red and blue of BICYCLE PLAYING CARDS DECKS, with air cushion finish

I am living in Greece, so shipping cost is a big issue
eBay trusted sellers, individuals, online stores,.... etc etc that you could recommend to me are more than welcome

Thanks in advance

Well, if you go on eBay and check their feedback, you can judge by that on how trusted they are

  • Pick a card, any card...no, not THAT card!

We have a few retailers listed in the Retailer Coupon Codes sticky topic in the Sales, Trades and ISOs board.  The ones in Great Britain and France are your best bet for a decent deal on shipping - but you have the drawback of paying Customs twice, in effect; once when it arrives in the retailer's country, again when it arrives in yours.

Consider not just eBay but also Amazon.com.  Just observe carefully what is being charged for shipping - some places are better about it than others.

On eBay, try fullboatdealer and pokerstud52.  But first, check that Retailer Coupon Codes list again - some offer deals if you buy from them direct rather than using their eBay store.

Thanks for the mention Robert.

Don - customs are not charged to customers from EU countries when they purchase and import from another EU country.

Very good to know!  Thanks.  There you go, G_K, another reason to buy from one of the European retailers, such as JP's own site: http://jpplayingcards.co.uk/ - many of our members have had happy ordering experiences with him.  Use the coupon code AETH10 for 10% off your first order, limited to playing cards only and purchases of at least UK£50.

  • I am generally strange
@G_K It's worth it, JP gives no hassle at all and is really helpful, I've ordered a lot off him and am doing so again soon :)

Are you located in Greece as per your thread starter? :) If so, here's a quick run-down just in case you missed it. I'd love some feedback if you have a moment (PM on here on the thread) as to where you feel it's a little too expensive as for 90% of our EU orders we charge customers less than it costs us.

Standard EU Airmail - £2.99 for orders under £10, £5.99 up to £60, and free over £60. (for insurance purposes this is not available for orders over £100).

Insured EU Airmail - £9.99 whatever the size of the order - one deck costs us this amount to send recorded as Royal Mail charge a fortune in the UK to send recorded and insured. But order £300 worth of decks and it's still only £9.99.

Benny - thanks for the mention, again it is VERY much appreciated. Thank you :)
