Re: The Green Man by Jocu Playing Cards - V2 Launching 12th November 19:00 CET

I don't think he's suggesting a reduced rate for late pledge. To me it referred to his earlier statement about people not having funds sorted in time to pay ks. I think Gio did the late pledge thing recently on gentleman thief decks or chaos decks, not sure. I imagine that is what he meant.

Re: The Green Man by Jocu Playing Cards - V2 Launching 12th November 19:00 CET

I don't understand. Is jocu saying there will be price differences for a late tier pledge? Have any of the lower tiers sold out? Why would it take people from higher tiers?

Re: Secret of the Sea by FRIS Cards

JazzBaloo, thanks for your feedback and appreciation. We unfortunately couldn't print with USPCC because their minimum requirement of 2500 decks, it is really impossible for us at this stage in our career. That said, the cards that you are purchasing for 28 are with gold foil, it was really an expe...

Single decks are a bit much for me especially with shipping. I like to save on a bundle but don't want the book. How about 4 deck bundles for standard and gilded that don't include the book?

Re: Dave Stevens' Rocketeer Playing Cards [KS]

Looks interesting. The campaign says nothing about stock, finish, printer. Is there foil on the tuck box or cards? Embossing? Maybe I missed all that. This might still be a win for fans of the comic or movie.

Re: Secret of the Sea by FRIS Cards

I'll wait for a sale that isn't asking 40-45$ for a gilded deck and 28$ for a non gilded. It will be interesting to see how the price of cards may go even higher if tariffs are applied.

Re: High Flyers Playing Cards by Squiddle Ink

The design of the card backs was definitely a strong driving force for this project. I wasn't a big fan of the writing on the court faces because I thought it was overdoing it slightly and taking away some light from the images...but overall, well done.

Is it dependant on which state you're in? Mostly would depend which company and service you have access to but I wonder if state taxes vary greatly to make that kind of difference.

It may be a good idea for wondercraft to figure out some reasonable shipping methods for international customers. Really work on it cause that will definitely without a doubt bolster sales.
