Jackson said they'll ship in early November.

On his IG, it'll be a Bicycle Americana deck that'll be one of the six decks of his new 2020 subscription.

Anyone heard an update? A bit disappointed this one taking so long, unusual for Jackson and especially not having had an email update.
Especially as these were pre-ordered in June with a 6-8 week delivery timeline.

Yes, the Americana decks from the direct pre-order sale on Kings WIld's website back in June are being shipped this week. Keep in mind that once all the pieces arrive at King's Wild HQ, they have to assemble all the tucks, stuff them, wrap them, and seal them (some at least) before they can start fulfillment. So, with all the other stuff they are fulfilling, things are a bit busy at the HQ lately. But they're shipping out this week.

I know KWP is looking to do some Bicycle decks in the Tally-Ho style (like Americana), but those are starting in 2020 and not the pre-sale Americana decks from back in June.

I received my shipping notification for my order which includes one of the jumbo cases.

Got my std. and ltd. decks 1 week ago. I'm guessing smaller orders went out before the "Jumbo" box.
Move on, nothing to see here.

Btw, I'm seriously interested to know how is KW's aka Nick's communication track records? I'm having inconsistent experiences through the three months as a sub so far.

If Nick isn't responding or your not happy with his response time, email him and telling that, you won't hurt his feelings.

Sent an email to Nick and KW on Nov 1 requesting the three-month Short Sub delayed shipping package to be shipped soon, got no reply and resent an email to both again asking if my email request has been seen on Nov 4th, Nick replied on the 5th that the team did see it and has been processing the shipment, then nothing until now.

Checked my KW account to see whether the orders have been process, still the same four orders showing "Unfulfilled" and no update so far, so I sent another email to Nick only today (Nov 12) asking for update since I'll be away in December if the order doesn't process and I'll have to change to an alternative address.

Not trying to be picky, but this seems a bit subpar to what I've heard about Short Sub services from others.

My experience is either use the website contact form or Nick. Usually Nick is super responsive. Occasionally he can get busy, but that is rare in my experience. You can also email Nick directly.

If you want sketchy customer service, try getting info from Gamblers Warehouse.

I always email Nick and KW (the same contact on the website) directly at the same time... so that's why I said for my experience, it doesn't add up to your---the domestic ones'---experiences. "Quickly" wouldn't be the word I would associate with my experiences, and I don't mean within hours or one or two days but exceeding that.

Just for the record, I haven't received my Americana order, or even received a notice it has been shipped. But, I am not bothered by that either. It will come soon.

Hey, I just got a message on an electronic device I backed on Kickstarter 3 years ago (LVL Hydration monitor). They say they will pay us if we want to cash out, or we can wait for the final product (which is promised to be awesome, but can't say anything about it), but will get no more information until we get the product (no information on when that will be). I was an EB backer, but inclined to take my money and run (if they really will refund our money after 3 years). :lol:

I believe that was for the Tally Ho black diamond legacy case. I could've been one of the 10 owners of it. :)

I like my blue jumbo tuck. It'll definitely grab attention when seen. The deck over is ok, not too excited about the Bicycle versions unless something is added to them.

I love my jumbo tuck- I got the Red! I am a total sucker since I normally would have ordered just the blue limited or maybe a gilded deck, but I HAD to have the jumbo plus the giant ace.

Was the giant ace only with the jumbo red tuck or sold separately?

LIMITED EDITION: Only 1,500 and will NOT be reprinted.

Kings Wild is proud to release a LIMITED EDITION MURPHY'S MAGIC AMERICANAS playing card deck.

Celebrating my love of the United States and the nostalgic memories I have growing up going to 4th of July celebrations and eating way to many hot dogs. The Kings Wild Americanas Murphy's Magic Limited Edition are a beautiful deck for any table game with friends and family.

The Americana playing cards are printed by The United States Playing Card Company on crushed Casino Bee stock and traditionally cut. They have an air-cushioned finished for exceptional handling and play.

The Kings Wild Americanas Murphy's Magic Limited Edition tuck case is beautifully letter pressed by Clove St. Press with three color, red, white, and blue patriotic color scheme.

The Kings Wild Americanas Murphy's Magic Limited Edition includes an exclusive tuck case that salutes the partnership between Murphy's Magic and Kings Wild, using Murphy's blue as the background and gold as the boarder.

If this deck was gilded, I would've got it but just because it's Murphy and a recolor, nah!
