Got mine today, love the pink color, but the foil could've been a different color imo cuz it just looks black in most light unless you move it around then it's dark purple. Wish it was like yellow or something. I thought t11 uses uspcc for their monarchs decks, but my deck came suspiciously well centered??

I still like the sound of that description bdawg (I wouldn't have bought yellow on pink)

Fair enough, but I think the mailchimp summer deck which is like orange on pink looks a lot better than this.

Do you mind sharing a photo? I didn’t order any but curious to see a real life look.

Mine still haven’t arrived. They look less vibrant than I thought based on those picks, but I still like them

For what it's worth, this color is hard to photograph correctly on phones. The pics I've taken on my phone don't really register the pink correctly for some reason. It's a much more bold and saturated pink than those pics show.

I received mine today and am pretty happy with them for them being T11 decks. The pink foil looks good on both the tuck and backs.

If it doesn't say USPCC on their website or on the product I would be suspicious especially with foiled decks.
You want to reclaim your mind and get it out of the hands of the cultural engineers who want to turn you into a half-baked moron consuming all this trash that’s being manufactured out of the bones of a dying world.

I know I have been collecting too long when I can say they don’t smell like USPCC. :) It’s a crushed stock. My guess is WPCC.

That mailchimp looks pretty good, I had no idea it had a pink back until you and manu posted it - the tuck had me thinking it was yellow on orange
Your pic of the Monarchs look salmon. I still like them as I have/like a lot of Black on White decks
I thought the pink may have been like the Fontaine x Missing pink

I received my decks from Theory 11 and per usual, some of the decks have dinged corners on the tuck box. I have come to just let it go, but two of them were pretty bad. I reached out to customer service and they had me send pictures. They agreed it was unacceptable and are sending me out two new decks for replacements and did not even ask me to send back the damaged ones. I thought that was pretty decent of them. Always happy to report good experiences with playing card companies and good customer service.

Not USPCC as I saw in the comments section of a creator whose reel was shared by T11

Thank you for your order! Just wanted to make sure you were kept updated of the current delivery timeframe for customers in Australia.

Due to a large amount of inbound packages, shipments entering Australia are experiencing delays up to several weeks for delivery.
They have arrived in under 3 weeks - I knew that Australian delays was rubbish
The PINK is very vivid - see the opening post for a realistic indication. I thought that may have been the lighting but no - it is that bright!
It would look super without the white border and matching pink gilding :drool:
