Eclipse Games

Unread post by Honeybee »

I am not from Sydney but they once had a couple of stores there dating back to 2008

https://eclipsegames.com.au/pages/about-us
However, like any great adventure, ours took a different turn in 2023. We faced challenges, as many did, and made the tough decision to close our physical stores. But in the shadows, we were hard at work, tirelessly crafting a new and exciting chapter. Today, we proudly reintroduce ourselves as Eclipse Games Online.

This is not just a rebrand; it's a rebirth. Our new logo symbolizes the dawn of a new era in gaming, while our website offers an extensive range of popular and hobby board games and playing cards. But that's not all; we've added a stunning array of Jigsaw puzzles, collectible TCG cards, and a treasure trove of assorted novelty items that will delight gamers and collectors alike.
I found these decks 'supposedly' available from them and the Cart pic below was me testing the supposed limit of their stock
Those are Aussie dollars so about $33us

It has to be too good to be true - doesn't it?

This was a September 2023 fb post (The previous post in Jan 23 had been about their closing)
Which along with their regular fb promotions for the next year, made them look fine and gelled with their About Us - becoming 'an online retailer' now
My only reservation (I am super cautious!) is that they went silent on fb again this year between Aug 21 and Nov 9 (their latest)
I would have dived straight in if they only had a couple of these decks in stock

I have exchanged email with them about the No.17 and he has simply replied "Hi mate, That's how many we have in stock?"
When I asked how that could be : "That would be a trade secret :)."

Since the above posts, I have bought No.17 and Hive decks from Eclipse and I can assure everyone that they are good to deal with :ucstar:
