I think this thread got lost in the transition from old owner to new owner.

Anyway.. they are now shipping out

It's about time. No idea why a deck that was funded in January is only shipping now. I know USPC has delays, but they are not 4-5 month delays. This is not the only project with the same delay either.

The Elite are extremely unresponsive, unprofessional and unethical in their communication with their backers. They don't update for weeks and months! Lack of response and contact just makes a big hassle in the road. Excellence and Gold are just a big mess, they aren't even giving any further info regarding their shipping. Shipping delays, lack of commitment and communication just destroys every trust. Not to mention their products are a big waste of money. They ripped off their backers MULTIPLE times in MULTIPLE campaigns through poker ship set claiming to be rosewood when in reality were manufactured by cheap scum Chinese companies. Elite has gutted a very low reputation. VERY low.

Maybe I was just lucky but the elite decks have been one of the few projects on kickstarter to at least fulfil their pledge reward, late but not too bad, several projects are six months plus behind.

The quality, and product, at least for me was exactly as shown. I don't think it represented great value, but very little on kickstarter does, you are funding the creator as much as a product. And while I think their description of the 'rosewood' box is misleading and should be clearer, for the price it is what I expected and it looks good, even if it is just veneer. I have gifted a few of their decks and use them regularly and have got a lot of positive comments, I personally really like the look. The dice are poor as is the aluminium card, incorrectly sized, but a minor gripe.

For me, the big frustration is that despite having not fulfilled the previous project order they can just start another project, so as now they have three unfulfilled which just seems odd, and they are not the only ones doing this. It would be okay if there was some kind of guarantee, I understand the need to get the next order in the pipeline from a business perspective but KS does not provide that assurance.

Well there you are! I was starting to think you won the lottery and were busy with strippers and expensive cognac!

Bicycle One Million now available in Red at various card & magic shops. Please tell me they aren't going to release everything in red now? I know there is already another Red deck from their last project.
