Awesome thank you for the info! $6 a pack is a good enough price to justify a brick or two... If you actually use them anyways.

Any word on who is doing fulfillment this time? I'm still waiting for my original Black Lions, which hadn't even shipped until like a week ago.

Gambler's Warehouse fulfillment center just took over Blaine's shipping. Eddie is ready!

i´m really pissed off by Gamblers Warehouse!!!
my black lions cards went to customs because they had labeled the value to be $30 - for two decks!!! real value was $21.77 which is a value free of customs fees.
1) The delivery got delayed by 1 week because of that!
2) My freetime , 1 hour waiting time in the waiting room,printing out the creditcard bill and the shop reciep..plus my gas and my nerves! spend because of that mistake

yeah awesome job gamblers warehouse - thanks a lot!

I ordered two bricks. I like the new color.

I also notice they raised the price of the blue White Lions to $12 a deck a few hours ago (from $10).

Finally got a chance to order within the first 24 hours. Had to go with the brick for that price. Cards and tuck look great. Can't wait to break them in for playing and see my son do his tricks with them. Blaine puts out nice cards.

Hmmm. Ok. I haven't had anything as of yet.
This wasn't a pre order was it? Should I get in touch or leave it for a few more days?

I got a notice the label has been created yesterday but no movement today. Probably going to be the same ol song and dance. I've gotten use to it when ordering cards from "retailers". I'm finding one of the benefits of Ebay is everyone is concerned with their rating so they ship immediately and it always comes in three or four days. I never have issues with Ebay.

I checked the tracking for mine today and it says they will be delivered Saturday.

Considering my area is supposed to get 2+ feet of snow from this storm blowing through tonight and tomorrow, I think it's safe to say I'll see mine sometime next week. :lol:

My brick arrived today. I only had time to unwrap the first two bubble wraps envelopes, then the box, then the bubble wrap around the brick box and open the brick. The tuck looks really nice in person. Have not had time to open up a deck yet. From order to delivery, it was very quick this time. Shout out to Gambler's for a great job.

No, Ben. I was born in København while my father was serving in the military, but I have lived in South Carolina since before I have memories.

The flag of Danmark might throw you off, but if you look it says Charleston / McClellanville (S. C.).

Well, what do you know. I got home tonight to my box of Blue, Blacklions. The shipping number they sent me was incorrect... I guess in reality that wasn't bad timing. Maybe just bad organization? Anyways, these are pretty and at six bucks I can't complain.

I went to get mine yesterday, because usps.com online said that they had left notice, and found the brick in my mailbox - so they were there Saturday. It was another item they left the pink slip for, odd.
