Thank you for your contributions. I actually use my credit card details for my Paypal. Hmmm.

And in order for me to allow direct Credit Card Payment, I would need to do flexible funding. Which not ideal. Hope you understand.

Hey Kai,

The shipping is what i get from Legends themselves. I dont earn anything from it. Let me know how I can help.

I'm in for a few - Good luck guys!

Thank you so much for your contributions. Don't forget to add shipping. A few people have forgotten already.

Shipping seems to be reasonable to me and similar to shipping with other sites.

Go go go! Add a few to your pledge now!!

Hey guys,

I just confirmed that you can use credit card when you checkout at indiegogo. Just select the credit card option instead of paypal and you are good to go. Thank you all that have pledged so far.

Cheers

Just wanted to drop by to let you guys know Edo and myself are holding a contest via Instagram. Ask us any questions and if we answer your questions via video after the weekends, you will score a free mantecore deck. It's that simple. You need to pay for shipping though. It's a killer. But it will be free if you have already pledged at least one deck with us. Cheers. Have a great weekend. head over to our instagram @siegismyname or @edohuang for more details.

I think it is mostly people using smartphones. It says shipping is free, too. Probably a bug in their software, I guess. I went back and added shipping to mine by picking the $1 "Nice Guy" reward and adding enough dollars to cover the shipping shown when you visit the site with a regular browser..

I should have read closer - it says "be sure to add shipping", and "shipping is not included", but when you enter your ZIP code (or maybe it's selecting United States) it tells you it's free for you.

Thanks your pledge Mike. It says free shipping to every ZIP you input. They just rolled this out during day 2 of my campaign. Confusing a lot of my backers. You are not the first. I emailed them but they said it was here to say. I can understand how it can benefit future campaigns. But it's screwing mine. A lot more manual work back end.

Hey guys, we are already at 51% in just 7 days. We will need all your help , no matter how small, to hit our goal. thank you all in advance. Http://igg.me/at/mantecore" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; if you need the link. The tigers in the world will appreciate your help.

Thanks, Ben. Frankly that looks pretty good. The benchmark for success is 50% in a week, and you made it. Keep marketing and reinforcing the campaign on Facebook & Instagram and elsewhere and you should be fine.

Glad I could help!

Hey Everyone,

We just past the 4k mark and are giving away 1 of 6 of the prototype deck as a way of saying thanks. Every deck pledged from now till the end of the week, will get double the chance. All decks pledged before will get one chance each. So if you have been putting that thought of pledging on hold, this week might be a good time to do so. The draw will be done using random.org this coming Sunday.

We also released a Q&A talking about Mantecore and some other stuff. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n-ggR0UgOwo" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

I hope you succeed with this deck. I got three to help you guys out!

Thanks dude. Love your shots on instagram. Hope you enjoy the 3 decks if it funds

Hey guys,

We are at 77% with 4 days to go. We really put a lot of hard work into this deck. Looking forward to you guys receiving them. Here's the link again.

It looks like you have one Black Joker. Usually, there are 2 Jokers. It's customarily for the Joker to have a value in the index so it can be used in a card game...

Thank you for that suggestion. I'll discuss with Edo and see what we can come up with.

Anyway I just wanna update you guys that we are 20% to our goal with 3 days left. SO CLOSE!! http://igg.me/at/mantecore" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

There is great news for all backers and people who are about to pledge. The prices of pledges will still be the same but, every deck pledged will get you one of over 200, 1024px by 1024px digital artwork by Adrian Valenzuela which he is selling for $5 each. The more you pledge the more you get. You can check out his artwork on AV's Instagram. Here is a sample of his artwork. This will all only happen if we reach our goal of USD 7,000. Attached is a sample of his artwork.

Continue to spread the word and we should be there in no time.

Also, we recently got featured in a blog post in World of Playing Cards. http://www.wopc.co.uk/blog/mantecore-playing-cards" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Hey guys. We are FULLY FUNDED. Mantecore Playing Cards is officially going to be a thing. Thank you if you have pledged. If you haven't and wanna help us out a little more and maybe hit our stretch goal, out campaign is still up for another 20 hours. After this campaign, the decks will not be sold at this price. So do grab one or more or an uncut sheet if you are interested. Here is the link. http://igg.me/at/Mantecore" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Good job selling that gross of cards, really helped your campaign

Need a sarcasm tag?

Never know could be CPC or perhaps Siegfried really likes them.

I hope it is genuine as the design deserves it - and would most likely have got funding much earlier on KS (built in audience essentially)

A local reseller actually pledged for them and they would be on sale for the masses real soon. So keep a lookout.

Hey guys, it's me again. We have been working really hard back end to get the printed ASAP. We are glad to announce that this deck will come in 1 colour but 2 finishes, diamond and emerald from LPCC. This allows you to better choose the finish that suits your needs. By default, you will receive the diamond finish deck as promised on the campaign page (http://igg.me/at/mantecore/x/5105034" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;). But of you would prefer the emerald finish ones, just drop me an email and I will take care of the rest.

For those that are unaware, the Mantecore campaign is still available for pledging. The InDemand phase of the campaign will officially end at the end of the month. After that, the price of the decks will be at least $12 at retailers. So do grab a couple at the campaign price if you're interested. Here is the link once again http://igg.me/at/mantecore/x/5105034" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Forgot about these so I'll pledge.

Thanks dude. Do remember to add shipping as it is not included. We are using tiered shipping to further cut cost for backers

How much to add shipping to the US?

Bikefanatic wrote:How much to add shipping to the US?

For one deck, I added $7. Ben would have to tell you for any other quantity.

Thanks Mike, I PMed him regarding the shipping and it is all settled.

Hey guys,

I am excited to let you guys know that Mantecore playing cards are currently being shipped. For those who have backed, they should reach you very soon.

Cheers
Ben
