There are other quality card companies

Why don't kickstarter people ever get decks made from GEMACO or Cartmundi or Paul Wilson?

I have Casino decks from all of these companies and they are pretty decent. blah blah blah bicycle brand. I know, but I bet some of these gosta be cheaper

Didn't we JUST have a huge discussion about why USPCC is the best in the business? Can't remember which thread it was in.

There is no such thing as cheap for a quality product. Even if they can get the design and quality right, the price would be very similar. You need to stop focusing on cheaper and instead worry about quality and value.

Thanks!

Let's say it is cheaper by a dollar per deck. That would make the Federal 52 deck reward $14 instead of $15. For $14 I would still want the best, might as well go with Bicycle.

Cartamundi actually isn't cheaper than USPCC. I got some quotes from them last year before I even got to USPCC. They had a minimum order amount of $10,000 and their per-deck price was actually higher than USPCC, even with Bike branding. What's good about them is that they have a huge array of options and materials to print the tuckboxes with (soft-touch material, selective foil, lenticular, etc.) and they can customize the box to any size and shape you want.

If not for the minimum order being so high, it would have been cool to get the cards printed at USPCC and the tucks made at Cartamundi. That might confuse the hell out of everyone though.

Actually our MOQ for decks with a finish like the DMC ELITES ROUGE start at 200 decks yet you have to order them through the Cartamundi HQ in Belgium, where they are made

hope it helps!
