Given the high quality of these cards, I had to spring for the Deck of Extraordinary Voyages too!
Creator Oswin on September 5, 2012
Question : I have now realized fors these decks we don't have any box to put decks inside !?
Creator Justin Unsworth on August 17, 2012
Awesome ... I love this deck!
Creator Eddie Ferguson on August 2, 2012
I have not yet received my decks of cards. Is there any way I can check the address that they were shipped to?
Creator Giddyup on August 2, 2012
Hi. Can I suggest that you add a comment with a final shipping message? Something like, "All items have been shipped as of xx/xx/xxxx. Depending on location, especially internationally, you should have all your goodies by xx/xx/xxxx." It's difficult to tell whether one should keep waiting (with the stickers arriving the next day) or whether they have been forgotten in all the confusion. For the record, I received the decks quite a while ago, but nothing since. Thanks!
Creator Mark Brenner on July 30, 2012
I should have updated this but forgot, I got my stickers 2 days after I posted here so all is well now.
Creator Charles Alvis on July 23, 2012
OK, I just dropped in to let you know that I have not received the stickers either, but I see it's just been mailed out. We will wait.
Creator BentCastle Workshops on July 20, 2012
@ Lydian Coda, Mark Brenner, and many more: Stickers are in the mail today and more to be sent out Monday. Thank you all for your patience for your extra goodies.
Creator Lydian Coda on July 20, 2012
@Mark Brenner - I have not received my stickers either. Got my decks a month ago, but no stickers yet. :/
Creator Sylvain COPERET on July 20, 2012
Live in France. Received my decks last week with the Pippoglyphs. Good job. Fun to play with :)
Creator Mark Brenner on July 19, 2012
Anyone gotten stickers? I got my decks a long time ago but still haven't seen my stickers.
Creator razamataz on July 18, 2012
Just wanted to say that the cards I received including the Deck of the Living Dead, Pegleg Pete's and the Pippoglyphs are all really well done. Great art, beautiful cards.
Creator alexander menchero on July 17, 2012
He is clearly not ripping anybody off. Although the first shipment was lost in the mail, Chris was incredibly nice and promptly shipped again. I got my decks on the 13th of July. I gave one as a belated B-day gift and my friend was blown away. Excellent cards. I have the other deck and love it. Thanks again Chris. And, your right Craig I wasn't, but should have been Chilled Out.
Super happy and chilled out now to be certain.
Creator David Elliott on July 16, 2012
My replacements and missing items arrived today. Great job, Chris and Ben!
Creator S. Thomson on July 13, 2012
I've been playing an "Extended" version of Spades with my 58 card deck (including X's and Jokers) and loving it! Just adore these cards.
So excited to get my stickers when they come.
Creator Wilfred Walker on July 9, 2012
Hurrah!! My two sets have arrived!
Location: Ontario, Canada
Creator Craig Woodward on July 9, 2012
Wow people... Chillout. Of 5 friends I have that got in on this (all of us live in Rochester, within 50 miles of the starter) only 3 of us have our decks to date, one on the 29th, 2nd, & 3rd. I really doubt Chris is ripping anyone off, it just is taking a while to get things out. Add, the postal holiday this week and it's not surprising delivery is a touch scattered.
As for not replying, this was a holiday week for lots of people. I was off-line most of the week myself. This is a small side project, not Parker Brothers. Plus, how much of a crap will you feel like if you complain about this only to go home and find the box in your mail that night... :P
Creator alexander menchero on July 9, 2012
Call 1-800-275-8777 toll-free to reach the Washington D.C. headquarters of the U.S. postmaster general.

Creator alexander menchero on July 9, 2012
He has robbed me and he will rip you off too.
My next complaint is to the postmaster General. This is criminal. Service to some does not justify dis-service to a few.
Over the course of the past 8 days I have communicated with this Chris Pallace through Kickstarter, FaceBook, G-Mail, but he will not respond. He has collected my money, and refuses to send me my decks or address the issue.

Creator chris young on July 8, 2012
recieved my decks last week. wonderful artistry worth the wait are the stickers coming seperately?
Creator Darryl on July 8, 2012
Still haven't received anything in WA Australia any chance a email going out with who has been sent items so they can check with the respective post services. This seems to be a trend with most projects very long delivery times. Very little corespondents regarding items being sent to whom. Dazz
Creator alexander menchero on July 8, 2012
Happy to see some are getting their decks. I would be happy with just a response to any e-mail or comment about when you think I'm going to get my decks. Being ignored feels terrible.
Creator alexander menchero on July 6, 2012
Getting really depressed here in Miami. No cards, and evidently no news, or way to figure out an ETA. Anybody in Miami received their decks?
Creator Selgador on July 6, 2012
Received My deck today :D Awesome i love them!
Location: Montreal, Quebec, Canada
Creator Morris Umali on July 6, 2012
Yay! I received my decks today.
I almost forgot about these. Nice surprise to come home to after a long day at work.
In Sydney, Australia. :)
Creator Guy Himber on July 5, 2012
Cards and TShirt received
Many thanks, they look FANTASTIC!
Creator Eric Van Hensbergen on July 5, 2012
Got our decks and swag and all we can say is awesome, awesome, awesome. Thanks for all the hard work guys.
Creator Eliot and Ressie Lyons on July 5, 2012
(PS: Got our cards, in Alaska, 2 days ago.)
Creator Eliot and Ressie Lyons on July 5, 2012
Has anyone found card games for 56 card decks yet? I can't find ANYTHING out there and the Peg Leg Pete section of the site has a varients link that just loads up "Coming Soon", rather disappointing.
Sadness aside: These are probably the most fantastic decks I've ever touched. the printer you chose was top notch for the quality of deck you've delivered and really did the artwork justice, the bonus pippoglyph deck, after reading the back got me genuinely interested in the history of playing cards and the artwork just blew me away.
It's very clear that insane amounts of effort and thought have gone into these treasures so thank you for letting us all be a part of this project and revel in your talents.
Now hurry up and give us some games to play with our shiny as hell Reaper cards!
Creator Wilfred Walker on July 4, 2012
Anyone in Canada receive anything yet? I see that European orders are being received.
Creator David Elliott on July 3, 2012
I picked mine up, but my order was incomplete and damaged, sadly.
Creator Marcos Hidalgo on July 3, 2012
I've received mine yesterday! very good job!
Looking forward for your steampunk next deck! :)
Creator alexander menchero on July 2, 2012
Im in Miami, and I'm still looking for my decks. I'm exited because of all the excellent reviews. Is there some way t figure out an ETA for a particular set of decks ?
Creator Angelo Serra on June 28, 2012
Mine six decks just arrived this weekend while I was out of town - very high quality, graphics are nice and they play well. Thank you very much for finishing such an awesome project!
Creator Raymond Chramega on June 28, 2012
Mine arrived a few days ago. Best quality decks, by far the most superior artwork of any cards decks I own. I love them. Thanks for everything. I'm looking forward to seeing what the future has in store from Bent Castle Workshops.
Creator Christopher Howard on June 28, 2012
Everything came in today, and I am simply amazed. The quality is unbelievable, and the artistry is jaw-dropping. Thanks again!!!
Creator rhodeham on June 27, 2012
Chris, I just gotta say. Of all the kick starter projects I have funded, your frequent communication to the funding community is awesome. A+++. Thank You.
Creator Mark Brenner on June 26, 2012
I got my decks today and am very happy but I don't see any stickers anywhere, are they shipping separate?
Creator Allan on June 26, 2012
Received my decks and all the goodies. This really surpassed my best expectations... and they were pretty high already with all of the photos and updates. 8^)
The book is fantastic!!! The cards are amazing!!! Kudos Chris and Ben!!!
Creator S. Thomson on June 25, 2012
It's funny, I was about to post about how you forgot my stickers (I was so excited I got the cards, i forgot about the stickers too) but then I got your email :) Looking forward to them, thanks!
Creator S. Thomson on June 25, 2012
Just got mine and they are AMAZING. Thank you!!!
Creator Kimberly on June 25, 2012
Just got my cards, love them, thank you! Hope to see more projects in the near future!
Creator Dusty White on June 24, 2012
I just got my decks.
I LOVE THEM!
These are amazing--absolutely the best deck of playing cards I have ever bought. The art is amazing. Thank you for these. (And I have two!!)
Creator G.G. on June 24, 2012
Got mine yesterday :3 now to find regular boxes for them since, while pretty, the two deck box is cumbersome.
Creator _Zed_ on June 24, 2012
Got my cards today! Excellent work guys!
Creator John M. Ronan on June 23, 2012
Small gripe: You need to pack these better when you ship them.
The decks came in a Priority Mail Flat Rate cardboard envelope with only one piece of poorly secured bubble wrap around 6-decks. The bubble wrap wasn't even fully covering the decks. The "ends" of the bubble wrapped package were not taped which would allow the cards to slip out rather easily. The lone bubble wrap around my cards didn't even fully cover the decks on the left side when the came out. And wouldn't you know it, those two boxes (the Pippoglyhp decks) both had dinged corners on the upper left side. For card players-not a big deal. For collectors like me-very irritating though commonly seen.
Creator Phil Martin on June 23, 2012
I got my cards today. They are way more awesome than I imagined. I also loved the Peg Leg Pete and Pippoglyph decks. Very cool.
(Just to mention: my DOTLD box got a little beat up in transit, but fortunately the decks are undamaged.)
Creator Steven A. Seamone on June 23, 2012
Got my cards today, they are freaking amazing!!!, gonna give a deck to my girlfriend, awesome job Chris
Creator Tyler Thompson on June 23, 2012
SPECTACULAR!!!!
I cant get over how crisp and amazazing each and every card are, even the Peg Leg Pete and Pippoglyph cards.
My only question is........ Are the Caravan Clans shipping out at a latter date or did they get skipped on this shipment?
Again very impressed and I know we will be ordering more.
Thank you for letting me be a part of this ride to the grave.
Creator Roger N Dominick on June 23, 2012
Just got my cards! After a bit, some zombie mayhem...
