Hey all!

Sorry for the inactivity but I've been caught up a few issues at home but I'm back baby!  :D

After my somewhat successful kick starter for PlayingColor https://www.playingcolor.com/, I've been shipping them from Australia and even gave my friend a few decks to take with him to US so he can ship them out from there to lower costs for the customers!

However, I need a long term solution for fulfillment/distribution for playing cards and wondering who have you used and how much were their costs?

Claire

Gamblers Warehouse is the one of the best in the business. They ship quickly and product arrives undamaged. May want to check with them about their fulfillment prices.
Part of my Collection updated infrequently but occasionally, when I remember. (I haven't in months.)

Gambler's Warehouse and PlayingCards.net are the same entity in Dallas (Grand Prairie), TX. They do lots of kickstarters and I've actually seen them packaging orders in person when I've gone by their shop. I don't know if they'll only buy wholesale or if they'll do consignment for you, but I will second that suggestion.

I used Collectable Playing Cards for my Kickstarter and they did a great job.

I agree, the deck looks amazing and so much fun - with infinite possibilities :)

I too am curious about fulfilment solutions from Australia. To date, I have been shipping my decks directly - and while postage to the US isn't as expensive as to some European countries, anything that cuts down on shipping cost for backers is a good thing :)
