BUMP! I realise most people wouldn't be interested in this sale. Feedback would be greatly appreciated though!

drop the price on the big guns, because everyone here knows that there is a website where you can get them for .99 cents a pop

They are sold out.
@Joshua Robinson - Thx for the advice. However they are all sold out and the current market price is 7$ for a deck... And many people missed out on them...

You can find Big Guns on eBay typically for $7, sometimes as low as $5.  It's the retailers that are charging big bucks for them: BMPokerWorld is selling them for $40 a pair.  If it didn't, he'd likely take a big loss on them.

The $0.99/pack deal was from Wingra Direct; I could be wrong but I think they're owned by USPC, but if not, they have a very tight business relationship.  At first they had them for $40/pair, but shortly after I bought mine at that price, they went to closeout last month for $0.99 a pack just to get rid of them - financially they were a big flop.  How many limited-edition decks (2500 of each color) do you usually find for sale a year later, especially when they were originally only being sold in color pairs?

If you check Wingra Direct now, you can find a pink Harley Davidson deck selling for $0.99/pack while some HD dealerships are still selling them at the original retail price.  It's a butt-ugly deck and I'm guessing another flop, but at least that one was someone else's custom order, I presume.

I meant it more to be informative than advisory, but you're welcome just the same.
