Yes, as part of HOPC's holiday contest, orders over $50 get that deck free. There are some higher tiers as well.

[quote="badpete69"]Same here MJF. A few orders came in today

First the Split Spades. Weird thing here I had ordered only 2 decks but got 20 extra decks

badpete... Is there a deck that you received that is not dented or dinged up... HOPC... Once again... Why not at least use some bubble wrap or a box... They send decks with the same care as slapping a stamp on the decks themselves and sending them out...

My HOPC came in 2 days ago, magic apple came in yesterday. LOVE the curator deck. Magic apple had quite a few little goodies attached with it. Anybody have info on "expert at the card table" deck. Seemed like nice cards, handled well, enjoyed playing with them. Love the ace of spades attached to this deck. Still waiting on my E order

Mine were bubble wrapped in a box that was contained in two postal envelopes...the postal envelopes were dinged up, but the cards were fine.

While I enjoy their decks, I have been consistently disappointed in The HOPC's shipping practices.

On the plus side, they are always willing to replace damaged items.

Well my Black Friday shipments have finally started to arrive. I got in my HOPC order(s)
scan0007.jpg
I write Order(s) because after placing all of my BF orders I had a little left over so I wanted to add the Vaudeville decks. I contacted them and asked if I could add to my order they said yes but needed me to create a new order and they would combine and refund my shipping. I did as requested and sent them a note with my 2 order numbers and they said they would get it over to the shipping department. 4 days later my order get processed. I contact the support line because it appears that they still processed it as two shipments: This was the reply
Hi Scott! Our email notification system is automated, so it unfortunately does not reflect manual changes to orders, such as combining 2 together. Rest assured, all of your decks will be coming at once!
Well I guess they were right they all did get here on the same day but in 2 packages. I will now contact them and hope they do the right thing.

Side question:
Anyone hear or see anything about a Vaudville "II" or a second deck in that series?
The roman numeral "I" implies at least one other version of some kind.

Very nice... I was hoping to get those, but my spending went overboard for black friday... maybe next month, if they are still available *cross fingers* :cry:

Here's my Black Friday orders that came in tonight... HOPC, Lee Asher and I got that Bicycle Club 808 deck...

Hey Matthew,

We should be making an announcement very soon on the update section. Hopefully by Friday you will have that answer.

Thanks

Finally got in an order from Tannen's Magic Shop (made mid November - stuck due to a back order issue *sigh*)

And the wait continues for Theory 11, Dan and Dave, The Magic Apple (just sent them request for shipping info - I've received none-to-date)...

Positive note, I had damaged decks from both BigBlindMedia and LeeAsher... both sent out new decks immediately!!! That's quality service. :)
