$38 for one deck must be a joke or a mistake, right?

I quite like these. The custom pips are elegant and the artwork looks nice. $20 for shipping seems very strange, so these must be self-fulfilled out of Turkey. No mention of where they are shipping from so that is a guess.

The main thing that bothers me is the phrase: Fend the Foe. It seems it should be Fend OFF the Foe in my experience, but it may be different in different places. I wish them the best and hope they fund, but the price with shipping is a no from me.

i can understand this, there have been many decks where the title has really turned me off. not that these cards and tuck interest me at all.

Hi guys,

We, as the abra team, have offered the Fend the Foe deck for sale on the kickstarter page. We were aware that the shipping prices were quite high since the products will be shipped from Turkey, Istanbul. After the feedback we have received from you, we can talk about changing our cargo agreements and distributing all products from the USA, thus at a very affordable price in terms of pricing. After the feedback from you during the campaign period on Kickstarter, there were a few issues that we wanted to explain. One of them is the name of our deck, Fend the Foe, which we used to mean to fend off the enemy. Thank you very much for your feedback and interest. We aim to be back on kickstarter after a few changes. We are waiting for your feedback and suggestions for us.

Thank you in advance.
