Hi there, and welcome.

It must be really frustrating for you. It's nowhere near the same level of annoyance, but I'm starting to see an increasing number of Kickstarters not shipping to the UK.

Welcome aboard.

There are shipping services that consolidate everywhere - which I use often for Japan and occasionally China and Korea to get things to the US

Wow, I absolutely love that question!

Dan & Dave has always held a special place in my heart. I actually have more than one brick of HMNIM playing cards and Fulton's Clip Joint – they're just incredible.

Do you know what else I'm head over heels for? The Smoke and Mirrors playing cards series, especially up until v6. The level of craftsmanship and attention to detail in those decks is truly mind-blowing. But a big NO for V8 & V9.

Lately, I've been exploring some new and upcoming deck creators. I think it's high time for a change and to seek out fresh experiences. Sadly, the current decks from Bicycle, Daniel Schneider, Ellusionist, and Fontaine just don't do it for me anymore. It frustrates me how they change the deck colors for no apparent reason and then sell them again.

Ironically, I'm not even a fan of the IRON MAN or SPIDER-MAN tuck boxes you find in Cardmafia decks. They're way too big and feel more like toys than actual playing cards. And let's be honest, their card designs seem like mere copy and paste jobs from a picture guide.

On a brighter note, I'm absolutely smitten with decks from Stockholm17, Charmie Dreams The Cat, Room One, and some of the KWP offerings. And let's not forget Theory11 – they have a special place in my heart, although I do find some of their intellectual property-based products a bit too similar.

How about you?

Yes, I used to buy from some local magic shop. But most of them would prefer more made-in-Taiwan decks due to the shipping cost. So there'll be a lot of Hanson Chien, EPCC & TWPCC
