Bicycle Problem |
|
Alright, I'm really starting to get pissed at my Bicycles...I bought 4 decks...4. Out of those four, two of the decks contained cards that warped within a day, (my 8 of hearts and, coincidentally, 8 of diamonds in one deck, and my king of hearts in another...) and out of another deck, I have a defective card...a 2 of diamonds so noticeably off-center that I was doing a RIFFLE SHUFFLE and could tell that one of the cards was off... I mean, I just glanced down. What should I do? Stick the cards in an envelope and mail them to the US Playing Card Co, and wait for a new deck, or write a letter or something...I don't know..I'm just sick of throwing away money on decks and them turning out shitty.

Looks like you just ran into a little bad luck. If you really thiknk its worth it, the go ahead and send it in. I've never ran into this problem so I don't know what to tell you.
Did the warped cards happen to be on the bottom of deck while you were using it?

no, they were in the middle when I noticed them...and the deck was very noticeably split open. There was a MAJOR break.
will they send me a new deck, or just cards to replace the defective ones...
Also, do you guys think that I'd be better off trying to find some Bee's or something?

I think that Bicycles are usually a good quality. You probably just had a bad luck and bought decks from wrong series or something. But if you feel like trying another brand then do it.

This is really surprising; Ive never had any deffective bikes and have allways found my decks to be of top quality. I think you just have Bad luck dude
If you send the defective cards back (I think you gotta send it with the ace of spades for some reason) then USPCC will send you replacement decks.
And no I would not try out Bees, because imo bicycls are far superior and more attractive
