They only have two items:
-
Bicycle Playing Cards "Poker 808 Rider Back" -
Bicycle Playing Cards "Poker Jumbo Index 88"But the
pricelist is tempting (already include shipping)

Anybody in SMC have tried this one ? If yes, do share the experience.
Thanks ^_^

Considering the US dollars rate now, I'm interested. Anybody wants to conduct a MO?
P.S. Where in Singapore has the cheapest Aladdins?

@bigbadwolf: nice idea. considering 24 dozens of decks for USD$570 which makes only USD$23.75 for each dozen !
I think i should considered to be a dealer :P :off:
Anyway, if say the order quantity is large, and as we know those are heavy, do the customs charge you again ?
About aladdin, Magic Boutique offer for SGD3.50, or you can try 7-11 at sommerset (the one besides OG) for SGD3.65, don't know about other dealers though.

Do remember that import above a certain price is subjected to GST 7%. I'm defintitely getting a dozen at least. Thanks for the good lobang!
MO-wise... anyone taking it up?

I don't have any experience with this company at all but I can see from the site that it is a division of another company. The link on the site takes me to http://hiwholesale.com/ which says they have an eBay store.
Here's the feedback for that store on eBay : Lots of bad feedbacks here !!
Personally I would be careful. If something sounds too good to be true then it probably is... |

So anyone tried it yet ? I'm planning to get 4 dozen but i'm afraid that it's a scam...

I have friends from other forums who bought from 808cards.com. I think it's safe except for the long shipping wait at times. But since you are getting 4 dozens, i think you can get a good price with our local suppliers too.

I guess magic boutique would be a good place .
As for the long shipping , I guess there's always a reason why the price for the deck are so cheap when shipping are included.

A little secret to cheap cards...
When I went to the States, I only paid USD$14 for a dozen deck of cards. But of course that was wholesale price.
If you have any friends, relative living there, ask them if they are members of cosco. If they are, you are in for cheap cards when you visit them.
