Kickstarter Link: Desjgn Bridge w/Jumbo Index (2 Viewers)

I like it! (y) :thumbsup:

Would it be out of place to ask what that cost to frame and mat it? I'd like to do similar and would like to know the ballpark price I should expect.

Just over $400. Framing always seems to come with sticker shock.

Cool, thanks. No as bad as I would have guessed, but still a shock! It looks great.

Any update @desjgn

 

[kecclest]

Any news?

 

[desjgn]

I posted an update on Kickstarter today and more news is forthcoming as the reprint commences.

 

[TheBigTater]

Excellent, I loved almost everything about the Classic Cultures especially the feel, the only exception was they were standard index instead of jumbo index. Now that is going to happen so bring em' on, I can't wait.

Thanks again @desjgn

The words “smooth plastic” scare me. But who knows - I’ll wait and see

Dude... they are so delicious and melty and smooth, like old school KEMs.

Sounds good

 

[desjgn]

When I mention smooth plastic, I was hoping just to let people know that there will be a difference in feel from the textured plastic from Modiano and what the reprinted decks will feature. I am glad to get started on this reprint so that this Kickstarter can finally be complete...not real excited about the cost, but I do what I have to do to get things right.

Again I am very appreciative of the effort made for those who donated to help with this reprint!

 

[TheBigTater]

And buy some of the many other fantastic cards Desjgn offers through the order page.

We should all support this type of vendor who stands up and does the right thing when "certain others" would not.

 

[Poker Zombie]

If it cuts down on costs, I think we all still have the boxes the old decks came in. Even if the cards are compromised, the boxes were fine.

Was not part of the Kickstarter. Update is for backers only. Can anybody provide a brief summary?

Entire story is here... https://www.pokerchipforum.com/threads/bridge-jumbo-index-issue.24936/

Quick summary: Cards were printed with inconsistent ink density on the backs, making some cards look darker/lighter than others. Due to the order in which the cards were aligned on the master sheet, the inconsistencies happened on the same cards in every deck, which allowed some people (with good vision) to determine certain cards just by looking at the backs. The vendor refused to reprint the order, so DESjGN is reprinting with a new vendor at his own expense, and at a massive financial loss.

Update is he’s getting the cards reprinted on very similar stock to the classic cultures.

 

[FDLmold]

So Modiano basically said F.O. ?

 

[Poker Zombie]

They started with "We don't see it".
PCF community bombarded them with complaints.
Thay told one Icelandic purchaser/distributor that called on the phone to complain "We're fixing it"
They then never even tried the reprint, and gave Desjgn the complete run-a-round.

Long story short: Never buy Modaino cards again. Their concern about security in playing cards is entirely non-existent. If you are using Modiano cards and someone seems to be getting a perfect read, it might just be because their vision is better than yours.

 

[FDLmold]

Yeah Modiano can go pack sand at this point with a response like that.

Yes so keep your boxes, not that people were going to discard them. I will be shipping reprinted decks only.

I hope you play good poker, so we get an unbiased review

I’m already down 1200 chips in a t2000 tourney... these cards clearly suck!!!

Just wanted to give my feedback on these cards. I love them for their ease in shuffling and dealing. The inherent problem, which I think is common to all bridge size decks is that they will warp well before their poker-sized siblings.

Other then KEMs, I have never had a bridge-sized card warp. That's a fault of KEMs though, not the card size.

It’s not the size that matters it’s how you use it…

I got some bridge Bicycle WSOPs that were absolute tacos, but that came from a house where Im convinced the walls themselves were warped. Must've lived behind a waterfall or something.

What year? Aren’t those KEM? Or else Fournier
