Your shipping to Canada sucks. Still haven't received my cards 3+ weeks after the "Shipped" notification, and 6 months after the initial Kickstarter backing. Success, yes, but was a corner cut on international shipping? Kind of frustrating for this consumer.

Two things I like about The Parlour deck is the classy, elegant art that was put into the deck to create a magnificent masterpiece. The second thing I appreciate is the thought, effort, and dedication that you put into the deck. I can’t wait for you to grow into a big KZbinr! Like you say, this is the “go-to channel for magic”!

Having started collecting cards after watching your videos a few years ago. I wondered how long it would be before you produced your own deck.

Congratulations on the success with your first deck. Before I state my favorite thing about it I’d like to say how much I appreciate the attention to production in your videos. Even the ads fall during the pauses or transitions instead of mid-sentence. A lot of KZbinrs could learn something here. I’m sure your 6k subs will be closer to his million before you know it. I’ve loved everything I’ve seen by Stockholm17 and I think it’s great you went with Cardamundi’s B9 linen finish. Recently purchased the Copag 310’s and love the feel and response. Looking forward to having the Parlour in my hands. Thanks for the great content and attention to detail as always and good luck with the channel.

I am a fan of the story behind the deck. The deck i see it as an extension of someone’s history and future. As being a TGW follower/subscriber, you have brought your home and family into my world, playing cards was NEVER a thought in my mind until I seen you reviews, this triggered an awakening, excitement, and ignited a Curiosity toward this art. I started reading and buying cards, now I am still a newbie, but have found a new interest in my life. So to ask what do i like about the deck, it is a reminder how I became to love such a unique art, cardistry, magic, and collecting cards. End all be all, i feel like this deck is an extension of myself as we have similar likes and dislikes. Keep up the great work TGW family!!!

My favorite part of the Parlour playing cards is actually two thing :) First, I love just how intricate the back design is and how the design lends itself to a single colorway so easily. Sometimes card backs can become so intricate or multicolored that it can be distracting from the feeling and overall story you are trying to tell. Secondly, I love that the black edition of the deck has Cartamundi's cold foil on it. I fell in love with the look when the House of the Rising Spade deck was released, and seeing it again here only made the deck look even better than it already did! Keep up the great work and good luck on the rest of your campaign!
