This makes my staff and I happy:)

Hi Shari

Late one night, I was surfing the ‘Net, trying to find something cool to give to the kids on our hockey team as a memento of the season and I was getting kind of discouraged until I found your web site. And you don’t know how glad I am that I found you!!

I received a (more than) prompt response to my initial inquiry and when I decided that I wanted to place an order, you were awesome at walking me through each step of what was needed to get it done.

We received our order exactly when we needed it and everyone agreed that playing cards, personalized with their team picture on the back, was the PERFECT gift to give 18 Bantam-aged travel hockey players who played Euchre, Poker and Blackjack on every road trip. The price was right, the parents and coaches thought they were cool and I think the kids’ reaction can be summed up by the one kid who looked at his cards and said “These are SICK!!” (not very eloquent but what do you expect from 13 and 14 yr olds?).

And so, with all that being said, I would like to say, yes, those cards ARE “sick” and also, thank you VERY much for the great customer service.  I will definitely be back and will also not hesitate to recommend you and your cards to anyone who is looking for a high quality personalized gift that won’t cost them an arm and a leg!!

Thanks again!
