$16 for a deck of cards...its a shame that kids will actually buy them.
I don't understand why they would make cards.. That's just weird.

I saw that a while back, I almost cried. Not the laughter cry. At least its a set of 2 decks, Id break Warrior's CEO's kneecaps if they charged 16 bones for a single deck of cards.

I wouldn't mind a set of warrior cards [I'm a poker fan]. But no way in hell I'd ever pay 16 Wendy Frosty's for a deck.

ha, but its 2 decks of cards, not like it makes a difference.
2 new players club decks of cards - 16
warrior chin piece - 8
warrior end cap - 5
getting ripped off - priceless.

anyways i think they would be cool to have, though i would never buy them.

Wow because this thread doesnt look like very other warrior bashing thread I've seen on the forums. People will buy them, so what. Dont bash the company for doing business. It doesnt matter if they started selling solid gold jocks. If there's a demand for it then they can sell it at whatever price they want.

Dang right. I actually like warrior stuff, I think those cards are real neat.
I'd buy them except for the fact I'm on a budget..And I just think they'd really sell these if they lowerd it 5 bucks at least..

I like how they showed the 10, J, Q, and K of diamonds, yet forgot the Ace.
Because everyone knows a four card straight is the best hand in poker.

Mabey one day the people who own warrior will see one of these threads and realize that they have become a joke,,,.... But until thent that might be the biggest rip ive eva seen and if any one ever buys them they might be the dumbest person on the face of the earth

some decks of cards are actually worth that much. I worked at a gaming place that sold high quaility pool tables and bars and poker supplies and there are cards that are worth 20 bux. Now i dont know if the warrior are quaility or what but if so then yea its worth 16 bux, but it doesnt say anything about that so ya never know.

okay thats just lame. they try to use sex appeal to sell cards and its only a silhouette

... no they're worth it if you bought them cause they were warrior, then didn't want to look like a complete moron because you spent $16 on cards.
EDIT: Now that I think of it, I think someone should start a "hate on warrior megathread" These things just keep on popping up

Who cares how much they cost. If you don't want to pay that much, then simply don't buy them. I think the point that a lot of you are missing is that they are A BUSINESS. They are out to make money, not to make you happy. And to the guy who said made a comment about them using sex appeal to sell them, newsflash, they have been using sex appeal to sell for as long as I can remember.

You got it! If you don't like Warrior, don't buy their stuff. That's all there is to it. They use techniques that almost all successful businesses before them use/used, what's so wrong with that? They don't have super outrageous prices anyway. I'll admit, that's a little steep for cards, but no one has a gun to your head making you buy them, either. I'm sure plenty of people will buy them for 16 bucks anyway. If they don't, then one product didn't do so well...try on another. The way they advertise and the prices they set are because they are in a business to make money. You can't expect them to give you stuff for free/cheaper because they want to expand the game, they have done a lot for the game as it is and if you want warrior stuff, buy it, otherwise, don't. Enough complaining about it
Sorry for the rant, BTW, I just think there are too many warrior hating threads that are just ridiculous
Actually its 22 Junior Bacon Cheeseburgers after shipping... :chuckle:
and you got to count the tax on the Junior Bacon Cheeseburgers it it would be about 20 Junior Bacon Cheeseburgers (with the NJ 7% state tax) and a little under 21 Junior Bacon Cheeseburgers with 5% tax

Apparently they are nice cards, and that's all we know as wheelax2 is the only one who has any information about it besides "OMG WOW LOOK AT THAT STUPENDOUS PRICE''.... I'm getting myself some with my clublax points..And if you don't like them, Dont buy them or recieve them.
Warrior- Not that overpriced, Uses sex, "slang" and Shiny color's to sell...Seems to be working, they get their products to sell and its been a proven Marketing scheme.

I don't know if what the guy you quoted said was a joke or not...I pray he was joking..... :nofear:

Whatever, if you want a branded deck of cards and have $16 to spare, knock yourself out.

Ok if the cards r 16 dollars i bet it was a joke, imagine this scene
Warrior employee #1 "yo dude you think that if we made cards and sold them for 16 chocolate frostys some kid would actually buy them?"
Warrior employee #2 "No way no one is that stupid but if u do it and someone actually buys it drinks are on me for the next week, just make sure u make them out of something cool like cinamon tree bark, that way they ll be ultra baller."
Lets just try and remember the times that warrior has helped you guys out in a tight situation before we trash them anymore, remember the time they made sweet gloves and you got them and they were ballin, who cares if they cost 165 crispy chicken sandwhiches they were made of unicorn skin and made all the other kids envy you, or what about the time they invented sliced bread?
so the next time you trash warrior remember the time that they helped you out.
