[Dizzi]

hey all. I bought some guardians at walmart today, and I made a video of it. they are not showcased, but they are however shown on both sides so that you can see them

By the way: They DO feel different than normal bikes. they are on a thicker stock.

"The Guardians being sold in stores are the exact same quality as those being sold here at theory11."

So wait... the Guardians at Wal-Mart ARE the same things as the Guardians here?

RS.

PS-- Please give me the benefit of the doubt and appreciate the humor of this reply.

HA! I don't think so... my friend, like I've said before, bought a bunch. I compared his Walmart Deck to a real T11 deck, they felt VERY different, the quality was nowhere near the same.

 

[Dizzi]

well, the walmart ones, though the same, are 3.93 CDN, instead of 4.95 U.S.

To clarify - they are similar, but not exactly the same. This was my mistake.

Decks sold directly at and through theory11 - as they are completely controlled by us - have much more stringent manufacturing specifications. The decks sold through retail outlets are printed separately from those distributed directly by theory11, and therefore may not feel exactly the same. Not too much different, but not identical.

they do feel different. I will nkow in the future whether or not they are worth the extra 60 cents. most likely: yes.

Plus shipping, and duties to cross the border.

But yeah, I just picked up a deck today. I'm fairly happy with them...my first Guardians deck, ever, so I can't compare them to the decks sold here. At just under $4 Canadian, I couldn't pass up my chance to try out a deck of guardians (no shipping, and no duties, really sealed the deal). They'll probably be my only Wal-Mart bought deck of Guardians, but it's still nice to give them a shot.

Heh, I just picked up three decks. Nice work theory 11!

Has anyone spotted these in the USA (specifically NJ ), or are these only available in Canada?

I have yet to see them in Walmarts in Ohio. I have checked 3 locally and nothing. Unless someone has beet me to them and bought all of them but I didn't even see an empty shelf near the cards that said guardians or anything either.
