EPCC Delivery/Production Timelines

[Cardians]

I was reviewing the outstanding decks that I pledged for and still needed to be shipped and coincidentally noticed all but a few, were being printed by Expert Playing Card Co.

What I also found interesting is the creators listed below not only choose to go with EPCC to print their decks but Gamblers Warehouse to fulfill them.

Here is what I gathered from the list below. If a creator runs his campaign correctly which includes having all the artwork completed for EPCC to review and start getting the ball rolling, it should roughly take roughly 5 months from start to finish which includes the slow boat ride over. This does not include the back and forth airmail of physical proofs and the 15 day waiting period for the funds from Kickstarter.

So after reviewing everything, what I find interesting is Jackson's Legal Tender project was funded on August 3rd, but his cards are not on U.S. soil as of today and it's been 8 months. Most backers won't see his deck into early to mid May. Does anyone else see something wrong here?

Makes me wonder as to why some creators can stay on a 5-6 month turn-around while some can't.

I just don't think about a deck until I see updates or a shipping number. I would like my deck to arrive before a year's time, at the shortest time possible but just whenever it's delivered, not to be damaged. I'm waiting on 4 of the projects mentioned below.
