Flamingo Paperie

Just wondered if anyone on here has bought from, or sells Flamingo Paperie? I used to get Phoenix cards and it looks really similar, if not the same company. Any comments on the prices or quality? I really need to buy some cards but the online companies seem quite expensive.

I’ve bought from them as I also used to buy from Phoenix. Very similar quality and designs. I struggled to order last time though. I don’t know if it was the website playing up or something else.

Yes, almost the same as Phoenix but I didn't realise until recently it is a MLM. Obviously not cult like as some but it does sit uneasy with me.

It is essentially Phoenix re-created after Phoenix folded. It is indeed an MLM but a very low-pressure one - my friend’s mum sells for them. The cards are good quality and pretty reasonable.

Wonder why Phoenix folded for it just to be reinvented as something else. Sounds a bit fishy. I might have a look for some then, if the cards are similar quality as they were always a good price and some nice designs.

Didn't realise it was an MLM. I must admit I never felt pressurised when I sold Phoenix so I'm guessing it depends on your team leader person.

Thanks for the info.

I think some of the very successful Phoenix sellers set up a new company when Phoenix was on the way out or had already disappeared but I’m not entirely sure on the details of that. Cards are still very similar and very nice though!
