Reduced the price on some of the decks, plus added OBO (or best offer) to others. I'm using these decks to fund some art projects I'm working on so feel free to contact me with offers.

Playing Card Plethora / Re: Blue JAQKs from T11- new release coming soon?
« on: October 01, 2015, 03:59:58 AM »
No date was given on when this will be released. These appear to be a darker blue than the original. Would you guys consider this a reprint?

Unless there are changes to the deck (pips, courts, etc.) I'd consider this a reprint. New colors, not new ideas/design. I saw the T11 Instagram post and was hoping for a new version of the deck, but so far that doesn't seem to be the case. I'd love to see a reimagined version of this beauty.

Don nailed it on the head, the art is gorgeous! I may have to pick this up for the backs alone. Easily one of the most beautiful back designs!

These are beautiful! It's awesome to see unique court cards like these. Nice work Joelle. I'm really hoping these meet their goal.

Despite the short deadline, they're already at $4.4K of $10K with 112 backers.  I guess when you charge $25 a pack, you only need to sell 400 to hit the goal - on a print run of 800 decks and 50 uncuts.

It was actually a print run of 5000 (through USPCC... I believe). They gave out almost 3,000 at the How Live Design Conference. This should leave them with over 1,000 leftover after this "funding"

Hey there, BB - it's been a while!  Missed having you around here.

It just seems so silly to use "crowdfunding" to pay for it after the fact - in retail, that's what we call "selling"...

It's been a while indeed. School got so demanding I only had time to pop in occasionally to see the new deck releases. I completely agree, it seems ridiculous. I understand doing this for the first few decks reduces turn around but it defeats the purpose of crowd funding as you said. I honestly prefer the KS method to DeckStarter. It's a shame too because I'm a huge fan of Aaron Draplin's work and The Dieline.

From the pictures I've seen this is a beautiful almost fully custom "water" themed deck. It's nice to see a more customized deck!! Also from the glimpse I got there looked to be a card with a squid/octopus... possibly the joker? Overall from first glance it looked like a great deck! What's everybody else's first impression?

Depending on the deals from E, T11 and D&D, I will have to choose very carefully and wisely.

As opposed to very carelessly and foolishly?  :))  I think we have crowned yet-another King of the Obvious!

I think opposed to getting all of them haha. I wouldn't be surprised if the quality and creativeness of the products made it easy to decide. I feel like the quality of so many designs have fallen that I truly want only a few of the many releases.

haha oh goodness ^  ::)

The previews have been cool but theyve given us nothing on the deck itself haha I'm hoping for a good end to the series at a good price point. Do we have any info on when this will be released? next week, month, before the end of the year? cold hard facts?

Shipping is much more affordable! As low as $3 for 1 deck! Woah Evan shared the link!!! haha
Yep! I shared the link when it was supposed to be shared. Unlike you, who shared the link when it was not supposed to be shared.

Back on topic: I am glad to see that the shipping prices are back to normal. Sadly I had to pay $11.95 for domestic shipping last week  :(

@Evan - I actually never shared the link because I never had it... I Didn't get this deck until tonight  :D Not trying to start an argument just saying I think you got the wrong dude haha

Overall I really like the look of this deck and I think with the right tactics they could pull this off next time. If they had the map go to a page for the "secret" deck with a 1-time use code to purchase a deck. Of course if you added a not super limited stock to that formula it would work even better. I could see it being fun and very profitable to them.

edit: whoops saw that idea was posted a couple posts above me. Didn't read that one. Overall I think it could work even though, as Don stated, it could be a lot of work

@brown_baggs, I'm not going to keep typing the same exact thing. I didn't withhold information, and I straight up told people that they could get this deck by deciphering the Sultan deck.

@Aaron, please don't blame me for something I didn't do. I actually wasn't the one who revealed the name or anything about the deck. I believe it was Lazarus who did it.

@sr15, right, because I'm sure you know exactly what my thoughts are. I actually did care what ellusionist wanted us to do. And if they didn't expect people to order more than once, then they would have said only 3 per person from the start.


I'm going to sleep now. I'll be back here in the morning to continue repeating myself over and over again.

okay fine Evan you can keep writing the same thing but we know thats untrue and you fail to acknowledge the fact that you deleted my posts about the deck info (thus keeping it from people). Ill leave this to rest and you can keep defending yourself. But I think your reputation will be tarnished for a long while...

Yeah I also noticed Evan trying to keep info from possible buyers. I posted a comment on his playing cards page on facebook and it was deleted. I posted it again so people would have the info and would pay an ungodly price for a deck they could get for less than 10 bucks and that comment was deleted and I was blocked from posting on the page! That's going a long ways to stop people from knowing basic information. I find it extremely dishonorable and I would consider him an ambassador for the card community like CBJ and others. Tis a shame
This is ridiculous and yet again false! I banned one person and clearly it was you, and the reason was because you that person was repeatedly posting the link to the decks, and every time I deleted it, it was posted again, so I to banned that person from posting on my page.

someone who runs a facebook page about playing cards is deleting information about playing cards on the page...

well that's just great
Deleting information that is not for everyone. In the past, I have been asked by the companies to remove information like that because it is not meant for people who in this case, did not decipher the Sultan deck.

The info on how to find the deck and buy it was not for everyone but when you posted the ebay auction you released the info that this deck was "out there" by me telling people E had it and they could use the other deck to find it... that is for everyone. It's just slimy what you did.

edit: the post above me echos my thoughts!
I was telling people how they could get the deck. I straight up told people that they could get the deck by deciphering the Sultan deck.

Complete lie. you kept info from people AND deleted my comments telling people about it. If you had told people they wouldnt have paid your ridiculous prices

yet you didn't delete your ebay auction that revealed the deck, and you ordered at least twice the amount of the deck you were supposed to. who are you to say that the information isn't for everyone?
As stated on the Sultan Republic Treasury deck product page, "We ask you not to reveal the whereabouts of this special deck of playing cards." We are allowed to reveal the deck, just not reveal where to get the deck (the link)

and i did this on your page without a link and you deleted it! That's going out of your way to keep info from people.

« on: November 05, 2012, 06:12:07 PM »
hey Alex are you ever going to release the Harlequin deck or are you really done making playing cards ?

What? Didn't you read the posts above you.

Laur, that post was almost a half a year old. Frost poses a good question... will we ever see this deck?

20
@evan you didnt keep it a secret because you sold it for 4x what you paid for it. By showing/selling it to others you let the cat out of the bag. It almost seems like scamming since people didnt know about the retail price (which you kept hidden and stopped people from posting on your fb page)

All in all I just think that was low of you. And I feel bad for the poor person who fell for your trick and bought a deck for 40. They essentially got scammed.  :bosswalk:


21
you can sell it for whatever you want but you make me sick saying you bring people the playing card news on fb. Instead of letting them know that they can get these from E or wait for a possible release (like CBJ) you just try to make a quick buck. You also try to stop others from letting people know about the sale on the E website. You aren't bringing the news you using it for you own benefit

22
Guys, it's an eBay sale, not local.  He can charge whatever the hell he wants.  Doesn't mean you or anyone else has to buy it.  Cut the cross-talk, please.


Brown_baggs: some secrets are meant to be kept secret...

who cares. Cats out of the bag. I'm just sharing some info with my friends in the community. If you want to cry about it go ahead but I think everybody should get the chance at this deck.

probably cheaper here!
Are you serious right now man?

Just throwing it out there. They're still available on the E website, so thought people would like to know that  :)
They were only for people who spent time and money buying the Sultan deck, and deciphering it.
oh gotcha, oh well...
