Limited time only. The Gold Arcanes are now available to anyone who places a shippable order over $75. Let's these babies snuggle up next to your LTD and Red Artifice decks now, because this offer vanishes in 48 hours. Once you get them, take a picture of all your rare decks and show them off.
 
 But remember, after 48 hours, these decks won't be available at this level again.

They have given away every rare deck they have printed this holiday except for the BG1E so i am pretty confident they will give them away. I dont think it will be for $75 probably more like $150 or $200 but i think they will give them away.
People say nothing's impossible, but I do nothing everyday.

Today I found something that reminded me of you. But don't worry I flushed and everything went back to normal.

Did they do it last Christmas or the one before?  I've seen multiple "$75 specials" on the Gold Arcanes, the Red Artifices were actually available for purchase, and the LTD deck is very new and a holiday season special.  But with all the specials E ran in the last twelve months, none of them involved the BG1E, which is now the rarest deck they've got - they had around a thousand earlier this year and that number's probably in the upper to mid triple digits by now.


It would be a great thing, but also not highly likely.  Compared to the other sites, E's already been running the biggest and most attractive specials in the greatest numbers.

Because they havn`t done one last year, or the year before, or the year before that is one of the reasons I think they will do one this year :)  I think that they probably have about 650-800 left so if they did they they would probably make it a bit more expensive but I do think they will do domething. Last year they did a Gold Arcane special on the 23rd of December i think or 24th and that is where i got mine but i think they will do something at that time this year. The Red Artifice giveaway ended Sunday at midnight and then one day later they have done a gold arcane thing that ends on Thursday. So if they leave 1 more day between that a new giveaway will start Christmas Eve. It may not be a BG1E giveaway because they are running low on them but i think it will for sure be something like maybe 25% off everything or Free Shipping over X ammount.

I could easily agree that E will run some other kind of special between now and the end of the holiday season - and possibly yet another next week or the week after to catch after-Christmas shoppers as well as clear out some merchandise and make room for new goodies.  But just looking at the numbers makes me inclined to think that BG1E won't be a special.  Based on the numbers given mid-year and since, here's my estimates on their rare giveaway decks:

BG1E: in the ballpark of 700, plus or minus a few dozen.
Gold Arcane: perhaps 2,500, maybe a little less.
Red Artifice: less than 1,700.  (3,000 were sold in the first day, the only time one of these baddies was purchasable so far.)
LTD: unknown.  Maybe over 4,000, plus or minus a few hundred.  Largely depends on how many large-enough orders have been placed so far this season.

My guess - totally a guess - is that they're going to stretch out the supply of BG1E by only using them in the $350 and $475 prize brackets.  Let's face it - it draws big purchases.  They have other decks to draw the smaller ones, and the LTD will be the new go-to deck for contest prizes but E's been swearing up and down it won't return as a purchase premium.  So you'll see the odd "sale" of Red Arts and Gold Arcs as you have in the past two weeks over the course of the coming year, but the BG1E will be reserved for the whales.

It makes sense to me, even though I know everyone here wishes it was the easiest thing in the world to get.  Does anyone else have a logical theory (and not a wish fulfillment theory)?

After reading that I am acctually understanding why you think that they wont give them away. They make more money off them being in the $350 and $475 prize brackets. If someone is at a order of $400 they will probably add $75 to get up there. And i agree that there probably will be something after christmas. But I still have this tiny huntch that there could be something involving the BG1E maybe even a 6-hour sale. but i guess all we can do is wait and see.

I saw somewhere in E facebook that there will be no more deck promotion this year.
So, no BG v1 this year. And I highly doubt that it would be next year.

It is just a comment of someone's posts on E wall.
You gotta search for it.
The link would just be the link to E facebook wall.

Ok but notice how he said "Deck Promotion" There will be something else like x% off or free shipping or maybe 2 wristbands in the package. But now i think i am going to take advantage of this deal and get me a new gold arcane!

I know that - I was responding to the query about where Phantom found the info about no more DECK PROMOTIONS being offered this year.  No one said anything about other promos.

Extra bands is a possibility I hadn't considered - and a strong one, as well, especially after Christmas if there's unclaimed prizes left.

Jump on the Gold Arcane while there's still time.  But remember - if cash is tight, they've run that promo before, and didn't need a holiday as an excuse to do it.  It's likely to occur again.

That doesn't make any sense - they have roughly twice as many Gold Arcs as they do Red Arts because of the 3K sale this year.  The trade value of them individually is roughly the same on Ebay, or at least in the same ballpark.

But then again, it wouldn't be the first time in the world that someone did something that didn't make sense!

What's your source in that info?

I think the extra bands is very likely and I am going to get the order and just resell the Gold Arcane and have a pretty much free order ;)

Right now, GA are only about $60-$75 in ebay (bidding)
So, $50-55 would be a price that you can sell fast.

Right now, GA are only about $60-$75 in ebay (bidding)
So, $50-55 would be a price that you can sell fast.
Yes but those still have a day left so they will probably go for about $75-$90 and it is right before christmas so they are lower in price i think i will wait to sell until the new year when people make their money spent at christmas back ;)
People say nothing's impossible, but I do nothing everyday.

Today I found something that reminded me of you. But don't worry I flushed and everything went back to normal.

I think it's hard to resell the GA, and the RA these time.
Too much supply of them.
Yes but if i put it at a good price ike $75-$80 bucks people will buy instead of buying one for $100

I think waiting is the best choice for us.
Because they won't do the $75 on GA again.
I'm currently have 2 GA that I wanna sell too.
But this isn't the right time.

I think they ment they wont be available at this level again as in like the coming mounths not ever.

  Report/Mark as Spam  Ellusionist: Magic Beyond Belief Limited time only. The Gold Arcanes are now available to anyone who places a shippable order over $75. Let's these babies snuggle up next to your LTD and Red Artifice decks now, because this offer vanishes in 48 hours. Once you get them, take a picture of all your rare decks and show them off.

But remember, after 48 hours, these decks won't be available at this level again.

I have a feeling he wasn't speaking in terms of "forever" but in terms of "for this holiday season." Perhaps even "for just this offer period." But I've been known to be wrong before, so maybe I'll look a little deeper into this.

If you guys wait a few weeks and come up with a good price, I might be interesting in buying a gold arcane from one of you ::) I passed on the offer cause I've already spent everything on my LTD and red artifice, but I'm paying back my credit pretty fast. Nice order by the way.

That's fine for me, I'm not really in a hurry :)
I should think of getting myself a suitcase or something now, at this rate the value is rising fast...
