New deck on ebay, it's call the Red trace deck. I'm not interested but thought I'd share anyway, pretty bland really but hey ho.

It looks nice, but $30. No I'll pass.

sinsandman · « **Reply #2 on:** October 20, 2011, 06:38:28 AM »

I like the look of this deck but I'll be passing on it

John B. · « **Reply #3 on:** October 20, 2011, 08:36:59 AM »

yea $30 is to much, but the design is cool

sinsandman · « **Reply #4 on:** October 20, 2011, 08:47:20 AM »

For $30 you can get 1 or 2 other known rare decks

Evan · « **Reply #5 on:** October 20, 2011, 02:38:27 PM »

ehh i can't really tell because theres no pic of the number cards or court cards.

Gunshy1 · « **Reply #6 on:** October 20, 2011, 02:45:26 PM »

the jokers are pretty cool. no way id spend 30 on it though.

Evan · « **Reply #7 on:** October 20, 2011, 02:46:20 PM »

I don't think the jokers look nice

Gunshy1 · « **Reply #8 on:** October 20, 2011, 02:47:45 PM »

they definitely don't look "nice" that's for sure. just different really, which i like.

sinsandman · « **Reply #9 on:** October 20, 2011, 05:41:20 PM »

Yeah, the jokers look tooney in a bad way

Guys, do NOT buy these decks. They are not designed by any particular artist. Want to know what's going on here? Well, an eBay wholesaler pays the USPCC to design a clipart deck and does a small print of them so that he can say "these are super rare!"

The decks takes only a few days to produce (to add perspective, a typical deck from T11, E, or us here at Aether takes at least six months to make).

They're an insult to the card community at the price that they go for. We are better than that.

In my personal opinion I think its a $5 cool deck. Just not $30 cool. Yahn mean?

I agree. That's the problem I have - this isn't the first time this dealer has done this. He is continually releasing "rare" decks to make a quick buck off of people.

sinsandman · « **Reply #13 on:** October 20, 2011, 06:31:11 PM »

Weak!!! We need to just stick to what we know is quality and leave the trash alone.

Yeah, people nowadays are buying cards because of it's rare more than it's good.

I honestly like the design of the Zebra deck. it's so obscure, it's cool.

John B. · « **Reply #18 on:** October 20, 2011, 09:25:41 PM »

yea if it was $5 i would get it.

Well, I don't like his design very much.

sinsandman · « **Reply #20 on:** October 21, 2011, 07:57:25 PM »

nope, come on. A little money and a piece of clip art does not equal rare or good

Jin Jian · « **Reply #21 on:** October 22, 2011, 08:41:56 PM »

it too expensive $30 and it still need bidding

sinsandman · « **Reply #22 on:** October 23, 2011, 02:24:43 AM »

If we make these decks fail at selling, maybe they will get the hint

that might work, I remember alex posting something about all the dumber decks coming out and what they were doing and maybe if people stop buying those people will once again start to put time and care into the decks.

sinsandman · « **Reply #24 on:** October 23, 2011, 02:28:42 AM »

Or go broke putting out crap decks that no one buys...either way they go away

EduardTodor · « **Reply #25 on:** October 23, 2011, 04:51:10 AM »

Hate it lol

EduardTodor · « **Reply #27 on:** October 23, 2011, 05:00:21 AM »

I'd rather put another 1$ and get a standard.

austin · « **Reply #28 on:** October 23, 2011, 05:01:55 AM »

Lol, Tough crowd. I don't blame you.

EduardTodor · « **Reply #29 on:** October 23, 2011, 05:05:07 AM »

phantom1412 · « **Reply #30 on:** October 23, 2011, 09:48:53 AM »

John B. · « **Reply #32 on:** October 23, 2011, 10:33:48 AM »

all it is is a modified version of a normal decks with barely any work put in it. it is not worth $30

loldudex2 · « **Reply #33 on:** October 23, 2011, 10:34:59 AM »

How does he get such limited decks made. The minimum is at least 2500

ya i know it not worth $30 but some say even if it is worth $1 they wont buy it even though they look nicer and they will even pay some more for a standard bike than those deck

John B. · « **Reply #36 on:** October 23, 2011, 11:14:34 AM »

because if we support people who make decks like this it will ruin the card market.

sinsandman · « **Reply #37 on:** October 23, 2011, 12:42:32 PM »

As Magic said, haw, if you support trash the trash will keep coming. I would buy riderbacks over these any day of the week

john · « **Reply #38 on:** October 23, 2011, 12:51:47 PM »

I would get it if it didn't handle like a standard bike.

No I doesn't handle like standard bike cause it's not a mass production.

The handle of the deck is good thing.

Jin Jian · « **Reply #43 on:** October 23, 2011, 08:30:43 PM »

i went to his ebay page and i saw he have alot of trace deck alot of it all cost around us 30

john · « **Reply #44 on:** October 23, 2011, 09:00:22 PM »

Well it is people bringing up the price, and if you look closely it is the same person, something smells fishy.

And no i would not get the deck of it was 30 dollars, i meant i fit was like 5.

austin · « **Reply #45 on:** October 23, 2011, 11:40:05 PM »

Why waist $5 dollars on this. You could always get a nice White ghost deck for $4.99 you would also save a penny.
