My friend, I hate to be the bearer of bad tidings, but until you move to the US or an Aussie company buys Jarden and/or USPC and moves it, you're going to be seeing a LOT of this.

You NEED to find a forwarding service, create a local (or local-enough) buyers' club or both.  Otherwise, we're going to run out of frowny faces...  :))  You're on a forum that's practically littered with Australians!  Carpe diem!

HudsonDesign recommended me to join the Facebook club, hopefully that can help me in the future. I also looked at the forwarding company, but so far I haven't been able to find 1 that suits my need.
Especially for kickstarter decks, they are all have different release dates. That means I have to join for the year membership. In the end I found it more expensive since I don't actually backed every project.

I am also thinking of asking the magic shops in Australia, if they are interested in kickstarter deck. That way maybe I can earn a little money on the side  ;D

Suffice to say you don't need to worry about postage costs for larger orders anymore;)

Just to let everyone know that we have around 200 decks with the holographic seals remaining. If they don't go during the pre-order stage, they will be available as part of brick deals only when we release on May 30th (TBC). The pre-order window lasts for another 7 days.

On a side note, we had an issue with MailChimp over the course of the past 12 hours. Around 600 of our newsletter subscribers were automatically unsubscribed by them, so far we can't work out why - but we're working on it. If this was you feel free to resubscribed if you wish.

Pre-Orders for LUXX v2 close at midnight tonight (UK time) folks, so you have a little over 7 hours left to grab the lower price. We're expecting to receive stock in around 7-10 days time, then all pre-orders will be on the way before the official release date of May 30th.

I got my brick, am loving the decks. Looking forward to whatever you put out next. If you do another color of the Luxx I want to recommend a Christmas edition Red and Green.

Got my mixed brick last week. Absolutely love the decks. The gold version is my favourite -- definitely one of the best looking decks in recent times.

The long holographic ‎are pretty awesome.

With this signature I'm following the example set by Fes: There is only ONE letter L in my display name. "Holly" is a female name... and I'm a bearded guy who's into weightlifting. There's nothing feminine about me brother!

Hi guys,

Over the past few months i've been trying to find a Gilder in the UK who can gild the v2 LUXX decks to a high standard. We've used the USPC decks as a standard to beat, and we believe we've achieve that.

Working with an English specialist, I think we've produced something to a high standard (hopefully you agree if you choose to pick one or two up). In comparison to a Bicycle Allure Gilded deck, they are much smoother, cleaner and more consistent but that may actually be in part due to the superior printing by Legends.

V2 LUXX® GILDED COLLECTION -- http://jpplayingcards.co.uk/luxx-gilded-collection

- A Strictly Limited release of 200 Silver and 200 Gold only. We may offer another sale window later in 2015 or early in 2016, but it won't be as many as this.
- Purchase 4 decks or more and get a free v2 Black Nickel LUXX dealer coin.
- The decks will be gilded to order only.
- The pre-order window closes on July 17th, and we expect to despatch all parcels by the 10th of August.
- It should be noted that gilded decks do not handle quite as well as standard decks, due to the edging - so they're not really practical for magic. These decks are primarily a deck to play card games with, so this gilded edition will make a beautiful gift!

-----------------------------
We have uncut sheets and tucks which will be available together with the gilded decks also, and hope to have them added to the site today.

We aim to have all three new products available for pre-order today or tomorrow, but it may be later as we still have to iron out a few details. I will update the thread when they are available but keep an eye on the site if you don't want to wait for me.

Hi folks, we have uncuts, gilded decks and tuck uncuts available now.

The tuck uncuts we're particularly chuffed with. Some images below, which to be honest don't do them justice. Each tuck uncut sheet comprises three complete tucks before they were cut and folded. Thanks to Lawrence for this, they look great!


- Tuck uncuts, 90 available - http://jpplayingcards.co.uk/v2-luxx-tuck-uncut-sheets
- Playing Card Uncuts, 20 of each available - http://jpplayingcards.co.uk/v2-luxx-uncut-sheets
- Gilded Decks, 200 of each available - http://jpplayingcards.co.uk/luxx-gilded-collection

The preorder didn't start until about 1:30 Eastern today

I'm in for 2 of each. Looks nice, and not bad priced for a gilded deck in my opinion.
Last night I stayed up late playing poker with Tarot cards. I got a full house and four people died.
