Yeah Loldude I think I might when/if there is a down time in the card market haha I'm glad you're enjoying it. It sounds fun!!

Really none of us can tell. I doubt they'll do Jerry's but I can also see them doing something like that down the line

Who knows... It'd be cool though

Lol I doubt the Jerry's. They'll go broke if they send out Jerry's to you DOTM subscribers. But definitely the V7 when it's released though. Maybe if you're lucky you could get V5 or V4!

Well they wouldn't go broke! They got the Jerry's for cheap haha. It would just be crazy though! Yeah I'm sure youre right about the V7s, if that rumor is true.

OK I guess they won't go broke, but they'll get less profit. Probably $200 each?

phantom1412 · « **Reply #55 on:** February 29, 2012, 01:15:23 AM »

They sold Jerry for 350$ each. I'm 100% sure they won't give Jerry's away to DOTM.
Maybe they will hold some contests in the future, but not just easy raffle draw I think.

I'm still wondering what happened to the new decks part of the deal. They've reneged on a fair amount of what they offered. Here's their own description of the DOTM:

A one-year subscription to our Deck of the Month Club includes first class delivery of one brand new deck every month. A great opportunity to try out 12 completely different decks or start a playing card collection of your own.
All Club members will receive the same deck each month. 12 different decks (color variations excluded) will be sent over the course of one calendar year.
TERMS: All DOTM Club passes included a one-year subscription or 12 decks of cards. The fee includes all of our shipping and handling charges; you are responsible for paying any customs fees, sale or use taxes due to your purchase. All decks will ship the first week of the month, no exceptions.

Does this look to you like they've been holding up their end of the deal? OK, you could interpret "one brand new deck" to simply mean "one deck, new or old, that's in a sealed and unused condition.

Zaganh: are they charging you for ANY shipping charges? Or are the charges in any way related to customs, taxes, etc.? And if what you said earlier is true, they're completely reneging on the "first week of the month, no execptions" clause of their offer.

Rather than asking customer service, have you looked at the postmark on the package where the stamp was canceled (or for digital postage, the date printed next to the 2-dimensional code representing the stamp)?

Yeah I think the "new" refers to it being unused and sealed. With many of the subpar releases these days it would be hard to make DOTM very cool if it was only new decks. You'd get a few cool decks like the seasons, mana, vortex, revision 1; but, you'd also get some eh decks as well.

So D&D are still holding up their end of the deal.

NathanCanadas · « **Reply #58 on:** February 29, 2012, 07:53:53 PM »

I just joined. I realized that since last 2 months were 2 "okay" decks: squeezers and v6, I figured either this month or the next one there would be an amazing deck. So here, I joined. + the shipping price is included in the price, making this much less costly than the VB#6.

I think there's been enough good releases that if they stuck with only new cards, they'd be able to find at least one truffle in the mud on a monthly basis. Hell, look at the rate at which they were recently cranking out decks! They could have spaced them a month apart and tossed them in!

NathanCanadas · « **Reply #60 on:** March 03, 2012, 11:01:14 AM »

The DOTM club costs more than 120$ for international buyers because of shipping. Which means the decks will be worth on average more than 10$. Which means there will be some rare decks to even out with the new and "cheap" (5$ range) decks. I am figuring they will put Jerry's, if they ever put some, within 3 months from now because they have given some "okay" decks lately and they will want more members.

If they give Jerry's and I am not a member at the time, I will be heart-broken

While it's not impossible that would happen, I'd consider it unlikely. They could make soooooo much more simply selling them as they recently did. The community would blow a gasket if they did it. I could envision people burning S&M decks in protest (and using Chinatowns as kindling for the bonfire)!

I completely disagree with you. There are a good amount of nice decks coming out but so many of them are pre-orders so they wouldn't even be able to send them yet. That leaves them with many of the decks that are barely customized and I wouldn't consider worthy of DOTM club. There's lots of buzz about good decks but many of them aren't even available yet!!

come on magic con 2 and iaocp crosses fingers ha ha my predictions

magic con 2 i hope
white lions
iaocp
studs/plaid/monarch
another smoke and mirrors of some kind maybe v7

if they gave a Jerry's out i think they would send out 1 at random to a subscriber and that would draw people into joining

they gave the first one out in variety boxes and dotm has been mostly variety box decks so i think when the next is out they will

phantom1412 · « **Reply #69 on:** March 04, 2012, 04:48:11 AM »

I don't think the magic con v2 will be rare deck.
It will be wanted when it's first released. But the market will flood by them in short amount of time.

I don't know about that. Supposedly, these decks are only available to people attending Magic Con. That list can't be very long. I'm sure there will be a few extras, but I can't imagine the Bucks making this deck in huge amounts. It would only dilute the value of them, and if their decks become worthless, half their business gets shot to hell.

I would bet the money it costs to join Deck of the Month that the buck twins WILL NOT put Jerry Nuggets in it.
Let's face it the already have your money and you are relying on them being decent and sending you good decks, which if they had any sense they would. It means you won't be too annoyed and you wont complain. However let's face it - a Jerrys Nugget deck in good condition is worth more than the whole DotM. To give it away would be ludicrous. Why would they undervalue the deck, when they can entice people into the club by just offering decent decks. i think the DotM club is worth the cost (if you like D&D decks) they also give out good decks. Theres no benefit to putting in some Jnuggs.

sinsandman · « **Reply #73 on:** March 04, 2012, 11:25:16 AM »

I would say you're right, Haz. I can see them putting in a Jnug so to bring more people into the DotM. I don't think they have a ton of people in the club as of right now. But if word got out that a Jnug went into it, I see their numbers increasing significantly.

NathanCanadas · « **Reply #74 on:** March 04, 2012, 12:50:27 PM »

After a bit of thought, maybe there won't be a JNugg, but there will, for sure, be a couple of rare decks (rarer than the Tungstene) which will help the bucks make more money in getting more members.
