Playing Card Plethora / Smoke and Mirrors Special Edition
« on: August 16, 2016, 08:32:07 AM »
Hi Guys

I have some Smoke and Mirrors Special Editions written on the bottom of the boxes and I was wondering if you guys know much about them? I can find ones that say Luxuary Edition but not Special Edition and just wondering how much they are worth?

Hi,

I'm currently living in Calgary, AB and have stopped collecting and would like to see some off my collection. I started collecting in 2010 and have most of the rare and hard to find decks from the big guys. I have a variety of Theory 11, Dan and Dave, Ellusionist, Blue Crown, David Blaine, Friars Club Regular Playing Cards etc.

If you live in Calgary then please send me a PM.

At this time I am only selling face to face with people in Calgary as I do not have the time to list all my decks and send them via mail.

Thanks
Calvin

Wow! What a massive collection!

Out of all those DVDs, which one do you constantly refer back too?

Is that a Friar's Club deck I spy in the last photo?

I believe that is a deck of Friar's.

How would you compare the Jerry's with the Friar's?

I thought that they were only releasing one and only one sheet:

Taken from their Christmas 2012 Prizes page:  http://www.ellusionist.com/christmas-2012-prizes

"The LTD is one of our most popular, highly reviewed rare decks. We've held back giving away uncut sheets of the deck since its release last year. This year, we'll release one - and only one. Signed by Brad Christian it's like the floodgates of rarities have opened. This will be a magic collectible that NO ONE but the winner will have. Until we give away another one. Next decade, at this rate."

I was hoping to win this from the contest, but instead just picked one up.
It says, "This year, we'll release one - and only one." It is now 2013, so it is not that year.

They were released yesterday to black club members first and yesterday was still 2012.

Yup, saw that and passed on it.

That doesn't seem like a fair trade at all. But then again I'm not really informed on how rare these 'Jerry Nuggets' are. Why trade 5 new decks for one deck that's not new, furthermore it's in a pretty used condition?

Thanks for the reply, at first I was offering two unopened orange friars and two blue friars, but the person wanted five blue ones instead. Jerry Nuggets are rare, but you can always find someone selling it on ebay. If you have the money, you can buy Jerry Nuggets quite easily.

Hi,

I have a potential trade with person for an opened blue Jerry Nuggets. In exchange, this person would like 5 blue friars club playing cards. The condition of the JN might not be in the best conditions, see pictures. The box is split and the cards look a little warped.

Do you guys think this is a fair trade? and does anybody know what an opened deck of JN's usually goes for? The friar's club deck usually goes for around $30-40 on ebay.

Thanks,

Update, I have traded for a Black Ghost and Gold Arcane. Still looking for the other three on the list.

The back design looks pretty cool and I love the shade of blue. Can't wait for more info on this.

Hi Guys,

I have some Friars Club Playing Cards that I'm looking to trade. These cards are in mint condition, the orange ones are sealed in the original cellophane and the blue ones came without cellophane. That's the way they came to me from Japan. I do have some blue ones that come in cellophane but I am keeping them for my collection. Theses have been selling for around $30-40 a deck on ebay and are pretty rare.

Here is what I'm looking for:

- Opened Jerry Nuggets (Red or Blue)
- Gold Arcane
- Black Ghost 1st Edition
- Smoke and Mirrors V1 and V2

I'm open to other trades, just send me an email or pm.

Thanks,
Cal

That's too bad that they don't ship outside the US. If anyone if can help me out and order two of each for me, that would be great. I can pay you by paypal to cover the cost of the cards and shipping to Canada.

I really tried and could not come to $100 worth of products to get. Wish I hadn't bought so many decks during the 4th of July sale.

Awesome! Just placed an order.

Wow! I was looking to pick one up but had to rethink this. It's a great piece of history to have but then again...very pricey.

Will they sell out within minutes?nope but within 1-2 days would be my guess.

I think they will sell out faster than 1-2 days, given this is one of the most anticipated releases. Even with the limit imposed on buyers, I believe this could sell out in less than 1-2 hours!

It's pretty cheap compared to the price here
http://www.magiccastle.com.sg/index.php?page=shop.product_details&flypage=flypage.tpl&product_id=3373&category_id=28&option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=1&vmcchk=1&Itemid=1

I wonder how did this shop get so many decks? I thought it was limited to one per person at his shows. Would love to get this deck but not really actively seeking it out.

These are absolutely gorgeous and elegant looking. Wish I had a man cave and a nice poker table to show them off in .
