Heaven and Hell

Limited run of 100 decks. no listed printer but I like the design. At $20/deck it might be a hard sell, But it is an attractive deck regardless, if maybe a little dark for some.

Apparently not hard at all - they're sold out.  There's a notation on the sale page that they only made 100 decks.  Probably an MPC job, or one of their print-on-demand competitors.

I was able to add one to my cart just now and make it to the Proceed To Checkout page.  So doesn't look like they're sold out just yet.

Very interesting...

I decided to give it a shot - somehow they managed to get a few more in stock.  I managed to drop three into my cart - and got told as I went to fill in the shipping/billing info that one was no longer available.  Paid for two, got confirmation by email a moment ago.

Funniest thing, too - I went BACK to the store, put three more in my cart, no problems.  Got as far as the Customer Info window so far, no notice that I over-ordered or that any were bought out from under me.  Makes me wonder if they really did make just a hundred decks.  Also makes me wonder what's up with the ordering software - clearly it doesn't have an accurate count of what's in stock.

Gold version now available. I feel like it looks better in gold; a rare sentiment for me.

I'd save you the trouble.  I have the silver ones and the decks are merely so-so at best.  The stock is fair, not as good as USPC, and the courts are monochrome and use the same image for all four suits.  I was rather disappointed and they certainly aren't worth $20 a pack when there's so much better out there.  I'd say buy it only if you're a hardcore Flying Coffin fan.

I agree with Don.  The tuck was the best part of the silver one.  I passed on the gold.

Thanks for the info guys, sad to hear they aren't up to spec quality wise. I do really like the tuck though, and am happy to have one of each in my collection. A rare aside to my otherwise very quality focused outlook on how cards should be made. They will look good on the wall and will be obscure enough to a casual collector that they will get away with being crappy quality. Not that anyone but me ever sees my collection... Hmm.. I should get a new photo of the whole thing over to the collection post, it's been a while.
