I'm not too surprised by the decks listed, but I thought there'd be more limited decks on that list. I know 1. and 5. are up there because you created them, but with everything else, I'm flabbergasted over the listings.

I believe you guys have been mistaken because I only see the v6. I guess it was a typo.

When I spoke to USPCC.. one of their top selling decks is the Bicycle Tragic Royalty

I was shocked, but it kinda makes sense.  They are available everywhere.

I'm actually not really surprised. I took a minute to imagine which decks I thought would be in there before looking at the list, and I guessed a couple E decks, a couple Karnivals, as well as the premier back, the tattoo, and the Alchemy deck. I forgot about the v6s, but they don't surprise me either. The Ann Stokes, Brown rider back, and Series 1800s do though. Thx!

And it just so happens that his own deck is number 1? I find it hard to believe that deck would be his best selling deck but then again if he is one of the only sellers of that deck then it sort of makes sense.

Actually, seven of the 10 decks on the list are limited editions.  Why should the list surprise you so much?


And it just so happens that his own deck is number 1? I find it hard to believe that deck would be his best selling deck but then again if he is one of the only sellers of that deck then it sort of makes sense.

Of course his own deck, a limited edition, would be a top seller.  Think of it like this: if you asked Alex what his best selling deck is, it would be his own.  Same thing if you asked Jonathan Bayme at T11 (since he does sell some non-T11 decks, it's a worthwhile question).  When the Premier Backs came out, his was the only game in town, so to speak.  Same thing with his Brown Rider Backs, which is why they're #5 on the hit parade.  They'd probably be higher if he printed more of them.

BTW: I really did like the Premier Backs a lot.  I thought it was one of the best applications of metallic ink on a deck to date.  Decks with only half the faces in metallics always seemed strange to me.  The back was a little strange at first, but I came to like it for its simplicity.

As I stated when I posted the list, it was based on the quantity of decks sold. We printed 2500 decks of the premier back and we sold all of them. That is why it was number one because we have not sold 2500 of any other deck. If I was just promoting a deck that I made, the brown rider back would have been number 2!!!!

Thanks!
