VortexHead's decks are not bicycle. And jmrock's deck... disregard him.

Thanks for the laugh so far guys

Here's another snippet, I really should have received these by now as they were sent out on Monday but hopefully they'll come tomorrow otherwise it's an agonising wait until Monday. I dont actually know what the back looks like yet so I'm eager to find out. It will be kind of amusing if when they do come I hate the back design and the feel of these.

@VortexHead, I must have seen this deck before, but I just can not recall it. I give up now.

Well, it's my turn. The following are the pics I took 2 days ago. Opening the package was like peeling an onion, there were 6 layers. But it is a fairer quiz to guess the name of the decks.

You are all just some second rate Brad Fultons... now the way he did it... sending a pic every day or every other day... such intrigue... such suspense... those cryptic clues - oh they still haunt me - "The Dragon will see you soon"... "Watch your back in Chinatown"... all leading up to that fantastically mediocre deck release... that is how you do it!!! Blahahaha... Just playing... LOL for real...

digipunk · « **Reply #37 on:** February 03, 2012, 08:51:14 PM »

@jmrock, what's your deck in the pic? Is it a deck?

I am going out soon, and here is my last guessing game. The following package is on its way to me.

There are 6 decks, the 2 dark green ones are EATCT v1. Then what are the other 4?
(In the picture, it's jmrock's desk and keyboard, so ask him for the original picture if needed)

xZEROx · « **Reply #41 on:** February 03, 2012, 10:35:30 PM »

I think one of them is the Aristocrat Bank Note. Not sure if I spot a Blades deck, and maybe a Transducer deck?

dmbaggs · « **Reply #42 on:** February 03, 2012, 10:36:31 PM »

one looks like an arrco deck but I can't be sure

jmrock · « **Reply #43 on:** February 04, 2012, 12:14:44 AM »

I'll spoil the fun Digipunk... We're already jealous of all the incredible decks you've posted... The others are yes, a '40s Sealed Tax Stamp Russell Aristocrat 727 - WOW What a deck!!!, Sealed V.Slims, Old School Tahoe, & Yes, a red c. 1973 Playboy Bicycle Deck - WOW!!! Another winner!!! How is everyone on these posts not taking advantage Playboy Bicycle sales thread??? I'm amazed!!! http://aethercards.com/discourse/index.php?topic=1627.0 ;-) Also, I was just playing around about the other deck I posted... It was a Red Ohio Bee Deck...

digipunk · « **Reply #44 on:** February 04, 2012, 07:09:58 AM »

@jmrock, they are not incredible and you know I only value the 727 and Playboy.

I already have many Golden Nuggets including the Atlantic City edition. I got this set simply because of its mint condition. The tin box might be the best one I've ever seen on eBay so far. The former owner had a full case of these from the '70s (he even had all the buses that went to Atlantic City), but gave them all away for years. This might be his last one or two sets.

Although the box says 1977, they should be produced in the 2nd half of the '80s to my knowledge.

I like the original Aristocrat 727s much and was lucky to have the chance to get the Back No.1. Unfortuantely its former owner is not a card collector and there's no story about this deck. The 1-pack tax stamp denotes 1940-1965, however, the range can be narrowed to 1955-1965 according to the cellophane. Well, from now on I will have to look forward the Back No.2(s) to complete my Aristocrat 727 collection.

The Bicycle Playboy, you know, it is attractive and collectible ;-)
Other decks in the pic are also good, but... just got them for collecting. I will use the Tahoe and V.Slims to see if they are so good as people usually say.

@VortexHead, We are waiting for your answer

This morning I received the package in my 2nd pic. So these are the 6 decks:

EDIT: Snippets have been taken down, I dont think I'll be getting the decks so the game can be forgotten about

So I just won an auction on ebay for a sealed deck of cards, I also won an auction a few days back for the same deck but a used one. I dont know much about the deck other than the company who had them produced, I dont know the limit or the company who manufacters them either but I do think the box looked too good imo to pass up on, so I'm taking a risk buying 2 decks but they weren't expensive. Just for fun, here's a cropped pic of the box, any guesses what they are.....

Can you at least show us the photo of what you wanted but are now not getting? Inquiring minds want to know.

this ^ plus I'm curious why the sudden change? Why won't you be getting the decks?

I'm just curious, if its a sensative topic then it's alright if you dont say it

xZEROx · « **Reply #48 on:** February 08, 2012, 04:01:21 PM »

I'd really want to know what the deck is.
I'm guessing maybe its because of shipment issues? I've had problems with that, some sellers refused to ship internationally, even as insured packages.
