Nice photos. What's with the dragon? Can someone give a summary in English?

Apparently it's part of De'vo's personal collection. Nothing relevant.

Had a smile seeing this, turned to frown when I saw their shipping costs I don't get why some cost soo much shipping (Ace King on Ebay and this) yet some have just the right amount of shipping such as E and Bmpokerworld? are they different postal companies?

Maybe, but other variables must be taken into place. What I really like about Ellusionist is that they have multiple shipping options to choose from. They have standard USPS and they also have UPS. However, you do have some companies that overcharged for their shipping, such as Dan and Dave and theory11. There are reasons behind this too! On Dan and Dave's case, they charge around $7 and $8 for domestic shipping because they ship their products with Priority Mail from the United States Postal Service. That method of shipping provides them with not only a tracking number, but also with a faster time for shipment. So, technically, you are getting what you pay for. On the other hand, although they charge shipped based on weight, there must be a minimum anyone has to pay. Maybe $6 for example. Although they don't ship using Priority Mail, they do ship with tracking in a regular square or rectangle box, and that's what's probably causing the hiked up shipping prices. No matter how much you pay for shipping, you do have to remember that some companies to charge handling and extra padding prices on their products for bubble wrap and other amenities like that. : )

Finally a release date! I don't know if I'll be getting these or not because they aren't really rare and they don't handle great either... But the box does look very clean and elegant.

DelMagic · « **Reply #131 on:** May 12, 2012, 08:00:21 PM »

I have had a refund from De'vo when shipping charges were less than what I was originally charged, but I wouldn't count on that always happening.

As for Dan and Dave, the problem is that their process doesn't appear to allow for the flat-rate priority mail shipping option which still allows for domestic tracking. I wish they would incorporate that. Since I am on the east coast, shipping priority mail based on weight from California is very expensive. If you live in their broad postal zone, I would think it isn't too bad.

"Really aren't rare"? Nathan, what are you smoking? They may not be the rarest decks on planet Earth, but they're hardly common. And you talk about handling as if you've used them before! I've made assumptions based on other gilded decks, but these could be something completely different.

less than 4000 .. not really rare ?? what is consider rare to you ?? i know that 4000 seem very common this days but it is still consider rare .. the don't handle great ?? i agree gilded deck do not handle great but maybe this is different ?? i only handled golden gilded edges before but this will be silver gilded edges .. do not go around assuming thing you never know

Evan · « **Reply #135 on:** May 13, 2012, 12:21:52 AM »

I was excited for these but now, after it was delayed and all, I'm not that excited. I may pick a couple up to review and to be able to use a gilded deck for the first time.

I don't think that will make a difference. Either way, it won't handle like a deck that doesn't have gilded edges.

Thanks Jin Jian! - I'll repost your message with a picture for better formatting and clarification.

(He also attached it with the picture shown below)

About 22 hours later, he posted:

"Blades decks, clips and boxes will be for SALE ON 18 MAY AT 0700 a.m. DENVER COLORADO TIME."

About 7 hours from his previous post, he posted again saying:

"We worked with Joe Porper to make these very special "Blood" Edition Porpers with highly reflective blood red paint that you have to see! We have made a few of these without the engraved Blades logo. These special Porper clips will only be $34.99, and the engraved LIMITED EDITION will be only $49.99 THESE badboys are HOT!"

Looks like De'Vo's coming out with sick products!

Pretty much every custom deck not printed by major companies (D&D, T11, E, TBC) are runs of 5,000 and less.

Don, I said "not really rare", meaning not extremely rare. "really not rare" is something else!

Don, I said "not really rare", meaning not extremely rare. "really not rare" is something else!

At less than 4,000 decks, they're more rare than ANY SINGLE DECK released by Ellusionist, all but one deck (White Centurions) from T11, every deck from D&D, and most new custom deck runs with minimums of 5,000 +/- 10%...

If that's "not really rare" to you, in a world of over 6.8 BILLION PEOPLE, then what is?

phantom1412 · « **Reply #140 on:** May 13, 2012, 09:45:50 AM »

I just think that they are 5000 decks printed, but released less than 4000 decks.
They did not say anything about how many are printed.
However, I think they will be one of the rare decks. (Which is actually a lot rare decks.)

Jin Jian · « **Reply #141 on:** May 13, 2012, 11:39:25 AM »

what i think is that there is 5000 printed .. and he say there were damaged so around 4000 remain .. that what i think but kinda crazy thought over 1000 plus get damaged .

NathanCanadas · « **Reply #142 on:** May 13, 2012, 02:06:53 PM »

Exactly my point Don. We have different definitions of "very rare" though. And you forgot the Gold Monarchs, as only 111 were printed, or, at least, released. What I'm saying is that apart from big companies, every custom deck on the market was made with 5,000 decks or less.

Aaron · « **Reply #143 on:** May 13, 2012, 05:23:12 PM »

The blood Metals were reprinted because of the damage. He gave 1 away in a contest and thats it. They are releaseing 4000 Bloods and I forget how many Blood Metals.

He got those back in April because De'vo was giving them to people who showed their reaction of the Pro Cardistry deck.
