I don't know if I've missed this or if it's ever been mentionned before, but since these will be only sold in Asia, will any resellers cary these?

They did release some decks in the US.
I believe it was 288 and you were able to order a max of 12.
They sold them on Aug 4th if you emailed your order to them.

Apparently they sold out in about 10 minutes.

Ah. Thank you for telling me. I haven't been active lately, so I wasn't up to date on those news. :)

I just got these in the mail today!!!








Yeah, they do say "Linoid" finish on the side, and boy do these handle well!!! My impression after an hour and a half of abuse is that these cards handle just about the same as the Shadow Masters, but with slightly thicker stock. I'm not too sure about this being the real "Linoid" finish, but the finish itself feels a bit like the finish on the 727 banknote Aristocrats, and they have yet to clump despite my terrible sweaty palms handling the cards for more than an hour, so I have no reason to doubt the quality of the finish. AND THE UNCUT SHEET IS BEAUTIFUL :D

Edit:PS: I have one deck that I would be willing to trade off, first come first serve I guess... Depending on what you're offering for trade. I would rather not sell this at some exuberant price to a poor fellow collector and just have a good'ol fashioned trade, after all I'm a collector, not a business man looking to turn a profit :D

Did you request an uncut or did you get that as a give away.
I don't remember them offering the uncut sheets

I won a contest and they gave me 3 free decks, one signed, and a signed uncut sheet :D

I know I got one deck for free. Can't wait to get it.
Do you guys even read this? Like I could have the meaning of life here and I doubt you would know it.
