I got the email too.
So, I think they are talking about the 5th march pre order.
The pre order you get is the special one I guess.

It's for the contest winners. We could pre-order right now before everyone else on the 5th. It's not too much difference, just a few days. You'll get your chance tomorrow!

Yeah we were talking about their last email (see Don's post). We know about the pre-orders and everything. Don was just a little confused with their last email.

I meant the "special" one she said. That one is for the contest winners, where a link is provided for us to preorder right now. I've gotten the other email for the general subscribers too.

Yeah, I think you're right.  I assumed it was for contest winners since I got the "pre-pre-order" email.  But since non-contest winners are receiving them as well, they must be offering this to everyone.

Well, folks, if you want to get them cheaper than retail, this is your chance.  I could be wrong, but I think the larger orders are more economical not only because of a "% off" price, but also because they'll get cheaper shipping on a per-deck basis.  But still, it's not cheap.

Too many expensive decks out now.  The shipping issue on this isn't helping, either - now I know exactly how Asian and European collectors feel about new decks released in America!

More news on the Mana deck - and many of you won't like it.  I got this as a contest winner for one deck, just arrived in my mailbox earlier this morning.  Forgive any formatting glitches - the Discourse is grumpy...

Hi Friends,

Since our last email to everyone announcing the pre-order sale, we've had floods of replies excited about the pre-order sale. We're happy to see that you're all stoked about this.

After much talk and debate, we have decided to add more value to this pre-order sale.
  • Uncut sheet giveaway - When we close the pre-order form, we will enter each pre-order customer name into a raffle draw for one uncut sheet. And we will ship that uncut sheet along with the winner's order.
  • Upon official release the Mana deck SRP will increase to $10.95. That means that this pre-order sale is your chance to get your deck at only $9.95 or cheaper. After the pre-order sale, the deck goes up to $10.95, so take advantage of this pre-order sale.

  • We're all excited and ready for March 5. Thank you again for all your support!

    Best regards,
    The Mana Deck Team

    So, I have a chance at getting a free uncut.  But anyone who didn't win a contest gets to pay a HIGHER price, IN ADDITION to costly shipping.  Not cool.
This is retarded >:(  Why would they want to make only their contest winners happy? Who would decide to sell decks for more money to people who are already sad they didnt win a contest, have extreme shipping costs and pre-sell a bunch of decks to the people who already have decks >:( >:( >:(  I really wanted some of these but will be skipping them now >:(
That is the dumbest thing I've ever heard! Im a contest winner and I still think that it should be the people who HAVEN'T won contests that can preorder already.

I will skip them mainly because of the price of the deck and the shipping method they use. $10 may buy one of collectible OOP decks here, even those secret Skulkor brothers sell their decks for $7 each. If I paid $9.95 or $10.95 for a newly released deck, I would think myself stupid. On the other hand, I know EMS is expensive, but... don't think these decks need to use EMS to trace.

Guys if you read over the past couple pages you'll see that this ISN'T true!! There was some confusion there, but it is for all those who pre-order not just the contest winners. Everybody got that email, not just contest winners. It refers to March 5th the date of open pre-orders for everybody. So they aren't screwing anybody over.

The pricing is pretty nuts, but I still think this deck is worth at least owning a couple...whether you get them from the source or reseller.

No problems on my end either! I ended up going for these since I've been a huge fan but I went for less than I was originally going to buy. Still excited though! Now just to wait for that paypal email

So did they still give you a shipping quote, or will that all be settled via email? I'm wondering if theres any chance of a cheaper shipping option other than $20 for 1-3 decks because that's just too much for my wallet :(

I just pre-ordered a brick....but if the shipping is crazy (more then $40), I may need to decline my order. These just look so beautiful and elegant!

I feel like Romeo betraying the Montague's if that makes sense...on second thought it probably doesn't...well screw it...it's late and I'm tired...I just hope I don't hate myself when I wake up for ordering all of these  ???
