I'd love to have this for my collection, but I feel the value is $30 max.

me too i agree with 30 i dont know where this guy got that price it would of been cool if the colour printed wrong haha a dark blue or purple smoke and mirrors
-
Yeah that would be dope to have!! It's like the Bicycle Irregular deck X D&D V5 haha. It's not worth more than 30ish bucks though (like Loldude said). Pretty sweet find!!
-
Misprints add value to stamps, I know that but playing cards? I wouldn't have thought it'd add much value.
-
This deck is worth $30 without a misprint...
I don't think its worth $300 but its very rare. Its not something thats really sought after though.

i know right for the right price would be awesome to add to the colection haha for his price you could get a deck of jerrys

its somthing only us guys car colectors can aprecheate haha if i really wanted it i would go 35 maybe a little more but just seeing the pic was enough for me if the colour was diffrent that would be a whole other story
-
I think that, since the v5 is worth about 20-25$, the misprint should be worth about 2 or 3 times more, about 75$ max. However, I'm not sure that many collectors would be willing to pay that much for a misprint!
-
I also just thought that it isn't "one of a kind" like stated, due to the fact that probably the printer, or the sheet of boxes were misaligned, so most likely there are at least a few dozen more. Not saying that it detracts much value, but common sense would tell me that there are more then one deck like this.
-
I own a sealed T11 Jaqk deck that is misprinted this way - I had no idea these were valuable. o_O

Ohhhh, lucky. And what would it take to get my hands on it ;)
Anyway this proves a theory that I had that probably every deck has some misprinted like this, since no machine is perfect.
This reminds me of how I collect coins, and the more messed up and the bigger the error, the more valuable it's worth.
-
This is a weird thing but I would not pay $300 for it. Maybe it is worth about $60(double regular ones).

Are they? I think this guy's just chancing his arm a bit. I guess if this sells for silly money, you could throw it up there with a crazy high buy it now price (like, say $300?) and when it goes for $120, some idiot thinks they got a bargain one-of-a-kind deck.
-
Wow! and look at the shipping costs to US! He says he lives in the US, but 8$ shipping for one deck? WTF?

If your paying $300 for a deck, does $8 really make that much of a difference to someone?
I doubt it. Even still though, if I were him, I'd pay for shipping, for the sheer fact that I want to make the customer happy.
-
True, but even 8$ could be a lot!
-
Hey, guys - I've got one BIG question about this "misprint": didn't the V5 cellophane come with a tear strip? This one doesn't have one.
Misprinted coins - valuable
Misprinted stamps - valuable
Misprinted playing cards - valueless. Especially if it's the cards that are misprinted.
If I bought my deck like this, I would have requested a replacement.
The missing tear strip makes me wonder just how genuine a misprint this really is. Printing misaligned from the embossing was pretty common for the S&M deck boxes, but this?
-
i just saw his other items theres a bundle that has jerrys if 18 of us put 20 dollars in we could get it and send it to alex who could do a rondom draw to see what decks we get if those are real would 17 more people be up for gamblin 20 dollars you could get stuck with a bee or jerrys or iaocp golden nuggets etc anyone like my idea ?
-
Don, the cards are not misprinted. It's just the tuck case.
USPCC Kentucky decks do not have colored tear strips unless it's asked for. The strips are incredibly thin and usually impossible to see. This is authentic, rare, and a cool collector's item no doubt. Worth $300? Heck no, but $30? Sure.
-
I would agree that the misprint does add value simply because it is something that some people will desire for their collection. It's fun to have something kind of unique and not something that every card collector can possess in their collection. Hence why the ~1920 bee deck I own is my favorite just because it is so hard to find, even though it is not my favorite looking deck and can guarantee other decks I own handle better.
-
For me, I would be happy to have the misprint.
But I won't pay for it. It's like if it's came to me by luck then I'm lucky.
But I'm not trying to buy that luck.
And surely I wouldn't sell it.

I knew it wasn't the cards. I ws just saying that as an example - bad box is one thing, bad cards is another, but neither is really worth any giant premium over market. If anything, I personally would value them lower.
I'm talking with Blue Crown in the morning about a defective v1 Red deck I got in a trade here - one of the sixes is seriously off-center to the point of ridiculous. I'm also asking for more details about their 1st-anniversary shindig at Fantasma - they invited me to stop by and I have no idea what the hours are or what kind of event it is.
A mistake is (usually) not common. But it's just that to me, a mistake.

Auction is up to $40 now. Reserve is still not met (is the seller crazy?)
Now I wonder how much my Jaqk deck would go for.
-
How high is his reserve? I would have thought it would be a bit higher than the price of normal v5s, but apparently I'm wrong...
-
Buy it now is 300$, so the reserve might be 200$++

Yeah it's getting up there!! I'm curious how much the seller thinks this is worth.
@Alex do you have a misprinted JAQK deck?

Yes he did. He mentioned it in an earlier post that he had one.

Oh shoot I must have missed that, my bad! I would love to see some pictures of that! The Jaqk deck is by far one of my favorite decks.
-
I don't think the seller actually believes these are worth anything. I just think he's trying to make some extra money.

He's gotta think they are worth something! They are unique and even many of us said they were worth a little more than a normal V5 (not all of us). I was guessing he thought they were worth a tidy sum, which I don't think they are.

This reminds me of the guy (I think was either Curt or CBJ) who got the black crown deck with one of the cards in front of the tuck-box flap. It isn't necessarily worth any more, but it is kinda neat and cool to own.

Wow, I've never heard of that! That must be really fun for a rising card effect!

Except once you use it you lose a cool piece of your collection, and it can only be used once, and I don't see how you could make a card rise from that.

You can do a cool card to pocket effect, force a card, and "pull" a card out of a sealed deck and reveal it was their selection. You can just reseal a deck and do the same effect, though.

Here is a link the my thread of the black crown with the card misplaced.
http://aethercards.com/discourse/index.php?topic=1253.msg19050#msg19050
Although, I think this v5 misprint is much cooler than having a card accidentally being outside the tuck flap, but I am not complaining.
-
There was this trick that Alex Pandrea told me about at the party. My deck has a six (I think of spades) that was cut severely off-center. He mentioned there's an illusion that makes it look like you're moving the print on the card off-center - using my "defective" card as the gaff for that trick would allow me to hand it out for inspection afterwards!
So aside from gaff value, I don't see defective cards/decks/boxes/etc. as having a premium value over a regular deck.
-
for me something that is mis printed is one of a kind. You can always find standard bike decks, what about the one that has a few cards messed up, its now one of a kind, in my eyes i would love to have one, for that price though i think not.

Exactly!! That's why people think it's worth more, because there most likely ins't another like it! I would pay a little extra for a one of a kind deck, but not that much ???
-
The seller's trying to create value by pushing the rarity of the defect. The fact that it's been bid this high and the reserve hasn't been met is a good sign that this seller had huge dollar signs in his eyes, once he got over the fact that his deck was defective.
It's kind of odd to me, though. Aren't the decks hand-packed into bricks and boxes? Wouldn't this have been caught by USPC? It's either the tuck sheet shifted when it was folded into a box (less likely, since I think it would not really form into a box, just an open mess) or that the tuck sheet was a little off-center when being cut (more likely). That would mean that this deck may be "rare" but not exactly one-of-a-kind, either - all the other boxes on that sheet would have the same defect. I can see a card defect getting missed, since packing the cards into boxes at USPC is completely automated, but once they've been made, I'd think someone in QC would have spotted something. Unless they are also automatically packed into bricks as well, of course. And even with an automated process, aren't the new facilities equipped with laser sensors to detect off-center prints and cuts?
Someone with a more intimate knowledge than me would be able to answer these questions better than I could.

It has been relisted with a Buy It Now price of $125, no bidding.

I have an Infinity deck thats off center too, and the silver foil is a bit off. It's not as dramatic as the one here.
He'll sell it for a profit, no doubt about that. Remember misprinted coins were worthless until a few people started collecting them. As with all 'value', it is in the eye of the beholder, even currency.

he obviously trying to make a profit .. he listing the v5 for 125

I'm guessing he wasn't seeing his reserve even close to being met. Now it's at a nearly down-to-earth price.

This is indeed very true. But the numbers he's looking for - it's like he's trying to create a misprint market single-handedly. His eye seems to be beholding it at a far higher price than most others!
I'm still hoping to win one of his other auctions - S&M v2-6, with the v4 without the deck seal.

Wow, really?!? I might never have known that - unless of course I saw the post two before yours and READ IT THERE FIRST!
I don't think Aaron has an opening for a parrot on his crew, either, Hawjinjian. Stop molting already!
-
Yeah I'm not surprised to see this get relisted at a slightly more reasonable price. I'd still be surprised to see it go. Only time will tell haha

Honestly can you two please take this to a PM or the lolaq. I'm getting really sick of seeing you two go at it. It's just destroying threads for me. If you have a problem settle it somewhere else!

I'm in agreement with you on that. Even the current price is just too high. He should just put it out there at some reasonable price - whatever an unaltered deck is going for - and watch the bidders handle the market adjustments of its value for him rather than trying to artificially manipulate them.

I apologize if this is hampering your experience, but I'm getting fed up with his lazy posts. He spouts off unrelated nonsense or something that someone just said only a short while earlier. At least when I'm making my responses to him, I'm making an effort to include real post information in there as well, and not posting just for the sake of being fed up with him.
I'll try to rein it in. I just hope he opts to do the same, but I'm not counting on it. I'd be happy to be proved wrong!
