It's just the hat company's logo/branded deck.  Nothing special unless you are a crazy hat person or a crazy card collector who buys everything Bicycle...  ;)

Looks like it's in pre-order stage and will be released on April 1st. Don't worry about April Fool's. Asians aren't into that kind of thing.

I'm not a huge fan of it so far. The box looks bland. I don't want to judge it too quickly but so far it doesn't seem like a whole lot of effort was put into this.

How does one get these cards?

Everything is in Jap!!!

It's the same as the green tally ho decks, if anyone knows how to get them? Pls post it
Or if anyone is willing to sell them for a reasonable price, pls PM me.
I live in Singapore.

I like the brand, so I would end up getting a deck if the price were right.

Did anyone notice that there are no diamonds? I really like the color of the rider backs. @dudeee maybe we can share shipping :)

I'm sure that's an oversight!

Looking at a Google Translated version of the page, it's selling for 800 yen (approx. US$8) and only 5,000 were made.  Sales begin April 1, but you appear to be able to pre-order - no mention of international shipping.

It might be a good idea to get friendly with a Japanese member of the board, or at least one residing in Japan, and make a deal to get some.

Have you tried running the page through Google Translate?  It doesn't work as well with Japanese sites, but it's worth a shot at the least.

Best I can tell they don't even ship outside of Japan. I'm hoping these will pop up somewhere else.

Haha these are cool, very hipster :P Since hearts and diamonds are the same, that was probably a mistake. I love the blue recoloring!

here is the another pic of the box,,, why the box looks different than the one on the top??? the website shows this is limited for person who spend 8,400円 on their website;;;; is there 2 edition??
Title: Re: NEW DECK -- Bicycle New Era
Post by: xZEROx on April 03, 2012, 08:01:35 AM
The difference @cji1321's point at is the colour of the words "Poker 808" and "Playing Cards" towards the bottom of the tuckbox.
Gold edition for purchasing over JPY8,400 (approx. $100USD) and regular white edition that could be directly purchased? Mmm..someone needs to confirm this...

Wasn't sure if I should create an all new post for this, but there was an issue with the company I had ordered a brick from in Japan and I did not receive what I had ordered... Thus, I only have a few decks available and I am offering them up on eBay... I cannot order them from the company I ordered them from because they are sold out... Amazon Japan and New Era Japan are also sold out... Those of you who feel that you are able to get them for a lot less please let me know because I have been trying for days to no avail... Thanks... And if you are still interested on getting a deck while you still can then feel free to bid... From what I understand they are nonexistent in the States right now... Take care... -J.

I would gladly buy $100 in hats to score the Gold Version, but I spoke to a rep from New Era and was told they are not available currently...


Below please find the link for this deck... It is by far my favorite new release in quite some time...

I'm in the process of cutting a deal with someone in Japan, a trade for these and a few others, but it's for a personal quantity, not a trade quantity.  In the long run it would likely cost me less, though shipping to Japan for trades ain't cheap.

Don,

are you making a trade for a gold one??



I spoke with customer service at NewEra in Japan, the promotion for the gold decks is over.. and all the gold decks are gone.

If you have a gold deck, or know someone that does.. please PM me.

Lol it's three @jmrock. I'm not sure if the gold one's gonna turn up any time soon. The promotion started at the end of Feb, but I haven't seen anywhere that has showed signs of it being resold by New Era customers. This could be a long wait, and needs some good search to spot even one.

OK, first of all, no gold.  Couldn't get any.

Second of all - where were you guys when Lalita/Phantom1412 posted that she was BUYING some of these and asked if anyone was interested?  Did you oversleep that morning and miss the train?  :))

[Sale] decks from Japan (http://aethercards.com/discourse/index.php?topic=2244.0)

She's considering placing another order, though whether she can still get the New Era deck remains to be seen.

Well I was able to get one of these and just got it in the mail today, got it on creador.jp apparently or something like. I will have a review up on my youtube channel tomorrow, www.youtube.com/vjose32

Well apparently that link I gave you doesn't work, but it is the one that was on the stuff that came with it so I don't know. But I did find it through rakuten.co.jp originally, but there are some sellers on there that don't ship outside Japan or Asia.

No I wish, haha. I just got a regular one, but i'm willing to bet the only real difference between the two is the box and nothing else.

They said the only difference is just the box. Cards are the same.
