Yes, that's the deal!  She's waiting to get back home, where some of her trade fodder is located.

Actually only my v4 is in Thailand. All of others is in Japan or I'll buy from Japan.

nice trade man .. what is the trick deck?

[dmbaggs]

That's a pretty sweet trade for both of you! Some awesome decks for both parties. I hope to be able to make great trades like that in the future with other discourse members!


How rare is the green tally-ho deck?

Yeah, I agree. It looks pretty awesome for both sides! Nice trade!

Lalita - the Steampunk deck now is available in TWO versions.

The USPC version is in an unembossed box with a gold deck seal.

The T11 version is in an embossed box with no deck seal (this is the one I got for you).

Just so you know. 

[phantom1412]

Yeah, I want the T11's steampunk.


Also I edited about the trick decks.

How rare is the green tally-ho deck?

Green tally ho is made in US, but to be sold only in Japan.
So, it's rare in the united states or any other countries.
But, as far as I know this deck is not limited. (I'm not so sure about this)
But this deck is generally sold in local magic shop or online store only.
So, it's not easy to get hand on this deck if you are not living here.
And, it's not cheap. it's about 14-15$ per deck not including shipping from the online store to your house.

Look at the entry on the Playing Cards Wiki for more information on the green Tally Ho deck.  It's actually a boxed set of one deck with some stickers, made for Tomohiro Maeda.  There's also a light blue version of the Tally Ho circle back gold frame deck that's a Japan exclusive, made for the same magician.

Hey, Lalita - are those light blue gold frame TH decks still available? 

[phantom1412]

Those light blue gold trim decks are sold out already.

[Don Boyer]

Those light blue gold trim decks are sold out already.

I figured as much!  Same for the other two gold trim TH decks here in the States.

liata, just realized this but its don and I not don and me

[Don Boyer]

liata, just realized this but its don and I not don and me

Well if we're getting technical, it's "Lalita", not "liata"! 


As long as someone can be understood, grammar that's a bit less than perfect has never been an issue here...

[Lushbob]

liata, just realized this but its don and I not don and me

Actually, I hate to say it, but it's actually completely grammatically correct to say 'a trade between Don and me'. It would be incorrect to say 'a trade between Don and I'. And if we're getting picky, there's a whole bunch of punctuation issues in your message...

You are correct - but again, as long as someone is understood, the actual grammar and syntax is not critical.  It's when someone writes a post that is utterly indecipherable that it gets annoying.  Her post is clear enough - and I think that's enough said about that, gents...  Stay on topic.

He's lying guys, don't listen to him!  It's very important.  Lushbob is totally correct; using 'Don and I' here is grammatically incorrect.  This is important.

As for staying on-topic; we're shooting the breeze about a trade we're not personally involved with, anyway.  It's kinda a non-topic beyond the first post,s o we may as well just chat if something comes up IMO.

[phantom1412]

Thanks everyone for fixing my grammar. LoL

OK, fine.  But this is a casual forum, and I've seen some ATROCIOUS spelling, syntax, grammar - but in many if not most cases, I could understand the person's intent.  We aren't being graded, so perfection isn't required - just a clear understanding.  And I agreed that Lushbob is correct, despite what many people think is correct usage - but if someone did write "btw Don and I" I'd still know what they were talking about.  If grammar was a requirement around here, at least half the active members would have been booted weeks ago!  I don't claim perfection, but I do strive for it - others, not so much, but whatever.

It's better than some of the nonsense I tried wading through from a couple of other members I can think of...utterly undecipherable gibberish passed on as conversation.  I'll grant that English may not have been their primary language, but at least TRY to be clear and understood in an English-speaking forum if you plan on contributing a great deal.

Thanks to Don that understand the non-native English speakers. I think if the mistake doesn't change the meaning then everything is okay. But look at the good side, when people are correcting me, I get chances to know what is wrong so that I can improve my grammar using. So, thanks to everyone as well.
