I was on DnD website, and when I tried to add 1000 decks of Fulton's (for the fun of it) it said  I could only purchase 576, so I figured that meant that's how many were left.

I did the same for the Fantastique decks, and it would only let me purchase 432, so again I figured that's how many were left.

I posted that was how many were left on here.

I did the math though and both of those are divisible by 12. 48 for the Fulton's, and 36 for Fantastique.

That is also weird though because both of those are divisible by 12.


Do you think this is how many of each deck are left, or is there just a deck/ brick limit?

I would assume your are correct and that would be the amount they have left. I would not really make sense to have some random deck/brick limit that are different for those decks. Generally that's how the community finds out how decks are left in stock anyhow.

I wouldn't say it's a random number. It's just so odd to me that they have EXACTLY 3 Gross of Fantastiqué, and exactly 4 Gross of Fulton's, don't you think?

I tried the same thing with the Fantastique monday or tuesday and it wouldn't let me add more than 688 decks to my cart.  I would assume that they coming close to selling out.

Yes, I guess. But it could just be that their system is set up to record and round to the nearest brick instead of each individual deck. I don't know why that would be the case but I guess its possible.

I think it's still possible that those decks are left exactly as bricks.
But that doesn't matter. I think it will sold out this year.

i actually purchased 31 decks of those fulton's myself. it's a minimum of a brick, not exactly in bricks. so i guess it's likely that the number has been rounded to the nearest brick.

Munro159 said he got 688 into his cart - that's not divisible by 12.  It could be simple coincidence that recent totals are divisible by 12.  Not impossible when you factor in that a lot of bulk purchases are by the brick.

I have done this several times myself just to check up on how many left. So I would say the divisibility is merely coincidence.

In a true HOLY COW moment, I just attempted adding a mess of both decks into my cart and was given the same exact numbers as Loldudex2!  He posted 26 hours before I checked, and the numbers are unchanged?  I get the feeling D&D are holding out on the exact numbers because of guys like us trying to find the exact numbers...

Hmm... I got the same numbers too! Either no one has bought them since then, or they're holding out on us. But I think no one has bought them

After 26 hours, not a SINGLE deck of EITHER design sold?  Highly unlikely.  This is D&D, not Papa Clem's General Store, Bar, Bait Shack and Outhouse out of Hoot Owl's Holler, Mississippi...

I'm almost positive someone would have purchased at least ONE deck of one or the other. I'm beginning to believe there is a maximum you can buy for some reason, but who knows.

the numbers are still the same i would assume it is the maximum allowed for purchase. This would make sense because Both are limited decks so they wouldn`t want 1 person to go and buy all the decks just to resell and make a huge profit.
People say nothing's impossible, but I do nothing everyday.

Today I found something that reminded me of you. But don't worry I flushed and everything went back to normal.
