If there’s one thing I’m willing to wait for as long as it takes, it’s a Lotrek deck.

I feel compelled to express my top10 Lotrek decks: 1. Venexiana Gold - it’s where my obsession for Lotrek started, and it also took me a long while to finally secure a copy. But for the whole time I was buying by the thousands left and right, Venexiana Gold has always been my deepest desire 2. Blue ...

Dondorf Luxus-Whist-Karte no. 158 (Rokoko-Bild) Probably pre-1906, cause from 1906 they printed indices and added a joker. Deck has been nicknamed “Rococo” although it doesn’t seems to represent a particular fashion. It’s one of my favourite Dondorf for the quality of the printing and cleanliness of...

Dondorf Stuart Zeit No. 179

Characters in Stuart period costumes, chromolitography. German edition with German suits.
The J of clubs reads B.Dondorf and Frankfurt.

Dondorf Fynste Java Speelkaarten no. 17 1879 Dondorf made a game for the Gumprich & Strauss company in Batavia, now Jakarta, whose ace cards refer to Indonesia, the former Dutch East Indies. The kings and queens are members of the Dutch royal family: King of hearts = King William III, Queen of h...

The next deck is so beautiful I had to squeeze all the cards in the shots.
Thanks to atzenhofer that made me go search for this beauty.

Naipe Español by Mingote, Fournier 1967 (according to the date on the joker)

The next two decks are the same deck and they are the only tarot decks printed by Dondorf. Both are chromolitography prints made after 1905. (I summon the experts for the dating :) ) Dondorf Tarot Microscopique N. 245 Despite the name they are tarot size and they come with a full deck of 78 cards an...

So I have a bit of a backlog.

Let’s start with a couple.

Dondorf’s patience version of the Four Continents. It’s a mini deck but so detailed and gorgeous.


And Dondorf Forcolor n. 487

I can confirm I have 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 10, J and Q of hearts
Also the J of clubs but I think you weren’t doubting its existence.

-3- this is absurd… If I read correctly on Lotrek’s latest post, Mystery III will be a different thing than Craft Edition. And this “reprint of the supposed Mystery III” is now housed as QALIF Gawd, Lotrek, ENOUGH with the plot twists already Kevork, I like you, but I started to feel Lotrek is like...

I just realized something: I love that you open them :D My kind of crazy :ugdance: :ugthink: I also love the execution. You can tell much thought was put into where things go. Beautiful. I always thought that decks are meant to be appreciated in every little detail. No point in keeping them under p...

These are the kind of packages I love to receive. (not in the shot: an uncut sheet and all of Elettra’s previous decks but the most limited ones)

So after a long long time, this thread is due an update. Group photo! (not as straight as I wanted it to be and with a block in the wrong position) *drumroll* Well, except for Redemption Stories VIV gold on gold - which is already on its way to me - this is my COMPLETE* Lotrek collection: IMG_6307.j...

Had my max at 2k, dunno seemed a bit over the highest end but apparently not lol. Still far into NPCCD completion, so I’m in no rush atm.

Yes, I got them together

Well if it’s only 190+60, it might be the case

Lotrek just confirmed the version for the highest two tiers has silver on gold foil backs, while the lower two tier get a gold on gold foil. Only thing, the second time he wrote 1/160, probably a mistyping.

Ouch, I really don’t like the sound of this. I hope it’s just a tuck swap.

New year bump, will consider any starting price. Thanks

Year 1 shipping

Of course I buy stuff and the price goes through the roof. I wonder if it’s some curse or if I’m too stubborn.
Surely it must be a curse because there was at least another person willing to buy for at least close to that amount. (And probably the numbers where extremely inviting)

Decided to pay way above market value for this one so hit me and I might make your day, thanks

Only one deck missing

hi, looking to buy Elettra’s Pinocchio Vermilion Black, so I can finally close and complete the set. Thank you

bump, getting very close to completion

As a horror movie fan, can’t pass on these. They look sick.

I’m kinda partial to Chris and his playing cards even though I never bought the escape room game. So thanks for pointing this out

Forgive me if I’m misreading this but isn’t “697 maximum print run” tied to the sales? I mean if only 250 people preorder it, won’t the print run be 250? (or 300ish so he can have a little extra stock)

If you ever desire to part with the prototype I would be more than interested though

I also have all the decks already but the prototype was too inviting so I bit the bullet.

I went for whale, I couldn’t help myself.
