Can you take a picture of the side of the deck, so we can see how a black deck really looks like?
No, as the deck hasn't been cut yet. This will be done next week. These cards are cut by hand.

But it will look like black Hell! 8-)

I'm PRAYING these tucks get to EPPC safely and stay safe while there until they are filled, sealed, and sent to your delivery company. Hate to see another problem.
Move on, nothing to see here.

Yikes !
You must feel so, so restricted and encumbered by these contretemps .... doubly so when recalling that this fabulously freaked-out deck was conceived in the logjam/blowback from your previous setbacks ....
I sincerely hope you can ride this perfect storm, secure in the knowledge that we are all surely offering our best wishes, of strength, perseverance, whatever it takes, for your great spirit (yes !) to keep on keeping on ....
Best of Best Wishes to you always Lotrek ! :ugking: :ugdance:

Yes, black mass is waiting for ICONS which has priority. But they should be ready soon as well. ;)

For those of us that pledged for both are you sending the Macabre's first, then the Black Mass? Or are you going to wait for the Black Mass's to be done and send them all at once?

FYI I could care less either way.

I'll ship the Grotesk Macabre immediately. Black Mass will be sent from Greece so there is no point in waiting.

Pics as soon as you can, please :mrgreen:

Btw, I'm a bit confused. You produce the decks in Taiwan, and the tucks in Greece as I understood this (since they will be numbered and signed). So the decks are in the U.S. now, are the tuck cases there as well? Are you shipping them from Greece all the way to the U.S. and having someone manually put the decks inside?

This seems a bit like a logistical nightmare :shock:

Tuck cases were made in Greece, then sent to Taiwan where they put the cards in, then the completed decks were sent to US. Not too complicated actually... ;)
