[BUY/ISO] need Madison Players, Sentinels, V1 Empire

[mr48]

Hi everyone,

I'm looking to buy a deck of Madison Players, Theory11 Sentinels, and the original V1 Empire if anyone has some that they're willing to let go for a reasonable price. I dont need them to be sealed or in cellophane, as long as the cards and tuck-box are in mint-like condition (aside from the seal, obviously).

I'm currently living in Germany and you can reach me by PM's or at mike48@gmail.com

Thanks!

Which Sentinels did you want, v1 or v2, or does it matter?

To be honest I'm not even sure what the differences are. I've heard that only the v2 deck has embossing on the case, but even that is just something I saw on a forum and am not 100% certain about. Could you explain the differences if you happen to have both?

As far as which one I want, I happened to order a deck from Ebay last night after I posted here, but the seller didnt specify the version, so I'll have to wait and see what I get and whether I like it or not

Actually, both versions have embossing on the tuck box, but I believe that the V1 is much more detailed embossing while the V2 seems simpler. There are other noticeable differences:
Tuck Color - V1 is a yellowish while V2 is grayish white
Front of Tuck - V1 Silver Outline of AoS has line through it while V2 Silver Outline has dotted line...V1 Silver Foil more intricate than V2
Left Side of Tuck - V1 has 909 Premium Finish & US Playing Cards while V2 has Erlanger, KY 41018 & US Playing Cards
Right Side of Tuck - V1 has The US Playing Card Company Erlanger, KY 41018 and V2 has The US Playing Card Company Manufactured By
Top of Tuck - both versions same
Bottom of Tuck -both versions same

V1 is supposed to handle much better than V2

Anyone, please correct anything that is wrong about this post as this is what I have found through my research...hope it helps!

Well, the Ebay seller only supplied a photo of the front, but it seems to have a line going through the middle of the outline of the ace of spades, so it looks like I got lucky and its the V1 version of the deck! Cant wait to get my hands on it!

Out of curiosity, which one do you have?

Congrats, I hope it is the V1 deck! I have both decks... the decks in the pictures are mine
