It was either a joke or something with the back design either way I picked one not to linger

Yeah, not sure what sliced is, but I got one and moved on. I was worried whole was an uncut sheet. That was confusing. 19 left last I checked. Glad limit was one each. Going fast, including my money.

In for one test bundle and four official. I do not think Whole or Slice makes any difference. I think it is a remnant of the test order page.

Yeah, I chose sliced because I wasn't sure if whole meant "uncut," as well.

I figure, Lotrek will clarify, and if I misunderstood and need to switch my "preparation," I'm sure he'll be kind enough to make the notation to switch it.

But, still... sliced? Whole? Sounds scary.

Hopefully not, but I think Lotrek will clarify it and it will be able to be changed anyways.

Hum. My order was 10004, so I guess I was fairly fast, although not as fast as Pierre I am sure. Stunning for me though.

Nah I was not in a big rush... My wife was in my office and since I kind of quit collecting (wink wink) I was waiting until the coast is clear hehe I think i came in 7th

I just went with whatever the first option is (which I think was whole) and I do hope it is not an uncut sheet but hopefully Lotrek would have mercy on our collective souls and shed some light on what the difference is.

I'll email him since I picked 'sliced'. Hope that's cut cards, not a sheet. My USA total was $140.

I think the sliced just get a sliver of metallic ink and the "whole" version get a magnificent full image in six foils.

"You chose...poorly" Mwahhaaahha (Although I think that is something more like Montenzi than Lotrek)

26 Decks! Holy carp! That is beyond even me on my most greedy day :shock:

No worries at all. Lotrek is going to clarify without a doubt. Maybe he is lurking and laughing already. :D
It is a Lotrek deck, so pulling trigger first and then asking questions. :lol:

Took me some time to remove 6 sets of my cart... my tests before the launch seemed fruitful while being invisible until after it... I was in such a hurry that I almost bought for more than 900 euros of Lotrek decks :lol:

When I last looked it had 290 regular decks available. If 80 were just sold, that means only 30 regular decks sold? That seems low.

You are not counting right There are 339 regular deck available besides the 111 that are part of the test bundle. So if 290 are left then almost 50 sold

If all original decks are for sale right now. Maybe Lotrek left some for spare for the Australia friendly release.

If “sliced vs. whole” is indeed a different deck are we able to purchase another set from the Australian release time? I hope it is, as mentioned earlier, a joke or difference in back design, and nothing more.

I don't expect a super fast sell out of the regular fable decks given the speed they went initially. 450 is a large number of decks. Still, there are more serious collectors these days, so I don't like taking chances with any limited release I really want.
