So if the Test and Craft decks are being shipped "immediately", does that mean the Signature Ambassador decks will ship with them?

You should have received the Signature Ambassador decks. If you didn't get them, you should email Lotrek.

I did about a week ago. He has not responded yet. I figure he is busy with Fable and was hoping for someone here might have some insight.

In his message announcing them, Lotrek said they would be on sale for 24 hours.
The sale will be open for 24hours.
I have re-read the email several times. I am not sure if that means that only decks sold during the 24 hours will be sent out of the 450 available, or if the 24 hour sale was just so he could make sure he gets those during the sale out by yesterday. They are not back up for sale again now that the decks sold in the 24 hour period have likely been shipped.

If you wanna have my educated guess, It looks like the shelf from https://stockholm17.myshopify.com/produ ... al-drawing; therefore self-made.

Very good guess! I bought the drawing from Stockholm17 and my brother in law made it for me. Only instead of one long shelf, he made two shorter (he hadn't that long planks on him). I'm in the process of filling them. Once I'm done I will definitely post some photos. :)

I just added it when I ordered my Doriche cards yesterday. When I saw your picture I was like, "Wait a sec; that looks quite familiar!" :lol: :lol:
I'm still on the fence which wood to buy. Darker? Brighter? What wood did you use? I think I'll go for a brighter toned wood aswell.

Apparently. But what bugs me out is that I expected the Craft edition as well and that didn't come, only the "Test print edition", Will they come later?

Hmm....Lotrek said the Craft edition would come with the Test Edition...No...He said the Test Edition would be shipped with the Craft Edition. Kinda the same thing....But then this is Lotrek. I am sure they will come. I just need to wait a little. [MURRAY]

The two editions were indeed sent together. If you haven't gotten both, I apparently made a mistake. Combining the two orders wea really complicated. Right now I'm away for afew days with bad connection but if there is anything wrong with the orders, just send me an email and I ll fix it when I get back.

It's a spruce wood and I was assured that it will become darker with time and will match the rest of our bedroom furniture. :)

I tiny package arrived a short while ago covered in Greek stamps (books in the shape of a train with a boy and girl "wizard". Cute). My prototype deck and craft decks arrived.

Lotrek, I have no idea what could possibly be "wrong" with these cards. I pulled a deck out. They handle great. I can't see anything wrong with them. Dude, I think you need to see a doctor or something about your compulsive condition. I would refer you to my doctor, but she has already said I am hopeless.

Perfect, I found a use for my empty HotrS Brick Box.

I managed to snag some craft decks, but I missed out on the test decks just barely. :( If anyone has one they are willing to part with, please let me know!

So I ordered the test bundle way but only got 1 deck today????

Edit: I guess go away 2 weeks in Hawaii and don't read UC or emails and you lose track completly... So A "Craft" edition was released while I was away and the second deck of that bundle will be out in September.. I guess that would explain the unique deck that came in

Most of the time don't get shipment notifications for Lotrek decks, I just checked and I only got it for the LESS deck and the original Arabesque when it was still called the Mystery deck. It'll show up later in Australia, usually a week, sometimes two after others start getting theirs.

Totally agree!

Lotrek, I understand you envisioned a more mat finish for the red on the backs (if I remember well), but I really love those cards just as they are, with their rather dark colour scheme. I started "breaking" a deck and I love how they feel too (I might love the feel of the LESS deck a bit more). I'm quite curious to discover how the feel of the deck will evolve.

Have a nice vacation!

Lotrek does not send out notifications but if you want to get your tracking details, drop him a line and he will send you the number.
