That’s a good idea. I’ll have to look at adjusting my angles to make them more visible. Thanks.

Added these into the collection today :drool:

Now looking for a NetEnt, Crown17 and the Mini and Micro S17. Any help would be appreciated. Although I need to let the wallet breath a little. Especially with Keymaster launching Saturday :D

Nice scores Kem-Collector and justplayingcards.

The Heretic Brick is rarely seen anymore, so awesome pick up. I don't want to know what you paid for it. Just those decks alone now sell for a ton. Heretic is my favorite modern playing card deck/design.

Nice grab justplayingcards on the Gatekeeper Bundle. I liked all that nice stuff lurking in the foggy background too. :D

I don't care for seal numbers either but still 69/247/42(0) always make me chuckle. :D Great catch indeed.

Oh, don't worry I got your back. Just send some of the decks over to me and I'll stock them for you safe and sound :D .

Two deliveries this week.
1) from PlayingCardDecks:
PlayingCardDecks order
PlayingCardDecks order
IMG_20200214_153314570 - Copy 2.jpg (45.57 KiB) Viewed 4311 times
Top row and first deck on bottom are all from the "mystery deck" offer. Not super thrilling, but I kinda wanted the Power Rangers deck before I got it, so that was nice. The Derren Brown I ordered explicitly. If you can't tell what the free deck is, it's a Vanity 41! 8-) My first full transformation deck.
This is my second order from this store. They send stickers, and sample cards from other decks. They pack well.

2) from BoomBoomButtCheeks:
BoomBoomButtCheeks order
BoomBoomButtCheeks order
IMG_20200214_153549773 - Copy 2.jpg (47.9 KiB) Viewed 4311 times
Ordered each of these explicitly; the Soundboards were my chosen free item and I think they're my first side-opening tuck. The Cloud 9s I think are my first numbered deck; #109/1000. (I haven't been checking because I didn't think I had anything rare before.)
My first order from this store. No stickers, but I can't imagine what one with this store's name would look like. Or, rather, I can :) I'll definitely consider buying from him again.

I honestly never thought I would own one of these. Interestingly, (I never noticed this before) the back of the tuck seems to be the front?

Congrats Cpt.Ahab. That White Whale is hunted down. :D Supersweet to see it arrived at the right spot. Fingers crossed for the No.17 Crown ed. now.

This website is the reason I will keep mine sealed for now :D. I made my own layout from these images. I will ask his permission to post it here. Only seems fair.

If anyone was wondering which cards Lorenzo made.

Lorenzo has always been known for planting easter eggs. But Ravens before he even knew he was going to be a card designer or had met Caroline? That's just freaky :shock:
