Since alot of people went with multiple decks I would guess above 500.
Lets say my guess would be around your guess. So I say about 900.
Probably about 50 will be available at 10th of april and 50 for the lost/damaged ones.
So with all in count I say it will be a print run of about 1000 I think.

I haven't seen any of them yet go over 400. I am going to say 440, but I am right with OVSUB and badpete69. If he prints over 700 I will really be surprised.

Historical numbers:

Arabesque Gold - 350
Damask Red - 400

Anyway, the thought of adding another Lotrek mystery deck is getting me excited. Wish I could go to Greece and see these being printed and produced. :D

I missed out on Arabesque and Damask. Did those have a buy limit or just a limited window like Crypt?

Arabesque and Damask had a limited time. Lotrek made enough to sell to those that bought them in the window, and a few extra to handle lost/damaged decks and a few to sell after they were made.

I will print 500 decks in total. The decks sold were 450, 90% of them were sold within the first hours of the sale.
Given the high price, given that despite the high price nobody has the slightest idea what's the deck about and given the coronavirus thing, this sale was my most successful.

Considering the Coronavirus situation, I have a prediction: Crypt will be printed on....toilet paper. TP value is through the roof and this would be an industry first. You heard it here, folks! :ugdance:

Congrats on an incredible success, Lotrek!

Thank for the info Lotrek, and congratulations on the success of the Crypt deck, albeit unseen.

I was one of your new customers, and I am looking forward to receiving the Crypt.

Great concept that will be faithfully kept.

My extra decks are for trading with other collectors in the future.

I win if we're talking about the original question, unless you are talking about total printed :lol:
Hey Lotrek, now that the sale is over are you able to give us some final numbers?
Total printed and Badpete wins by massive margins lol.

If we are talking orders, I win. I guessed 440. However, to be honest, I was thinking total print. So, whatever... :)

No man, it'll come sealed in a face mask. Those are more valuable than TP right in Asia. Sold out everywhere in my country and my govt has to prioritize the healthcare to receive the production of new masks. It's gone up 4x in $ now. :cry:

Harvonsgard wrote:Yup, I thought we're talking orders.
lol, it was asked earlier before the release if Lotrek could let the community know how many "decks" are going to be created based off the total sale orders...

It's to bad because after seeing all the replies of how many decks were printed it made me think of when I was in grade-school and the teacher would have a jar of jelly-beans and would ask each kid to guess a number and at the end of the week the class would sit there and count it out and the winner would get 1 jelly-bean lol..

Damn, to think about it today I was always way off. Those mason jars can be very deceiving...

Maybe next time we should do that within the forum. Start a "total-production" guessing game on Lotrek's next mystery and the closest person to the end number without going over can get a feee mystery deck or something... And obviously you only get one guess.

Just a thought, and maybe a fruition at a later date.

Damn you Covid, your making me think of stupid **it...

The funny thing about the Wuhan Virus is that it's disrupted supply chains, for the most part the warehouses should have all the TP that we really need, the biggest issue is that too many of our countries have exported production to China. Main reason we're down on medicines. We should call it the CCP virus. Hopefully this situation will blow over faster than the potential 3 years of problems.

Meh gonna call it what I want since it's funny. Boomer Remover, Wuhan Virus, Kung Flu, Covid-19, etc. Still scary but better to find some humour than being constantly in fear.

I don't know, but since I saw that "Y" in the crypt render from Lotrék I can't help it but to think this deck will have an Egyptian style to it?

Meh at home when talking about it it's usually 武漢病毒, unless I'm talking to other people about the illness seriously, it's Kung Flu. If we're speaking seriously about it then it's Covid-19. Also why are people obsessed with our president? Don't you have to pay attention to things other than our orange presidente?

Also the only people I see really calling it something other than Kung Flu is older people, well don't let the Boomer Remover get to you. :lol:

The media started calling it the Wuhan China Virus, but now that Trump said it, "it's racist". No, it isn't. It came from China. Chinese isn't a race - it's a culture. There are plenty of viruses named (in-laymen) from where it originated.

Naming the virus from whence it came is not prejudicial. We need to stop trying to persecute people over stupid things like this. Stop trying to revoke everyone's freedom and enjoyment of life with trivial bullshit. [/end]

Anyways, back to the deck...
