Maybe because the Wylenti deck was under $10 (if I recall correctly), too? πŸ€·πŸΏβ€β™€οΈ
You want to reclaim your mind and get it out of the hands of the cultural engineers who want to turn you into a half-baked moron consuming all this trash that’s being manufactured out of the bones of a dying world.

I think these were cheap simply because it was a clever way to clear out the 20/20 decks. I’m happy to see they didn’t go the cash-grab route and instead offered people a cheap quality deck :D

Maybe somebody got the Signature deck that I could trade for two KWP decks or buy for right price.

Right, the Wylenti edition came out at $9, then like a week later this deck drops at $7. Which is more than enough time for Jackson to have secured a supply of the stickers used on the tuck (or at least prototypes for the photos).

Has Jackson ever come out with a deck this cheap, on Black Friday or otherwise? I’m just a little cynical because I missed out on this cheap deck lol.

He has, if I remember correctly. Back in 2018 he did Old Ironsides with Shuffled Ink but they messed up. He sold the Error decks for $5 in 2019.
Then there was something with one of the gilded Equinox editions but as my interest for KWP is more and more declining, I can't remember exactly what happend with them.

The first batch of Equinox gilded were supposedly clumpy and so Jackson sold them for $3ea without tucks. I think there were about 1000 available, something that Cartamundi did as a test run for him. I bought two bricks and after breaking them in they are at least playable for games, although the pips and colours do make them hard to read at times. I have given several as gifts using a DS1 sleeve as a tuck. I usually break them in first.

I don't buy direct from KWP any more because the International shipping direct (even with delayed shipping) plus VAT is so high I can buy them from resellers here for far less. As long as I don't care about the limited editions or gilded versions any more (and it was honestly too much to keep up with and some of the sub decks I didn't like) this works for me now. Plus I get decks faster.

This 2020 tuck swap seems more like a display deck to me in any case.
