These are fantastic! The original matchbox deck is my favorite and this is a great companion to it.

Re: Biblioluminous Playing Card Deck By Chet Phillips
I usually get the boxed editions but this one is a wee bit out of my range. I am happy to get one of the standard decks - I love Chet's work!

Re: Biblioluminous Playing Card Deck By Chet Phillips
I'm still trying get hold of the first matchbox deck but will happily grab this one while I can, even with the exorbitant shipping price that's more than the price of the deck.

Re: Biblioluminous Playing Card Deck By Chet Phillips
Art is undebatable on these (as on the other decks from Chet). I really dislike the cheap looking "chetart.com" on the bottom of the tuck box though. Like, really, really dislike.

Re: Biblioluminous Playing Card Deck By Chet Phillips
I have both editions of all his decks but regrettably won't be getting a limited edition deck this time. The cost is ridiculous. I emailed him expressing my disappointment on pricing so many people out of this edition. His reply was that he really wanted to pull out all the stops with a special edition this time. Unfortunately all the custom work by Julie and quality materials meant a higher cost. Sigh. Another hole in my collection. I hate being a competionist.

There, there. It gets easier with time.
Not much easier. And, it takes a lot of time.
But, it does get easier.
...
Also, I'm putting an "L" into the quote above to make you a completionist rather than a competionist. Although, that also sounds tough.

Re: Biblioluminous Playing Card Deck By Chet Phillips
It doesn't get easier. You just learn that you can only be a completionist for some things.

Re: Biblioluminous Playing Card Deck By Chet Phillips
Being a finite being in an infinite universe makes being a completionist an endeavour bound to fail. Like trying to do all push-ups.

Re: Biblioluminous Playing Card Deck By Chet Phillips
I'd normally comment on how I hate when "non-playing card designs" are depicted on playing cards but the art is just SO good I'm not only going to look past that, I'm probably going to buy one.
EDIT: Does anyone know the printer?

Chetart is having a BFCM sale. 20% off everything in the store and on Etsy. Great time to pick up his decks if you haven't got them.

Re: Biblioluminous Playing Card Deck By Chet Phillips
Thank you! That discount was enough to convince me to get the Limited edition.
