Either that or it had a really large print run of 5k at least. But then, it's not easy to find this page as you either have to click through their IG post for that deck (which I can't find anymore) or search for Rainbow wheels directly. That could also be the problem.

Not a fan of misprints. And as vasta mentioned the price with shipping is just not good enough to pull the trigger for me personally.
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 must have dropped off their mailing list at some point, because I hadn't been notified about these. When I saw the post here, I figured it would be worth it for me to see what was up, and yes, the shipping was stupid expensive, but I decided to pull the trigger anyway. My order arrived today.

The deck is quite to my liking. I've been a fan of the series since the first deck, but I couldn't spot the misprint on the first pass through the deck. I was going to post here something witty like "Huh, it turns out they printed the Ace of Diamonds upside-down! I can live with that." But, upon a second pass through, I spotted the issue.

Did they say in their e-mail what the misprint was?

If you're curious, it's this (highlight to read):

The court cards for the hearts have the suit pip in one corner index, but not both.

I like the deck, I like the design, and I like the bling. For a gilded deck from AoP, the price is reasonable. The misprint makes the deck entirely unusable for poker night, but to be fair, the bling already ruled this deck out for poker night. It IS entirely useful for card games with the kids or solitaire or other informal-type situations.

YMMV, but if you likes yourself some rainbow holofoil backs and some silver gilding bling and some DKNG Wheels printed by USPCC, this is a decent enough deal.
