Just an FYI, the custom Summer 6-Pack Box is by the same, quality printer/manufacturer as the Ornate A&E 6-Pack Boxes.
Thanks, Randy

Re: Blue Crown Summer club for 144 members
If they would have made those 2 NOC decks exclusive to that membership I might have gotten it but $90 for a tshirt, sunglasses, empty box and advance purchase of the NOCs I think I will pass. I know that you do get that rare deck but I already have all of them and not really interested in the downloads ...Who else has splurge to get one so far?

Re: Blue Crown Summer club for 144 members
I'm with you Pete. If I had serious need of the 15% discount I might have been swayed, but I don't really see any large purchases from the Blue Crown this summer. If it was half of a brick of the new NOCs, that would have been nice.

I don't go for these super dooper limited club thingys. I have to say the ten downloads is not a bad deal. If you are into magic it works out well.

Re: Blue Crown Summer club for 144 members
Have to agree, Pete. For 90 bucks there's a lot more better out there. Does look like a moneysworth deal for those who want the downloads though.badpete69 wrote:If they would have made those 2 NOC decks exclusive to that membership I might have gotten it but $90 for a tshirt, sunglasses, empty box and advance purchase of the NOCs I think I will pass.

Re: Blue Crown Summer club for 144 members
Hey guys! Thanks for your interest in summer club - whether you've already purchased, are on the fence, or have no plans to purchase, we appreciate you taking a look!
As you know, we always like to try new things! Summer Club seemed like something fun, and of course no item will appeal to EVERYBODY. This is definitely a more magic-geared release (hence being on TBC, not HOPC), so I can understand where pure deck collectors wouldn't get as much out of it.
For magicians, we think this offers a great value with all of the tangible items, plus the 15% off discount and the 10 downloads.
We've also tried to make it quite clear from the start that the Orange and Light Blue NOCs will be released later on in the summer. As usual, we'll be making announcements ahead of launch so that you know it's coming. These 2 colors were a limited print run, and it's pretty unlikely that we'll ever print them again. So for you collectors, you will have a shot at the decks before too long.
As always, if you have any questions, comments, feedback, etc - please reach out to us via email at info@thebluecrown.com

Why can't you guys just say that they will or will not be printed again... and how many of these decks are printed now.
TBC lost all credibility to me over the Gold Crown fiasco, and the Altruism misprint (that wasn't disclosed till after they had sold a bunch)
....a signed cardboard box? Cheap sunglasses? Elastics? a sticker?? a t-shirt that I couldn't picture anyone I know wearing... and 3 decks for $90???
The other nocs are less than $5.
PASS! You guys just keep recycling the same crap with different colors. How many different color Crown/Noc decks do you think people want?

It means it is unlikely they will be ever worth anything hehehewalrus wrote:Unlikely they will ever print them again? What the hell does that mean for a collector?

What that means is, the collector will not have to worry about a second print run. Of course what they aren't telling you is the printed a million of them in the first run!!!! Typical Blue Crown BS.
Thanks!

Re: Blue Crown Summer club for 144 members
Wow guys, some extreme negativity here...
All of the summer NOC details will be available at release - since they haven't had their official public release yet, the details aren't out there. There are 2500 each of the Orange and Light Blue decks. 99% chance that they'll never be printed again. Again, that info will all be made available when the time comes. I guess next time I'll just avoid saying anything early...
As I said, we understand that not every product is for every person, especially summer club. We've spent quite a bit of time selecting the items, creating the downloads, etc to offer a cool package. Some will love it, some won't, and that's OK.
CBJ - Nobody was more upset about the Altruism misprint than us. USPC delivered them 3 weeks late, and we didn't find out about the misprint until after lots of decks had been sold. We shared the info with our customers as soon as we found out the news, and tried to deal with a bad situation as best as possible.
Have a happy 4th everyone.

Your not doing us any favors, so don't try to make it appear you are. You only show up and post on the forum when you have something to sell.

Re: Blue Crown Summer club for 144 members
Kevin,
Obviously this forum appeals mostly to playing card fans - and the summer club package will probably appeal to only magicians. I am also a magician, so I had some interest, but many in this forum aren't tempted by the magic aspect of the offer. Thus, anything related to cards in the club is really going to get major scrutiny here and we offer plenty of opinions - generally offered in earnest. (Except for things relating to tusked aquatic mammals - those are generally silly.)
I like the NOC line so I will probably get some later.
John

I like a lot of TBC and HOPC products but ad copy borders on false advertising. Honey, there is a ninety nine percent chance I won't get you pregnant.

Re: Blue Crown Summer club for 144 members
Hey Walrus - The stuff in my message definitely shouldn't be considered as ad copy, just a heads-up. Once we do the actual release on the NOCs, the page will be clear regarding whether these will be a one-time run.walrus wrote:I like a lot of TBC and HOPC products but ad copy borders on false advertising.
