Same here, but I was a bonehead and neglected to get a couple of those lovely red LE tucks.

I am very glad to have been given a chance to correct that oversight.

#1 007. That's how I roll!

Glad to have got my hands on these. I did order a couple of the std imps from art of play. They are one of my favourite decks of cards to date. Pleased I've now got the special edition to go with them.

Same here, but I took the opportunity to add a few more reds to what I already have on hand.

I was flying from the left coast to the right coast today (that's in the US, not in England, where such a trip would take, oh, a little less time), and didn't get a chance to log on until just now. Order #1035. I went to order the "bundle", but after I clicked "add to cart," I was told it was no longer available. So, I ordered two each of them unbundled (and it let me). I'm paying an extra ten bucks for being late to that party... but at least I get to get me some of these fine looking decks. :)

Cheers!

Edit PS: and I, too, am grateful that the pricing stayed reasonable. Woo-hoo!

Aw, darn. The bundle is already out of stock? I don't mind paying the extra $5 really, but I'm just hoping the single decks will last until this coming Friday. My budget doesn't allow me to purchase these until my next paycheck. I've got just enough for my pledge on Dale's mechanical decks.

My friend, have you not heard of this thing we call a Credit Card?
Buy now, pay later. It's the American Dream...and it's ultimate downfall. ;)

I don't have a credit card, unfortunately. I use a debit card or PayPal for all my online transactions. I've been thinking about getting one for a while now, but I think I'll hold off for a bit until I know for sure I can handle it. I feel like I could fall into that trap of charging everything through a credit card. Lol.

Good way to get frequent flyer miles. ;)

Yeah, I was thinking that, too. That's part of the reason I want one. I thought maybe I could pay my large monthly bills with the credit card and then just pay it off right away at the end of the month so I can earn miles points. I just have to be cautious about my spending urges. I have too many "omg-i-have-to-buy-this-deck-now-or-it'll-be-gone-forever" moments. Sometimes that feeling is justified, and sometimes I'm glad I waited. With a credit card, I just don't want to end up with too many "why-did-i-spend-this-much-i'm-so-stupid" moments and a pile of debt. It's easy to avoid buying something when you really have no way to pay for it. Haha.

If the Imps are still on stock by Friday, it will be the first thing I'll be purchasing. :)

I just picked up 4 more of the limited edition tucks on Thursday, already have two pairs of them. "Got 'em while they're hot", they won't last forever, that's for sure. Absolutely beautiful red tuck box! (posted previously in the thread, so I won't show another)

Hey folks, thanks for all your kind comments and support! Friday was pretty epic. Except for the forums, I didn't advertise the site going live to anyone on Friday. I didn't even give a time really, but wow did it take off. I'm glad everyone who missed out previously has since gone to the site to pick up a few.

There is a little confusion (based on messages I've received). Both decks are limited editions, meaning this is the only print of these decks in these boxes. I couldn't call the red "Special Edition" an LE simply because they both were LE's. So once these are gone...they are really gone!

Have no fear, two more decks planned in the Whispering Imps series...more to come.

Yep, I ordered mine late last week and received them already. Nice touch the "WI" logo even on the shipping label, really good job and as several people have pointed out, the red tuck is just simply amazing!

Yep, he sure did. I got a copy of the 'promo' with "Voted 2nd overall deck by UnitedCardists.com" or very similar...
