The "Hey, look what I added to my collection!" thread

The red deck was a stretch goal during the KS but was not met.

Good to know - thanks!

One of the additional cards with the Blue-backed deck is a double-backed card on which one side is a sort of orangish-colored version of the Apocalyptica back (it's the second from the right on the above grid, between the blue back and the tuck).

The mailman delivered a huge package today from Pierre (badpete)!
Thanks for letting me consolidate these packages with you, it really helps

WTF, a Core deck??? I guess he did actually ship a couple out. Wish I got y half brick that the asshole never shipped.

[nECr0MaNCeD]

Ok, Some of this is nothing special but it's some of my recent additions.

PS... I still can't seem to get the links right. Could a mod fix this and let me know what the devil I am doing wrong.

A surprise I found at Walgreens recently....


A CVS find and only because they were .75 cents per set. One was cello wrapped, the other not.


Much better. I love this set. Now I need a set to open....


A few of the sealed decks I got in the mixed bricks I purchased from Wildereachday


And finally, the creme dela creme...


Happy to help: just click the "ucimg" button on the top right, the "img" tag was disabled because Joe's code works much better! --M

My Redux Box arrived today

[volantangel]

oh damn you and your boxes, they look amazing !

[montecarlojoe]

Lol - I don't know if I'll be splurging on another any time soon the 20%+Release fee at customs is a killer!

[Paul Middleton]

That box looks beautiful Joe.

[montecarlojoe]

Thanks, Peter's done some beautiful work.

[RSLancastr]

That box looks beautiful Joe.

Indeed. Was that one of Peter's creations? Nice, regardless.

[volantangel]

That reminds me, no box on the hot cakes project though !

That's probably because if you put hotcakes in a box, they get all steamy/soggy.

Heheh, actually it's because Pete's still working on some of the boxes they sold for Pagan and wanted a breather. He promised there will be some for the 6th deck in the series.

They just broke $20,000 in under 200 minutes, not bad! That's 2/3rd funded - they set $30,000 as the goal.

Makes sense. I can't even imagine the time involved in making them.

I just received a couple of packages of decks in the mail on Saturday, so I thought that it would be a good time take some more pictures and to update my "Show Us Your Cards!" thread so that it's at least current...

NOTE: Is there a better way to link to a particular post within a topic?

here's the trick to making 'short internal links' - DON'T use the URL bbcode around it, and leave off 'www.' in front

I'd say I got a visit from the post today, but instead a letter. After some google translate, and my neighbor, turns out my purchase via eBay (from Taiwan) didn't have a customs form, nor an invoice. So, I had to go to the local customs office. On a positive note, it's just down the street from the Porsche Museum (WIN). So, long story short, finally got a few decks I have been waiting for, and I didn't even have to pay customs

And finally, the creme dela creme...

Glad those showed up in good shape! I always enjoy seeing those in their new homes.

[RSLancastr]

I'd be more than happy to post pics - Do you need my mailing address?

Oh, and... could you send a camera along with them?

Hey ! Send some here as well minus the camera !

I almost said "...and could you send Volantangel along with them?"

Now all I need as a First Printing set, Personal Edition and a Tendril to complete my set. Oh, and the 3 Zenith decks I ordered.

Oh id love a trip to the US, you have no idea. Pack me up in a box and off ill go !

[SBurk49]

Here's my latest additions:



I dont know how frowned upon it is to plug another member/store, but those White Monarchs (Yes, White, not Silver) were courtesy of a contest I won from Richie's Card store. So then I ordered the rest to make the shipping worth his time.

Y'all should check him out. I'm a little partial to his store now.

[caramelo]

want that White Monarchs...

Got my Oracles in today. Another homerun by Chris Ovdiyenko. Seriously, I think they're better than the Calaveras deck and that was one of my favorite decks of last year. No lightning bolts or smell of sulphur after opening mine though, and i was surprised at how low a number I received.

[samurai007]

My Oracle deck and Old Masters deck arrived on the weekend, and today a couple more packages showed up! Nat Iwata's Steampunk Pirates and Jackson's Sherlock Holmes decks!

[nECr0MaNCeD]

Drooling over those Oracle decks as well as the Grimoire. At this rate I will have sold a kidney before the year is out....

[Mike Ratledge]

Ok, I'm going to split today's haul IP. I got 3 packages from Greece today.

The first one is G2 Classified, second is Pit Hartley, obliviously, third one IHNI. Maybe Lotrek can decide the Greek from the box, almost certain that the word in the middle is Greek for "Monopoly", but I'm not betting a penny on it.

There's also a pair of the first of four distinct versions of Jacob's Bible decks, I put these mid 60's.

(and again, my not-so-smartphone has turned pictures upside-down. Don't crane your neck too much, buddy!)

[Eoghann]

Every post you make here is a dagger through my heart Mike, all those beautiful finds. Leave some decks for us for cryin' out loud! Haha

[Mike Ratledge]

Part of five dual deck mint sets I bought off eBay for $13.95. I keep hinting for everyone to look for bad listings, but I will keep snagging them myself. No clue what the flirt two pix are, it's Hallmark zbut appears to be Hoyle. Second is Piatnik "Mayfsir", and the others I will post tomorrow because it's 1am and I need some sleep. (4 deck set of Piatnik Tudor Rose and a vintage pair of Congress decks in a leather case, one silver gilt, one gold.

My point is that I paid an average of $1.40 per deck for mint mostly vintage decks.

Don't look down, then. I just posted 4 more and 6 wait until tomorrow.
