Re: Aurum Playing Cards - NOW AVAILABLE!
This is just a preorder, right? When are they expected to ship, does anyone know? I caved after reading the copy for the white gold edition one too many times so I got one of each...
Re: Aurum Playing Cards - NOW AVAILABLE!
Yes, it's a pre-order. I remember Paul saying that he will most likely receive them late November.neongrey wrote:This is just a preorder, right? When are they expected to ship, does anyone know? I caved after reading the copy for the white gold edition one too many times so I got one of each...

Re: Aurum Playing Cards - NOW AVAILABLE!
I expect to have the decks within 2 weeks and will begin shipping shortly after that.
Unless, of course, USPCC has some delays like we often see. The cards are printed though (I already have some uncut sheets) so they are waiting for all the tucks and for final finishing.

Re: Aurum Playing Cards - NOW AVAILABLE!
Wow! The boxes look stunning and those metallic inks really add a nice touch to the back design.
Re: Aurum Playing Cards - NOW AVAILABLE!
Replace your shopping cart images!
Gald to see the details you could see on the laser and white gold decks of the design in the upper left hand side of the decks and some of the corner flourishes are included on the purple Sovereign boxes.

Re: Aurum Playing Cards - NOW AVAILABLE!
I got one Aurum deck today and it's looking very nice. The borders came out very thin, just as I'd wanted. USPCC also sent me a gift of 1 gilded Aurum deck, which I was not expecting! It's quite the little jewel.
Won't be long now.

Re: Aurum Playing Cards - NOW AVAILABLE!
That gilded deck looks really cool! The gilded edges go along with the gold in the deck.
The fanning pattern is nice as well!

Re: Aurum Playing Cards - NOW AVAILABLE!
haha, that is funny because just about 3 minutes ago I also checked my inventory levels. For a pre-order, the deck has sold quite well and I think that once people get their hands on it and we start seeing some videos and such (I have a few very talented people lined up to do something interesting for me) I think they will do nicely. It really is a pretty deck in person, I hope everyone else enjoys it.cosmicsecret wrote:Aurum - White Gold Edition - Only 425 Made = 151 aviable in the store

Thanks for your support, and I hope to have the decks heading out to everyone before the end of the month.

Re: Aurum Playing Cards - NOW AVAILABLE!
I've never had a gilded deck before. HOLY COW do those handle badly. LOL. If I do a fan with them I get about 4 packets instead of actually, ya know, fanning out the cards.Evan wrote:That gilded deck looks really cool! The gilded edges go along with the gold in the deck.

Kind of glad I didn't do any more of those. They look fantastically sweet but are almost unusable.

Re: Aurum Playing Cards - NOW AVAILABLE!
Cuts and card games are about all gilded cards are good for. I've never handled one that....well, handled....at all.
Re: Aurum Playing Cards - NOW AVAILABLE!
Very nice "green" packaging materials - someone has been saving up for this. (USPS box with the brick and stuffed full of old newspaper).
Couple of cards - the gaffs are a gold front (which is why the deck back has the gold in the cut-out, and a white front where you can see the line design detailing).

Glad they arrived so quickly for you! And yes, I had been setting aside old newspapers for months for exactly that purpose.
