Congratulations on the great start, I think you'll hit the funding in 1-2 days.

Don't know if this was discoussed here yet, but, why the price on the kickstarter is so different from CL? (6 decks on CL = $46 / 6 decks on KS = $65)

I think part of the reason for that is because on KS the shipping cost is included in the reward.

Yep exactly that I think.

US shipping is traditionally included in KS, but seperated out on CL.
There may also be a difference in the percentage fee charged by KS / CL (though I dont have any real details on that)

I thought with Kickstater you can increase the number of pledges in a tier even if it's sold out. You don't have to make another one. I'm I wrong.

Be careful with the early birds. If you create the illusion of future early birds you might create a pool of people just waiting for the early birds that would normally already have a pledge in. You got to keep the momentum to be in the spotlight.

Thank you!

Well but it do not seems quite right! I'm quite sure that 6 decks on CL shipped internationaly would cost me arroud $60 (maybe a little more), but on KS it will go for $77.... Too much for my pocket!

CL was eating part of the cost both on shipment and on production as a promotion. Also KS fees are higher and (something I forgot to take into account in the CL project) the cost of shipment from Taiwan to USA is very high. I kept the prices from the previous project and reduced a bit the brick price.

I've opened a few more dual deck E.B.

@Sprouts: You're right. It just was 1:00am here and after working all day I was a bit dizzy... :-)

Finally I decided to have all decks in both editions sealed and numbered. Since the quantity will be limited and there will be no reprint I think this will add value to the deck from the collector's perspective.

Yeah, I never understood how a coin warrants extra shipping costs.
