Correct me if I am wrong,
Ultimate Set includes

Red backed Modern Feel Jerry's, 10$
Blue backed Modern Feel Jerry's, 10$
Red backed Vintage Feel Jerry's, 10$
Blue backed Luxury Foil Jerry’s. 35$
in a Case from Sherman with a JR Seal. approx 20-35$
about 85-100$ in value
then they throw in the BONUS of real (1) Deck on Jerry's
for 495$

So basically they are selling original Jerry for 400$ ?

Probably the way we view the inexperienced KS first-timers who are purely hype riders:



Then again, maybe that's how they feel about those who didn't pledge

Oh s**t, I should stop coming back to this thread. It is going down quickly. But what did I expect from this thread anyway.
Nice troll comments from Eric though

That is some disgusting meme...

That would be extremly dellusional.

Nah, you can't take their nominal retail value, since EPCC doesn't have these costs. With the approximatly high print run I would say:
USPC Jerrys $1 (so $2 for both)
China Jerrys $1
Foil China (or Taiwan) Jerrys $1.50
Engraved X5 (I don't know, tell us !) I would estimate $15

So we have $19,50 costs. That would mean you get the 1970s Jerrys for $475.50 which is a pretty bad deal or a normal scalper listing on eBay.

Zero chance of me backing this. If I ever end up with some form of insanity fever that causes me to want some, I'm absolutely positive that with 100K+ of these printed, the aftermarket is going to end up with prices well below the KS pledge.

I never knew my name would be so common! And to have such Noob questions, I am shamed to be sharing a name with them! I'm glad I added the HotRS JoC as my avatar to my KS profile to show who's the real Eric Lee!

Sadly, it is also not me trolling the noobs. Been far too busy last 2 weeks and can barely keep up with UC.

BTW, those would be the T-100 and 200 models from Terminator Salvation. Not the sleek perfect one coming out soon.

Conjuring Arts had a deal a couple of years back that “let” you purchase an original Jerry’s deck for $500USD if you spent a certain minimum on other decks.

AoP offered them for same price so that seems to be the benchmark

It took about ten seconds for those 100 cases to disappear plus 1 hehe.. Now I bet the comments will rain on the campaign on how it is unfair etc etc etc

Yup, there is already a bunch of complaining.

Yep, I learned that early on when I started backing playing card campaigns on KS. I eventually find a deck I backed on KS later on a retailer’s site like Hocus Pocus going for cheaper than what I paid. Now I don’t back big campaigns or those without any worthwhile KS exclusives.

I was able to snag one of those $495 sets for anyone here that wants it. Personally, I don’t find it to be worth $500. I don’t buy simplistic decks just for the hype, especially at a ridiculous price like this. Even though Jerry’s are legendary (and a nice vintage deck for collectors), they’re mostly sought after in the cardistry community, which I’m not a part of. I’m also not into vintage decks at all, unless the art is great

I'm back at it with the ridiculous complaints :
So much clueless people not knowing how PLEDGING and TIERS work on Kickstarter.
This has got to be the most chaotic live campaign I've ever seen on KS.

I responded to Ralph

I'm having so much fun reading these comments, and I know you did Pierre
And damn, you really prove to be the fastest man alive being the 1st of the Ultimate set

Well I can't say for sure of course if I was first but after my pledge there were still a bunch available... most likely in first 10

I am convinced Pierre has robotic fingers.

Pierre is actually an artificial intelligence and is plugged into the internet...he doesn't really have to type, but more or less think and his pledge is made.

Now what would make you guys say that..... does not compute

Those people are f&*king delusional crybabies.

Someone call a whaaaaambulance.

A lot are new to Kickstarter. Sad this has to be their first experience. Anyway, did I miss something limited? Oh yeah, the five set of Jerry’s. Aside from the carat case and Jackson’s seal, I’ve lost any interest. Congrats (I guess) to those that snagged one. Time to go back to bed.

New stretch goals including brand new Nuggets Decks including one by Jackson

New colors




Kings Wild Edition Jerry's Nugget







SILVER Luxury Foil Jerry's Nugget Deck





GOLD Luxury Foil Jerry's Nugget Deck

That KW JN actually looks decent, considering the source material. Those foil renders tho...

You said it, “stretch goals” that are completely unachievable with less then 12 days left.

New colours - $500k
Jackson Deck - $550k
Silver Foil - $650k
Gold Foil - $750k

With all these new versions, I am likely to drop my pledge. I figured this would happen eventually, but not this fast.

Jackson did a good job with an uninspiring design. It isn't giving me any desire to stay in this campaign.

Wow, that's a total of 10 decks if all stretch goals were met! Is that the record for most number of decks offered on KS?
As for the foils, they look like the NOCs of Steel and Fort Nocs with the Jerry's Nuggets logo plastered on them.

As intriguing as Jackson's edition is, this stretch goal is just fantasy at its best. Basically everyone who is interested is already onboard, the campaign has already reached its full saturation of backers, and what they're asking for is more than a single Arcadia Conjurer's campaign funding goal. Is this KS managing for real?

Naive

I think not making the JR version the very next goal was a mistake on their part

I don't have anything nice to say so....

Even if these decks are not realized during Kickstarter, you can bank on them being produced at some point in the not too distant future.

... me neither .

The Kwp Nuggets are crap, too. Simple as that. Jackson is a great illustrator and hands down one of the best card designers out there. I love most of his decks but this is plain and simple uninspired waste of paper. Even he can't turn s**t into gold. As mentioned before, he's an illustrator not an alchemist.
