Gio’s already cleaned up the last my collection budget this month, so no I haven’t. Even with free shipping #nowalletswereharmedinthispost

Yeah, it's quite an awkward timing, right after the Order campaign ended. Poor poor wallets. Wish the sale happened 1 month later so there was time to recuperate :/

If I had a dollar for everytime I have thought this *Aloe Blacc - "I need a dollar" starts to play*

Sorry guys ^_^'

I was waiting the right time to drop the sales and release Monolith, I couldn't do that earlier because there was the Order campaign (and release a sale when a campaign is running is not a good idea) - at least I can keep the sale open for more days.

@shkorc - if you're curious, so far the sale is going very well, a lot of orders, especially on bundles.

Thank you for the awesome support!

I forked out for the Sunrise brick (I don’t own any Gio decks - Order was my first campaign). Definitely went over my budget for this month, but I guess I just got my tax return? Time to cull more Kickstarters x_x

I picked up the Betrayer’s square as I didn’t have any decks from that set. I think Odissea is the only set that I don’t have any decks from now.

I haven't because the last sale around Christmas was actually even more amazing in my opinion. Maybe it was the Halloween sale [emoji848]. Anyway the bundle was lunatica, sins including eva and delirium. It was 11 decks if I recall for about $170. It was really crazy. I have picked up Odissea since and have been in on all the KS campaigns.

So my Collection is pretty complete. All the sale items and bundles, I already have.

Thank you! I really love Betrayers, I hope you'll be happy with them too!
And about Odissea... there are various deals on it now ...
...sorry I can't resist tempting

@STLBluesNut - I have checked, and yes, I've made an halloween bundle that was very crazy, even for my standards. I called it "Big Scarybox".
It was a sort of error/experiment

However, in this sale I have "resurrected" some old bundles from Black Friday, Halloween and Spring sale.

Yeah, it was a super deal and I am very happy that I was able to get one of those while they lasted.

I may be a bit late, but TGW issued his latest deck review. This episode reviews Gio's Monolith Black and White versions. Check it out if you haven't seen it yet.

Two months later... these are still easily my favorite Gio decks and Gold Monolith is in my top five These are up there with HotRS Cartomancer and Hana Signature for me

Yep, the monolith cards are amazing. I only got a Black one, but I'm definitively getting the white one (and possibly the red one). My wallet is already crying, but sometimes you just have to just buy cards that look that amazing.

Ugh, why does Gio make so many beautiful decks? He's gonna ruin us!

Thank you Guys!

Monolith is actually one of my favourite series I have made (I also love Eva because pretty ladies).
I am very happy with the awesome review by TGW, of course, it give the decks justice - very different from my mute videos haha.

@NinthAquila - You have the expensive one, White Monolith should be "easy" to get in comparison, especially with the september discounts

Gold Monolith is very low stock, but it might pop up again (probably in bundles) during the Scary Holiday or the Black Consumerism Day

So.... Got my Patreon Package today from Giovanni. Already had a Black Monolith, but excited to see another one. The kicker was..... This particular one is numbered 2001... The geeky part of me LOVES this... 2001.... Monolith... It couldn't be better!!! (2001: A Space Odyssey, for those that don't get the reference).

Wow! This is extremely cool, thanks for writing about this. You nailed the lore of Monolith perfectly!
Congrats for getting that number btw

Numbers on decks don't normally bother me but that is cool and I'm jealous.

So, in last few weeks, I received this giveaway price from Intricuts (IG: @intricuts) - A craftwork of White Monolith deck in a deck sleeve and a mini craft in a Single Deck Display
Seeing the work, and the deck itself, I can’t help but to keep on admiring them (plus the single card display makes a good phone stand - kudos to Sherman Tsao). Let’s just say.... I got influenced by the ‘Monolith’ to get the actual decks of Black and White (the Black is costly X.X)

It was originally meant to be a single card display as well as a deck display. I was thinking your favorite card inside inside the stand and your favorite daily deck on the stand.

Wowwww.
