This might be the most excited I've felt about a KS deck (other than decks made by Uusi) and I can't wait to get my decks and uncut sheet!
I perform magic in night clubs and most of them do have black lights so its a good feature for me
We just wanted to drop in and give our thanks to everyone on the board who has supported this campaign thus far. We've been trying to add on stuff from the request of our backers and keep things interesting.
We have seen all these new KS projects and have been reading all the issues with pricing. We are very proud of the price managing we have on this campaign. Our biggest goal was to make pricing and shipping as fair as possible to both US and international backers. It's a shame a lot of these newer designers coming out are taking advantage of the $15 Pedale pricing. Although there have been a few recent, and I mean FEW that are worthy of the price, Sometimes customer loyalty is more important than profit margins.

Too bad I'm not young enough to be in the club scene anymore. Can't imagine where I'd be able to see these cards in action. They are awesome though. Makes you wonder what new boundries have yet to be crossed
I'm surprised the funding for these haven't surpassed the original Grid deck yet. The 2.0 is so much better with the white UV stock. I guess it is tough having a campaign run at the same time as a juggernaut like the Federal 52. I think a lot of discretionary income for card collectors went that direction. I hope the 2.0 gets a big boost at the end because it's such an innovative deck. This deck falls in the top 3 KS decks of all time for me, behind only the Fed 52 and Uusi Bohemia decks in my rankings.

I think it's because of how much more gun shy the Kickstarter community is now. I have no doubt that there are many people that pledged for the first deck that simply do not use Kickstarter anymore due to the possibility of getting scammed.

Yeah, I think I agree that if the Federal 52 deck wasn't running at the same time, the Grid 2.0 would be doing a lot better, not to say that it's doing bad right now. I really like the UV element, this takes it further than what Ellusionist did with their UV500 stock.
