That link is no longer valid anyway. Ellusionist changed it.

Haha ! I got a couple of those yesterday ... So excited ...! The map looks really cool , I can't stop emphasizing on it ... It really is.

So even if a person obtains the original Sultans and attempts to find that "secret" page is pretty much s.o.l. now? There was some good advice not to buy the decks of Ebay, but it seems even fans have been locked out now, so that's the only place to get them. Kind of a stupid setup if you ask me... they should've just inserted a code to get into that site and each code could only be used once... poor planning on Ellusionist's part if they thought no one would let the cat out of the bag...

Now that the cat is out of the bag and shut down, can someone who knows tell me where to start looking for the answers? I've been all over the deck and facebook and haven't found the deck, only a different item.

hope E can release Sultan Treasury Deck in bottle in the furture ! haha That would be really cool .

I have the new link because I forgot to remove the decks from my cart.

Awesome idea! I'd love that!

I'm sure you would love that so you could sell it for like $300 to some poor soul.

Actually, Ellusionist would sell it for around $300. I'd sell it for $600 (just kidding)

You can talk shit all you want man.

Ok, there must be some fakes going around or something, cause the two Ebay auctions I had bid on have been shut down for violating the Ebay terms of service...

After getting burned on the website shutting down the page to order them (friggin great...) and now the Ebay sales shutdown, I'm kinda sick of trying to land one of these, especially since Lazarus is the only remaining one (aside from another auction who wants $15 just for shipping within the US???)

Anyone here willing to part with one of their decks for a reasonable price?

One of my listings was removed because apparently it infringed on Ebay's pre-sale rules, even though it was completely following their rules.

Anyway, it's back up. I posted it in the sales section of the forums.

Haha good luck selling it !

haha so e found out that the link went public and changed the link; which would seem screwing over everyone else that finds out what the link is legitimately.

That should be the case ... I'm lucky I have got a couple already . Just waiting for them to arrive ...

It doesn't affect anyone who KNOWS how to find the link by following the clues. It only affects people who copy/paste the link.

Or people who figured that E has a very organized and short page naming scheme and replacing republic with treasury did the trick.

Not exactly a vault, was bound to happen once google found it or anyone got a deck and/or posted pics

Here's the map from the inside of the box:



If you want the larger picture, it's here

And here's the front:

Looks like northern Iran on the Caspian Sea?

Glad someone took it apart so I don't have to.

I wonder what the coordinates mean...

The second set of coordinates gets you to around Petra.
Not sure about the second set (what's up with the "IMJC" "114JC"....something like that....

Does anyone know what was up with the glyphs on the facebook page?

The coordinates in the regular Sultan deck lead you to Petra as well.

Hey! I just got mine and noticed something strange...

Each of my decks have two seals. One right on top of the other. Before cutting through them, I pulled the cello off one and peeled the top seal back. Turns out the seal underneath had already been sliced through. The only thing I can think of is that they forgot a card and had to reopen all of them to fix it. Is this happening to everyone?

Here's a pic. Any thoughts?

My regular Sultan decks had two seals. The Treasury decks only had one though.

I'm gonna receive mine in a few days time .. Excited!

Sharpie wrote:Is this happening to everyone?

Not here - one seal.

I do wish they had something different with the ad card, though.

I've received multiple Ellusionist decks that had 2 seals.

Ok, first the Altruism decks and now there's issues with the Sultan decks? Good grief.

Eh I don't think it's an issue really.

|| DECIPHERED || Many of you have already figured out the Sultan's secrets -- enough that the Sultan has decided to open the doors to his vault. If you have a Sultan Republic deck, then you have a few hours left before the opening. Inside each Republic box is a code. Put that code after "ellusionist.com/" and you'll find his vault. It opens at 8 p.m. Eastern TONIGHT.
