Three years ago this would have been a hot deck.

Couldn't agree more! Worst playing card related purchase I have ever made.

I joined the black club several months after it started, after several others had started receiving "free" spiffs like the gold arcane uncut sheet and all that, and I decided, okay, looks like the real deal. At some point, I got a "free" red Arcane, as long as I purchased something else to get their shipping machine rolling. Okay. No worries. Every "free" thing after that, that I recall, was digital downloads. Those are fine, I suppose, but not the reason I was interested. Am I misremembering? Were there any other "free" cards since the red Arcane decks?

My membership lapsed, and I don't seem to have received any indication saying as much. I just found out the other day when I logged in and found out, oh, I'm no longer allowed to buy stuff from the black club section of the store.

I would certainly love to pick up a couple of the gold Artifice decks. But, not at $147.

Has the black club given out anything "free" that I've missed in the past few months? Anyone? Anyone?

Inverted Kings being sold at Ellusionist website for 10 dollars a deck. If anyone actually cares.

Here's the link: http://www.ellusionist.com/kings-invert ... dison.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

It might be a good idea to grab a brick and sell them to rabid fanboys for profit. If their price don't drop because of that 10 dollar price, that is. But hey, it's a Madison deck that is limited to 5000, fanboys will be all over it, no matter what.

or the "1300 reminding" sold out and they didn't notice this (Saw on the descirption seems like they change it again), but still a nice looking deck to own (Tuck case) + gaff cards which is bonus to me

Bought a half a brick + other decks also
