Well, Arthurian was before the Subscription program. But, yeah it is toward the last of his designs, not the first half.

It is interesting now to look at Jackson’s Kickstarter projects as finished as he is not planning to use them in the future. This would make Invocation his last Kickstarter project. It certainly had its share of delays as I only recently received my legacy set. I am sure that having backers wait so long is one reason to do this differently in the future. That plus the Kickstarter and backerkit fees.

So I kind of look at Arthurian as one of his later Kickstarter projects.

He mentioned that he will do the Lord of the Rings definitely with kickstarter due to the synergy effect.

I see the seller has a deck of misprint Theory 11 JAKQ’s he’s pretty proud of also [...]

Damn, I really want that! And to be honest, I'd probably buy it if I could afford it. *sob*

[portcullis]

It just comes off as very disrespectful especially with the hindsight of knowing these decks are from someone in this community. Thats just my opinion

Our Aussie somewhat regular is well know for his condescendence.

You rang?

Not at your door though.

Some nights, I lay awake and wonder, "What will be the first modern deck that will legitimately break the $1,000 barrier?" A few decks and artists come to mind.

I guess that question is settled now after Brad Fulton launched his revamped website. It's the Ace Fulton's Casino Cowboy Denim.

[House of Cardistry]

That’s insane. I guess if somebody is willing to pay $1200 for a deck, that’s what they’re worth but good grief...

[Bradius]

That just lets you know how much of a bargain they will be when they go on "sale" for $75 each.

[Fes]

Get it while the gettin's good I guess.

On the flip side, website looks good.

I doubt that they'll ever go on sale. They don't exist anymore. USPCC destroyed them and only 6 or 7 survived that massacre.

Valley Forge Gilded Collector's Set for $700
https://www.ebay.com/itm/RARE-VALLEY-FO ... 3333204304

I remember buying them for $150 just last year.

[Bradius]

Hah, that was one I wasn't fast enough to get. I hate having that hole, but not $700 worth of hate. In fact, the longer time goes by, the less I care. I kinda like that $150 in my pocket...Wait. Did I give it to Lotrek...or was it Lorenzo...Gio...Montenzi? I forget...its definitely not in my pocket anymore.

[brownsl]

I was fortunate enough to grab one of those, crazy someone wants $700 for it.

[Fes]

I don't think they actually want to sell. I think that's out there just in case someone wants to give them 700.00 USD for it. Sometimes it's fun to dangle the hook and see if something bites the thing right? That's all that makes sense to me anyway.

Winner winner, chicken dinner. I put a pair of hard to find sunglasses up on eBay a few years ago for a solid chunk O’ change and got way more than even I bargained for when it got into a bidding war between a guy in Hong Kong and John Mayer (the guitar guy) of all people. I thought Inwas robbing somebody at $500 but ended up getting almost $2000 for a pair of shades... you just never know what’s gonna happen...

This is a perfect example of why I self banned myself from ebay for a decade and why I still self ban myself from participating in auctions. (although, there is this deck that . . . .

[Bradius]

That is exactly the reason I snipe on eBay most of the time and just forget about it. Honestly, I don't go on eBay much lately. I did recently, and my snipe was beat. Oh well, maybe another time. You gotta be good about walking away. If not, to war you go! and bring lots of cash.

This is my tack also... wait until the last two minutes, make a max bid and check your email 5 minutes later. If I win, great, pay up and wait for the item to ship. If I get outbid, too bad. The auctions already over and I still have my $$$ in pocket.

I don't think you understand. This is a collectors item. It is out of print!

[House of Cardistry]

Maybe somebody from the Department of the Navy will buy it... I mean, they’ll spend $20,000 on a hammer or a toilet seat, amirite?!!?

My bad. I forgot about that...

[House of Cardistry]

Man... maybe I should go ahead and pick up a deck..

Oh wait... there are about 25 other listings for this one-of-a-kind out of print rarity of rarities....

[Adonael]

Welp, jacksandjokers is up to his low and dirty shit again. Cutting that crack with bleach I bet! Grotesk Silver Bronze listed for a whopping 725USD

Digest this how you will, but in my humble opinion as someone who has seen every Lotrek deck in person, this deck is worthy of being among his most expensive. Again, my opinion, but as tucks go, it's better than ICONS Reverse and just as rare as the numbers go. A deck is of course worth what someone is willing to pay for it, and all things being equal, if everyone had the opportunity to see all of Lotrek's decks in person, even if the Grotesk design isn't one's favorite, the tuck is insanely gorgeous. No pictures I've seen or taken do it any sort of justice.

In fact, after having to sell off most of my collection due to recent circumstances, this deck is one of the select few I'll be clinging to for dear life. It's remarkable in person.

So, for the person willing to pay for an ICONS Reverse, I feel this deck is worth at least the same consideration!

[Fes]

It's not a buyers market on items are truly rare and sought after. It's a sellers market. Point blank, no cocaine nor bleach involved the seller has it and can ask whatever price they damn well please.

The cocaine cut with bleach snorting crack user is the buyer who pays the price.
(Whoever that is has a serious addiction problem or more money than sense)

Now if it's a common item like say for example plastic coated competitors to bikes. Pick one, there's hundreds of them. If that's posted for $725 USD, seller is absolutely on crack. I won't argue that at all.

[Bradius]

I am glad I am not the only one agreeing that Simon is not totally crazy. The Grotesk Silver Bronze is, by the numbers, essentially as rare as the Reverse Icons. I would rather get it than a Reverse Icons. Even if someone offered me $725 for mine, they wouldn't change hands. But, that is me.

[TheCollector]

I'm usually the very last to criticize, but Blue Golden Oath for $990 shipped: https://www.ebay.it/itm/402410376365

Yowza. He's got a few more auctions up with some rare stuff, but as high prices go, I think there's a new king to be crowned here, lol.
