Has anyone else been afraid to post their white whale with the chance that on seeing it here someone else will now want it and be competing with you for it? There are many lurkers.

Nope. In fact when I posted my white whale on the other forum turns out Jackson had one but we weren't able to come to an agreement on a trade unfortunately so still looking for OG Vietnam Secret Weapon deck. That's the closest I've come in a few years of searching.

So I heard that a friend of mine is going to Iceland for a vacation. He just got back to me, and he won't be flying with IcelandAir

Argh!! I've called out on Facebook. I have no Iceland friends.

Still continue to check ebay and etsy. Probably my best hope.

Well, if anyone does get a line on some of these, I've been hoping to find them for a while too...
And i'll be sure to let you know if i make a trip on Iceland Air...

If only you guys reached out to me under a year ago. I went to Iceland and picked up a deck myself, should have gotten more if I had known

You selfish bastard!

Haha it's not too far from Norway svinger ! You should absolutely go, it's a stunning place, and of course pick some up for the good people of the board.

What he said.

I'll chip in $20 towards your plane ticket on top of what the deck would cost.

Well, tickets are about $220 for this summer, so if 10 more chip in I'm going

I'll chip in a neck pillow for your trip.

Me too, me too...I'll toss in $20. I wonder if you can squeeze more than 1 or 2 decks out in one trip?

Don't think there's going to be a problem, but svinger just might clear their reserves at the rate this is going lol

Hey, if needed I'll go $50 from my UC Reserve so I can put one away for next year and the 2014 Deck of the Year contest prizes. I already have several prizes.. . This time (next year) I think we'll make the top prizes "round-robin", so 1st place picks from the prizes, then 2nd place, etc. Sounds right to me...

Thats a good idea, im just afraid people will take too long to get back to you. But we can figure things out again next year =)

If anyone of you manage the Icelandicair Deck, remember, I have tons to trade.

sounds good to me, I had to I worked a trade with Flyer3003 and our prizes this year, I'm glad Strag was the shipper on both.

I know a guy who knows some guys who fly to and from iceland occasionally. He is waiting to hear back when their next trip is.

If you do find someone you can pre-order them here http://www.sagashop.net/icelandair/deta ... 7430-0007" and they'll be delivered on the plane to the person as duty free goods...

Folk uorganiserede nordiske? Nu, er en selvmodsigelse i terminologi. heheh, sorry - I'm thinking about Danish engineering, frankly - it's one of those things that even we 'Mericuns appreciate.

I got the Bicycle Boss deck out of the way, it's just only the V1 of Johnny Cupcakes that's impossible. Even on ebay it's nowhere.

I might have one, but I'm out of town. Check with me in a few days.

I have just received an email (I hope I do not jinx this..) that my (12) Icelandair decks are headed my way today/tomorrow. Not sure how long standard post will take, but I am patiently waiting...

As for how I got them... I guess it is my amazing personality and charm..

I will be keeping two decks for myself. I will work out some method to offer these to anyone here. I need to verify my grand total, but I wont be stabbing anyone on price... :

Will keep you posted...
