Hi, does anybody know how much black tigers first editions go for. These are the ones that sold out in 96hrs, and had the worst handling of all the black tiger decks. This was before the UV500 coating.

I still have 7 decks left and was just wondering what they were worth to collectors?

I didn't even know there was such a thing. I guess since E didn't hype them into oblivion they're not really that sought after. Still kind of a cool deck to have though, the Black Tigers are for many the first custom deck that made them start collecting, myself included.

Yeah, the only real difference between these and the later white piped editions as far as I'm aware, other than the box marking and gaff cards, is that the first editions had standard bicycle finish rather than higher quality or UV. I guess they are the first print run rather than edition as not much changed. But Ellusionist had always called them first edition so thats what I've used.
