I think the prices are a little on the steep side. I absolutely adore this deck and i wish there were early birds to get in on. I think ill still pledge for some =)

Just curious, has the prices of the uspcc decks gone up so far that $15k is needed for production of a single run ?

I don't think the price is terribly bad, but perhaps that's because I'm looking at US shipping. I also assume you meant EPCC since that who is being used and based on your comment.

I'm all over this one. A bit disappointed there is no uncut sheet since this is my kind of subtle creepy and overall theme. Although, I'm also a bit relieved that I don't have the option to buy an uncut because I'm already overloaded in that department! My only question now is how many decks to click...

whoops my bad, i looked at the goal and assumed uspcc, now thats a pretty large goal for EPCC.

Its approx $12.5 for a single deck and goes down to about $10.5 for a brick, not terribly expensive just a little on the higher side.

It's a lot better than their original deck, much better effort.

Thanks for all your support guys!

These are lovely. Between this and Arcana today, I feel quite spoiled!

Like these, not particularly a great use of 2 colors on the faces but art is well done. Will pick up a pair.

I don't know if I missed that the first time around or just ignored it because it was standard courts, but yeah, HUGE improvement. These new courts and the whole design is just awesome. I had no idea that it's a 2nd try and a redesign. Interesting that this time around it surpassed the original project's total funding in the first day. So yeah, we're not the only ones who think it's an improvement.

@52Ravens - 25% and a Kickstarter staff pick. Good job. I think you will make it. Soon or later ppl will get used to the different dollar currencies.

Unfortunately being a Kickstarter Staff Pick doesn't mean much, remember the Bicycle Deep? It was a staff pick and it didn't fund and there's been others i'm sure.

Say what you will be I just don't get into any occult themed deck. I'm all for freedom of everything g I just don't want bad juju in my collection.

You mean except the VORTEX deck?

Yea you are right. It seems like they have been giving them out like candy recently. Hey! It's been more than 6 months since you have pissed anyone off. Victor YOu are really due. Have you changed your ways? Are you taking your meds? I see Walrus and MagikFingerz doing their comedy duo up there. Seems like home Here

I'm frankly astonished this isn't doing better!

(No need to stir the pot there Sproutilicious.)

Me too! Could be the non USD values again, which is silly. This deck is great and that should not really scare people off, but it does.

All the court cards are women!?


"I like women! Women women women women...baabaabaabuuurrr"!



Foreign currency always scare people off. I haven't pledge for this deck yet, I like it because; of the art, it has the Heretic vibe to it with the star symbol plus how the kings and jacks are women too.

Backed!

I hope it can make it.... damn kickstarter management, they are so stupid.
They presented the opening to sweden and I´ve been to the event a few months ago.

EVERYBODY asked the following:
"Is it possible to open the project and set the american currency?"
reply: "no, we worked to make it safer for the project creator"

yeah, right.

Looking good, but the diamond indices on all cards appear to be one way, as do the pips on the number card shown. Will this be reversed?

@wah0108 - Wow! good eye. You're now on my radar. That is a mistake.

One thing for sure, people ARE going to have to get used to pledging in other than US$ or miss the KS prices on several decks - soon. With Denmark & Sweden (amongst others) added to the mix, Crowns ("kroner") are going to be familiar very soon! Oh, right - they already are...

Wow that is a pretty cool set of eagle eyes you have there @wahl0108. This will be corrected, thanks for spotting that, only seems to be the diamonds, strange haha

I've got a bad feeling that the currency is putting people off backing this. I'm just about to amend the backing info so that it is clearer that shipping to the US is included, but apart from that I'm not too sure what else I can do.

Why Kickstater doesn't convert the currency to match the viewers location is beyond me! Its a pretty easy fix

Thanks once again guys for your continued support

52Ravens - The easy fix might be a chart with the price per deck in USA dollars and any common currency. More work for you, but would let ppl know right away what they are paying for....

Hmm what does 8 pounds equal in American dollars? I didn't look it up like I usually do but it doesn't matter because whatever it is, I can afford it.

about $12 and some change.

Woohoo! Made it to the half way point!

I'm still hopeful for this one, but it's by far the one I'm most concerned about because it really deserves to be funded long ago. I LOVE this deck, maybe not as much as the new Arcana, but it's up there. Maybe that's part of the problem, too similar of a theme? Clearly the currency is an issue, but Explore and others managed to get past it.

Guys, take notice of this and back it!

Yep have to agree. I thought this would be funded by now. It's 100% custom. It's that damn currency crap...

I think its the lack of promotion as well, i havent seen/heard anythng about the project 3 days after its launch.

Wow, this had a HUGE relative increase the last 2 days! I think it stands an excellent shot at funding if this keeps up.
