Interesting... Not getting any of them, international shipping...
Most probably getting rid of their unsold decks

interesting, i was thinking about getting some decks from them anyway, might as well give it a try! and maybe ill use up the 3 WHOLE BUCKS i got from the v7s haha

I'll probably give a few decks a shot as well. Seems like a decent deal.

edit - I guess they got rid of the option for free holiday shipping...

wait...what? wheres the free shipping?

What the?!? At first it said something like "Holiday Shipping Promotion" but now it's gone....

Sorry... I guess they got rid of it. I'll edit my post

I was going to get a few decks, but maybe now I'll think about it overnight. Still seems like a better deal than the HOPC brick.

Sry. One more edit - I think I got it. The free shipping option shows up when I have more than $50 in my cart. I had a bunch of other things in my cart when I first looked at the shipping, and when I removed them it disappeared. Let me know if that works for you.

oh ok i got it, i just ended up getting 4 decks, im praying for some fultons casino decks because thats what i wanted to get in the first place but we will see

Nothing gets people to buy stuff like the chance of getting a deck of Nuggets does. I mean, wasn't HOPC supposed to be having random drawings and giving away JNs every month? I don't think I've heard of anyone actually winning a JN yet.

I have a feeing almost everyone who buys a mystery deck will be unwrapping a Clip Joint deck, or a plaid deck, or Ace Fulton's Casino decks.....

that or the probably hundreds of unsold v7 sets

They didnt say anywhere that the Jerry will be included, so I think there won't be Jerry at all.

Still you have to admit, it's a pretty good deal at $5.95/deck... I ordered a couple of them, we'll see what I get...
Even aside from that, it's a better promo than the Ellusionist "holiday cards" thing. I've got tons of those and NOTHING... NADDA... ZILCH... ZIP... ZERO.
Though, I will give them props, they did upgrade my shipping to make sure my order got here on time before I left for Christmas (but at the same time, their warehouse didn't make the shipping deadline).


Edited***

OH SNAP, FREE SHIPPING?!?!?!?!?!? Hells yes!!!!!

yeah but the picture shows the jnug, that would be some sneaky advertising so i would hope they would follow up on that, but either way its a good deal. has anyone came forward that they ACTUALLY won a jnug through these sorts of promotions?

ill post up mine too when i get them, ordered 3 or 4 of them and im hoping to get at the very least a fultons casino red/blue, hopefully theyre all d&d decks and not a bunch of aviators :/

Well international shipping is 31usd for a brick, which is about 50% of the original deck price, coupled with the fact that you guys over in the us gets free shipping, just leaves me feeling uber jaded

and I can't complete my order because that free brick box is out of stock, and there's no way to remove it from my order.... *facepalm*

Yup, emailed them about this. Massive fail.

ordered 6

I will post what I get.

---edit---
Ignore this post.

btw, i think we all missed something...

"Expected ship date, January 2nd."

...i hate waiting for stuff lol

looks like these are now available to everyone...Check their site

I think this is a neat idea. I doubt I'll get anything interesting but it was fun to order one like a cheap lottery ticket and see what we get.

Is free shipping only for members? I can only get two options, one for $11 and the other for $22 or something like that.

I think the free shipping was a Christmas Day only special offer. It probably went back to the normal setup today.

Free shipping is on US order above 50$.

When are these supposed to ship? I have yet to receive a shipping confirmation.

on the description of the mystery deck it says jan 2nd, im not sure if that means theyll send it out at that time or if thats when we will expect to receive it

Oh ok.

I guess I missed that part. Thanks for clearing it up for me.

My cards came in today. Here is what I got:

All 6 decks

I have wanted some cards with plaid backs for a while now, I just never got around to purchasing them. I already opened one that I will be using for card games.

Wow, that's a bust, all common decks, and it looks like the top of your plaid decks are dented......

It is the lighting. I just double checked the decks and they are fine. And yes they are common decks but I didn't have any of them prior to this purchase so it was an ok deal.

if you compare what you´ve got and the pictures on the product page....not one rare deck....well done D&D!

This is basically gambling. Anyone who plays the lottery expecting to win is going to be disappointed.
