Yeah - so they f'ed up bigly. How long would this "marketing team" survive in the real corporate world?
Promotion is ended - if you got in you're all set. 28th, twenty-smeighth.
Rest assured - they'll control the facebook comments so everything's great.
So glad to be done with them when the BC is done.

The Madison Select Ballot is open.
When printing cards at USPCC, their minimum run was 2,500 decks.
We only produced 2,000 Madison Select Boxes.
Do the math!
That's 500 Green Rounders up for grabs, and a load of people who want them.
Simply add which decks you want to your cart and checkout. This does not guarantee you have them.
This is your only chance.
Your order will be held until the 28th of December, my birthday, and only those selected will get shipping confirmations.
That brave few will own the last of the supply.
Anyone who wasn't lucky enough to be chosen in the ballot will get a full refund for the decks they purchased.
This isn't first come first serve. This isn't a bid war.
I am Daniel Madison. I control luck.

"I control luck."

Brilliant marketing tag for this, honestly really impressed with the marketing on this project. Regardless of the fact that it is literlly just a marketing ploy to push decks, it's a smart one, and effective. Hats off to them on this.

Who is Daniel Madison ?
And, why do I need to know ?
Like D. Trump, there are many, many things I am proud to be ignorant of.***


*** fake satire alert.

It's Ellusionist , Not surpised,

and to E & DM, in response to the Select releasess, "I Don't Care"

Hikeeba Now that you hurt Dan's feeling you probably won't make the ballot hehehe

Everyone go hand out your money - to see if you are one of the chosen.

Jeez! Seriously?

Wait, you have to pay regardless if you get the decks or not? W*F lol...

Oh, they'll refund your money if you aren't one of the chosen (according to their ad copy, but then again, their ad copy says this promotion is up through the 27th, and yet, it's been closed for at least a couple days now.)

I think it's awesome to tie up your credit cards during the holiday shopping season, doesn't everybody?

I took advantage of the unpublicized release of gold Artifices to the non-Black-Club public. I did not take advantage of the publicized (before it was rescinded) Daniel Madison promotion. For what it's worth. Your mileage may vary. See store for details. Use only as directed.

Side-effects of being a customer at ellusionist may include, but are not limited to, severe headaches, stomach pains, nausea and vomiting, decreased magic desire or ability, tiredness and dry mouth.
If you experience bizarre behavior; confusion; hallucinations; loss of coordination; new or worsening agitation, anxiety, panic attacks, aggressiveness, impulsiveness, irritability, hostility, restlessness, or inability to sit still, then stop visiting ellusionist. In fact, even if you do not experience any of this, stop visiting ellusionist.
If promotions last more than 3 hours, consult a physician.

Side-effects DON'T include: honesty, up-front marketing, the sales of "rare" decks that the company keeps rare, a translator for Daniel Madison, fair prices, a steady outflow of unique non-recolored decks, and custom courts. So if you don't currently experience these symptoms then continue to shop elsewhere for custom playing cards.

Just a tip (not sure whether to create a new topic :/)

As there is a 10% store wide on ellusionist website (Sob just after I ordered my mine stuff )

1) Get the 10% off gift card and sent it to yourself (I don't think it stacks so get near the amount of your total purchase)
2) if u have black membership 5%

Overall
10% via gift card
10% off product
Then 5% for Black membership

Roughly 23% off product instead of 10% only
Or 19% off product (unless my maths is wrong)

Doesn't change value in the cart. There's an asterisk after "Everything" in the mailer, b/c words do not mean the same thing to e as they do to everybody else.

(Today I find that the signed items I had put in my card last Wednesday are out of stock, killing that order. And now my CSERVICE10 discount code won't even work. Again - will be glad to be done with these buffoons once my BC membership ends.)
