Sadly after contacting Chet there is no International shipping available for this limited edition outside of the US as he is unwilling to have hand-made small run limited edition versions lost in transit?
but there is still a standard deck available.
Store Here
(PS If there is anyone from the US that does pick up a limited deck or two and would be willing to post to a wet and rainy Scotland let me know as I'd be more than happy to take one off your hands )

These are nice decks. I don't think anyone should be afraid of "oh noes lil ole me didn't get the super limited box, whatever shall I do" dramatics of missing out on said limited box. Pick up the reg very worth while and almost as limited. These tucks are not wrapped in cello. They're not sealed with stamp seals. They're not bound in string and closed in wax. They're just placed in a plastic sealed bag. The decks are printed in the United States of America by LPCC of Texas. That's right folks, the same company that my constant companion desk decks come from! None other than the Liberty Playing Card Company. Chet orders a print run of 500 decks when he has a run made. That's pretty seriously limited in my book, your book may be a different version though so please take a moment to consult your manual.

(By the way, there are One Limited Edition Boxes left as I edit this post. Go get one! If they're all gone, Go get one of these!)

Mine have arrived and this is what they look like fresh from the Box-o-shipping. They're packed pretty well, each deck is stuck in a sealing plastic bag then wrapped in bubble wrap then placed in a box, then some fill packing is put inside before said box is sealed with tape and sent along to one of us lucky devils who just got a gem of a deck. Here's some front and back snaps direct from unpacking before I pluck them free from the plastic bag. If you look closely it's still on each. (Do keep in mind, I don't order just one deck at a time and you may have a different experience than I regarding shipping should you order just one deck.)

As far as Art Cards go, this guy is imho one of the best in the game.

Thanks for providing two scans of two different decks!!!
His decks are always a SMASH, just unfortunately pricey to get if you're not in the States
