We don't need to spend an absurd amount of money to get these do we?

They didn't give any details. Wouldn't be surprised if they put a bounty on on it- free with a $50.00 order or such.sqratch wrote:We don't need to spend an absurd amount of money to get these do we?

Deleted the email, but at the bottom of the email they give you a coupon code "BLACKFRIDAY" for 15% off the entire order. This code only works for 12 hours only beginning at 11AM ET.Eoghann wrote:I got an email from Theory11: "Four new releases. 15% off" as a header. But the email is blank. Anyone have a picture to share please?
A nice surprise. Thanks Brian!doobybrain wrote:A nice surprise to see that these Black JAQKs were priced normally.
Same with the Medallions too.
You can still get the blue version directly from JAQK for $9:sqratch wrote:Now I just need to get my hands on the blue and red releases.
For me, it still shows the discount on-screen, but when you put it in the cart the price goes back to $6.95 per deck. It's should be $70.89, but it always changes that to $83.40hikeeba wrote:They've fixed the little brick pricing problem - have at it!

Of course, we are getting 15% right now, but it should be 15% off $70.89 for a brick price of $60.26.
I'm a purist and minimalist when it comes to color in playing card design. That's why I like the look of the Deco cards (thanks Paul!). I also like intricate black and white designs too like T11 Rebels. I actually like the Black Jaqk decks way better than the red and blue.Encarded wrote:The original JAQK is gorgeous, such color and life to it along with lovely design and some custom features. It's been on the top shelf of my own collection since I got it. Taking that away and making it solid black sucks all the life out of it and it looks like almost every other black and white deck. It's not *bad* per se, but not inspiring like the original.
What were the quantities printed in the red and blue decks? They are among my favorites too. I warmed up to the blacks when I saw the price (figured we were gonna get raped) although I do prefer the red best if all. That said, the design is outstanding color or no!chadmcmillan wrote:I'm a purist and minimalist when it comes to color in playing card design.

I don't know. I wondered the same thing. Does anyone know the quantities for the Jaqk decks? I tried adding 10,000 decks to the shopping cart and it let me. I assume they didn't set a limit on the cart. Probably means they have 5,000+.Widdee wrote:What were the quantities printed in the red and blue decks? They are among my favorites too.

Not sold out by now gets me really wondering. This could possibly be a 10,000 deck run, but still limited, which is how they priced it at 6.99. But either way its still a good deal with all the discounts.chadmcmillan wrote:I don't know. I wondered the same thing. Does anyone know the quantities for the Jaqk decks?

T11 says both the other Jaqk decks sold out in 72 hours. Can't imagine a 10,000 print run could sell out that fast. Let's hope it's 5k or less. As a collector, anything over 1000-2500 decks is a negative.volantangel wrote:Not sold out by now gets me really wondering.

Maybe it was a typo, maybe it's 10k decks.Widdee wrote:I posted last night that I read on their FB page the edition would be 1k decks. I just went over and looked for their post and it went poof! I remember the copy block very well referencing 1,000 decks.
Same here - which is why I did not diversify my playing card portfolio.....any way to find a cached version of that?Widdee wrote:I posted last night that I read on their FB page the edition would be 1k decks.

Glad I'm not the only one who saw it, Hikeeba. I did a Bing search and couldn't find anything, the copy that accompanied a photo is nowhere to be found on their FB page. Find it strange it would all of a sudden disappear, also strange that the deck hasn't sold out given the black Legends 1k limited edition went in an hour and a half and this one just keeps churning.hikeeba wrote:Same here - which is why I did not diversify my playing card portfolio.....any way to find a cached version of that?Widdee wrote:I posted last night that I read on their FB page the edition would be 1k decks.
