Dunno about you guys but I'm not feeling the reds as much as the greens and blacks.

It appears the joker font difference has been corrected but we may have lost the double-backer. Not sure how I feel about the red on the ace of spades though and me making a purchase depends on how the colors will work themselves out.

Hmm... Your right the font is the same in the reds Leads me to believe the greens may have had a mistake in the font. Ppl make mistakes? Any reveal? I spy with my little eye...

When the issue? probable date?

I wasn't feeling the black backs, I'm looking forward to this one and what the tuck will look like.

Looking forward to the tuck too, think the red will pop nicely.

For those who like their Gator cooked!

This would be more for those that like theirs raw.

Hard to say what public reaction will be to these. The greens flew off the shelves, the blacks are kinda just sitting there still.

Do we know what time on Friday?

A time would be awesome!

(For us) the black deck sells just as well as the green did, I imagine there is still plenty of stock of black as he printed much more, but I could be wrong.

Just noticed that the whole shop page seems to be having issues. Maybe it is down in preps for a sale on most items???

Yeah i'm guessing they are just preparing for the sale since there doesn't seem to be anything on the shop at all.

I'm beginning to wonder if these will show up today ...

Don't worry, just go to bed my European friend, and the rest of us will handle things.

Too late!

WTF is going on here? How embarassing... what kind of Ellusionist $#!t is this?

I think it is more depressing that even if you send a note to the contact us you will never hear anything back!

I think he's using the geological "soon".


Before his shop went all zero dark fifty-two, there was a banner for 40% all non-gatorback stuff. The White Lions were still there in bricks ($100 down to $60 on sale).

I think he meant to say "Soon™", a well-known concept in the gaming world.

Could be worse, could be "Duke Nuke 'em 2" soon.

Did Blaine die? His website sure did! Completely dropped the ball with the release today that never happened. Has since removed pics alluding to the sale and no new updates on his Twitter. I wonder what happened. Some are wondering if this is one big joke! Anyone in touch with him?

Calm your balls victor, whats the big deal, did he take any of your money ?

Maybe something unexpected happened and they decided to push back the release date.

Who really cares. Deals are deals, but at the end of the day, as long as we are reading these posts, we will be ok. Blaine owes nothing to anyone.

I will say this though- he sure loses some credibility. I'm not mad at him or anything, I'm just shaking my head. As a computer tech I guess I'm more critical when people don't have a working website- ESPECIALLY if you're as famous as DB. That's 101 stuff.

I'm not mad either, but it would have been nice if the website at least indicated when the store would be available again. Someone on Facebook posted that he stayed up for the anticipated release (since there was no specific time indicated, people assumed midnight), slept at 4AM, but then set his alarm clock to wake him up every 30 minutes to ensure he didn't miss it! Some people really really want these decks and don't want to miss out, so indicating a time would be nice... or even just clarify that it won't be released any time soon.
