I don't own any uncuts, but if I did, I would want this one.......(drooling)

It's gorgeous, but I don't think I will be picking it up. I bought my first two uncuts (Mechanic and IAOCP) within the past week, and I don't really want to make a habit of it.

Ahhh, who am I kidding, I like this too much to pass up.

not a fan of monarchs. Got to play with a deck from a friend of mine but just was not my thing.

Post by: NathanCanadas on June 18, 2012, 08:57:06 PM
I agree the backs look very nice, but I'm not into the whole Uncut Sheet collecting thing. Plus I don't want to support T11 too much either. If I were to buy an Uncut one day, it would be of a fully custom deck, similar to seasons or Tendril.

I spy a crash occurring this Friday (if these are released by then). It'll be true magic if they could pull that day off without any slowing. I'll wait and see. These are way too prestigious to pass up. In my opinion, they'll probably release less than 100 if they release any at all.

This is one of those things that is desirable merely because we are told to think it is, and because we are forced to believe in its rarity. Design wise, it is really rather dull because the faces are all standard and the back is just monochromatic gold. I'm sure people will go insane over them but as a designed object it doesn't have much inspiring to it. To each their own!

I agree with that. I will try to buy a couple, just to resell for a profit. Same with buying the decks, just for some profit, I am not a huge fan of the deck.

 SIX New Releases + Free White Monarchs - Friday!
SIX releases. ONE day. THIS Friday. On Friday at 11:00am EDT, we're excited to announce six new releases.

The first of which is RAPTURE, an effect by Edward Boswell that looks and FEELS like trick photography. The second is INSANE - a simple, powerful mentalism effect from Andy Nyman: a creator, director, performer, and writer for Derren Brown. What are the other FOUR items? Join us on Friday to find out.

On two occasions, we have attempted to sell White Monarchs. On two occasions, we have failed. The demand was astronomical, and even after ramping up our servers 500%, the surge in traffic tore our servers apart. So this Friday, we're NOT going to sell White Monarchs. We're going to give them away.

For 12 hours only - from 11am to 11pm EDT - we will be including one deck of White Monarchs with every shipped order over $50. For each shipped order over $100, we'll be including a White Monarch UNCUT SHEET and a deck of White Monarch Playing Cards - on the house. A gift, a present, from us to you.

Join us on Friday and be a part of the action. 12 hours only. From 11:00am EDT to 11:00pm EDT.

I'd be stunned if that wasn't one of the planned releases.  On top of that, there's the Verve deck, the two David Blaine decks...  My aching wallet...

I'll definitely be ordering $100 worth of decks from them. I really hope they release the rebel deck and maybe even another deck.

I'm actually really glad Theory11 has decided to follow Ellusionist's path and offer a reward for bigger orders. Plus, you don't need to spend as much to get the goodies. I hope they'll keep on doing this in the future.

Guys?  On-topic?  White Monarchs Uncut Sheets, right?  Not D&D?


Make a new topic for that.


BTW: Rebels are confirmed by J. Bayme as NOT being one of this week's releases.  And the Monarchs and uncuts are also NOT counted.

What no rebels? I'll have to pass on this one then. I was hoping to buy a brick of these rebels to have the 50 dollar free deck.

If they're releasing 6 other items, you should have more than enough to total up to 50$. They probably purposely didn't release the Rebels so people focus on buying other items in stock and the new items as well, rather than just buying the new deck. And you can always stock up on their older decks and get some free WM uncuts!

I'll see, I'll maybe trow in some bee stingers and some charity water. But I'm not really willing to buy anymore dvd's or tricks. I have a lot yet, most of them unopened. So I'll have to check these ones out before buying other ones...

1. What makes you say that? When theory11 says something, they usually stick to their word.

2. Because it's rare and looks beautiful.

Didn't they specifically say there'd be some if you order more than 100$? And we can dream if we want. Maybe you doubt there'll be some, but we can always hope if we want to.

If I get this uncut, it'll be the first I ever owned.. I would say they look nice and I wouldn't mind having it if it's given for free. truth be told, I don't see the point behind uncuts as well. I can see why some people like them as some do look nice when hung on the wall, but it's not really my thing.. i prefer things i can hold in my hand.. just a personal opinion, thanks.

Are you a retard? T11 has announced it already ??? Read before you criticize. >:(

On another note, I already have everything I am going to buy all picked out, I am really looking forward to this. I am getting a bunch of new tricks, I am going to see what comes out tommorow but I think I am pretty set on what I am getting. :)

That's cool man, it'll actually be one of the rare times I'm buying something from T11 that's not playing cards. So, any suggestion on approx $150 worth of products? I'll be hanging around the MagicalCardistryBonanza to see what I can learn as well.  :)

Meh, with the uncut sheets out of the question, I believe the sole deck isn't worth the $50. Although theory11 does have some very, very nice items, I'm going to pass on this release and see what Dan and Dave have up next.
Title: Re: White Monarch Uncut Sheets
Post by: LeonJL on June 22, 2012, 01:45:09 PM
After a long thought, and also partly due to the fact that WM uncuts are sold out by the time I logged on... I'll pass on this release as well. I got myself some Verve so I'm happy.

Anyone here got the uncuts? Congrats to those who did!

No it doesn't. If you have ordered before they sold out (after one and a half hour) then you have a uncut sheet and a deck (if you have ordered at least 100$ of course)

Does anybody have any idea what the White Monarch Uncut Sheet would be worth in value as of right now?  Reason I ask is because I called a place to take it and have it framed and they asked me how much the piece is worth so I can insure it in case anything were to happen to it.  I guess I could say $100 because that's what I spent to get it for free.  But it has to be worth more than than that.  Any thoughts guys?

Compare it to the aftermarket cost of other uncut sheets for similarly rare decks.  A white Gold-Seal New Fan Back from Zenneth Kok would be similar, or maybe an IAOCP deck.  You could argue that a red Artifice or a Gold Arcane would also be similar.  Look at decks that had print runs of fewer than 5,000.  You'd also have to do just a bit of guesswork - we don't know exactly how many of these sheets and decks were made; T11 kept it a secret.  They claimed only 500 decks were to be released, but the actual number is unknown.

Having said all that, I wouldn't say $100 is out of the ballpark.
