Title: LTD. (Limited) Deck Auction ALREADY!!!
Post by: KPopFever605 on November 30, 2011, 08:33:51 PM

Hey everyone, I found this peculiar auction on Ebay. I thought a few of you might be interested in getting this deck without the $150 price tag. It's the first one I've seen, so I'm surprised someone has it up already. I for one will want to see how high this will go. Might get it might not. Are you guys going to bid? Leave replies down below.

It has a reserve, so I doubt the reserve will be less than $100.

I will be getting three and I will have 1 to sell. I hope to wait till demand is high and sell it.

But anyway, I'm not going to get it... I'm happy with the one that I will be receiving soon  :)

What makes you say that? You never know!

Well the bid is already at $80 and it hasn't met the reserve price...
Also it seems like the "right" price for the reserve for that deck to me

The bid is now up to $100, I doubt it will go any higher.

Holy mama, did not expect it to get that high so quickly. I think it will end at around $120.

It seems a little silly for the auction to be going that high... If indeed the deck does sell for ~ $120 then why not just make a $150 order to Ellusionist? Get the LTD deck plus a whole whack of other items/decks you can use or sell or trade.

International shipping costs would make it more like $180 though, at the very least, right?

^^ Ya, thats a valid point, but still... for the shear amount of stuff you get for the $180 on top of getting the LTD deck it still does not really make total sense to me. I would much rather spend the extra bit of cash and have something more to show than just one deck of cards. And I mean, it would not be too difficult to offset some of those costs by just having something like a "holiday sale" ;D

True, but not everyone has access to an entire board of 400+ awesome people either.  ;D

They would if they joined the Discourse!

Anyways back on topic, I am very curious to see how this sells... might possibly sway my decision into putting up the money to have a $150 order to E.

Yeah, but it's much better to buy other decks of Pure smoke and sell it for 100$ So, it's possible to get some money back. I think the cost of that deck shouldn't be over $75.

i completely agree i reckon the cost of this deck should be under 50

Well, I don't see a reserve on it and it's still at $100.  Ironically, only two people have been bidding on it against each other...  Possible price fixing?  You decide!

The reserve was there yesterday. It has been met, so the "reserve has not been met" text is taken off.

I just don't see the big deal.  If they were $6.99 I'd still give them a miss.  Actually, that could be interesting; if this was a regular retail deck for $6.99 that anybody could buy whenever they liked, how many of you would get it?
Title: Re: LTD. (Limited) Deck Auction ALREADY!!!
Post by: phantom1412 on December 04, 2011, 10:51:27 AM
That's very true.
All things in this shop is expensive. I believe this shop is not located in USA.

I'd get a brick at the least. In my opinion, its a beautiful design! Its amazingly simple, yet, very well designed. Its definitely one of my favorites

I love the deck, so count me in on "how many would buy it?"
Title: Re: LTD. (Limited) Deck Auction ALREADY!!!
Post by: Jin Jian on December 04, 2011, 01:06:12 PM
if there will 6.99 i will at least get a bricki think that the design are simple and elegant

Post by: KPopFever605 on December 04, 2011, 06:47:18 PM
For that auction, I'd put the deck around $175 - the $25 comes from the shipping to the US from HK. but still, it's not good, I'd rather go with the first auction if I had to.
Title: Re: LTD. (Limited) Deck Auction ALREADY!!!
Post by: JMMJ on December 04, 2011, 09:36:32 PM
From seeing this I would almost Vortex will go for $200 at some point. (I do love LTD though, I hope they reprint it at some point)
Title: Re: LTD. (Limited) Deck Auction ALREADY!!!
Post by: austin on December 04, 2011, 09:38:06 PM
Well if they were to sell it even though they won't, I would buy 2 bricks.
