Got some decks from Noobmachine.  Painless transaction.  Easy to deal with.

Bought two display cases from Dan Baer.  Accommodating seller.  Easy transaction and plenty of communication.  Thanks again Dan!

I'm pretty sure they just blew up unsold box sets.  I figured everyone would get different ones.  This confirms my thought.   

OOOH.  That's excellent.  So, Don, what you suggest to a novice like me.  I've been thinking of getting a trick or two from them and now I can for free.  Maybe your top three suggestions.  I really wanted to get Alex's Diagonal palm pass but its DVD.  Thanks.  BTW, a very nice gesture from TBC team!

EDIT:  DPP is a download also.  Leaning toward that but I'd still like your input.

The only visible difference of the two decks is cello (right) and seal (left).  All artwork and text on the tuck is Identical.  Thanks

So I was thinking...  What excites me about the BB Redux is that it's in addition to the planned 6 deck Uusi set.  So it's like a bonus for us Uusi fans.  It also serves to round out the first three, giving us six decks to date.  It gives the creators an opportunity to hone some details they may have found needed something, while making their first effort a somewhat paired set.  Their talent as designers coupled with the fact that their projects have increased in funding with every effort leads me to believe that, barring something crazy happening, we should end up with a total of 12 decks to marvel at.   That is assuming that they are not dead set against an alternate color or tuck in one of the next versions.  Good things to come, folks, good things to come.  I realize most of this is obvious I just wanted to gush a little.  I own what I think is a lot of decks and my Uusi's are the ones that catch my eye every time I pass my display case.  That is all.

Believe me, I appreciate the amount of work you put in and wouldn't want to take it all on.  I have no clue what it entails.  With that being said I also appreciate, and am amused by, the amount of effort you put into correcting people.  I Love It!  So, naturally I jumped at the opportunity to correct the Big Man!   

I'm sure I'll be repaid in spades soon enough!

Too funny!  So I'm really considering getting this.  If anybody took the leap I would love to hear a quick review.  Just want to see if it's worth the price.  Thanks. 

Heads up...  I just picked up one of each style from amazon.  They were $15.97 each.  Significantly cheaper than Ebay.  Just thought I would share this for anyone in the group who may have these on their wish list.  Cheers.

Interesting info Zenneth.  Now it seems to me with labor costs presumably being lower in China that if one of these manufacturers shifted their focus to quality in lieu of quantity they could corner the market on inexpensive high quality decks. 

*My take so far...

Week 1
Nice, albeit basic, effect.  Deftly performed and adapted to create a solid quick performance. 
3.5 out of 5

Week 2
Childs play.  Feels like something I may have done as a kid for my parents.  Whether this product is available to you or not...
.5 out of 5

Week 3
This tutorial is readily available for free on youtube.  Only moderately interesting and not really the least bit "magical".
1 out of 5

Again there's plenty of time to make this worth the price of purchase.  One excellent effect and one solid worker would do the "trick".  I'm sure I can find a way to mix week 1's download in on occasion along with another that may be yet to come.  But to reiterate, to this point, MEH.

* My take is probably not worth a whole lot as don't perform regularly, just on occasion for friends.  With that being said I also feel like I know what looks good to me as well as what smells like shit.
