I'm assuming you're all referring to the Ultraviolet deck.I think the problem of this deck was the price, the faces and the advertising.
Nathan, it's not so easy to arbitrarily reduce the goal to get the deck made, especially in the figures you're talking about. Without enough cash to fund the printing, packaging and shipping, the project will screech to a halt. What would they leave out by slashing their budget by a third? Would they make people come get the decks themselves and to hell with the deliveries? Or maybe they'd just stick stamps on the tuck boxes and bricks and simply hope that they reach their destinations intact? They could try skimping on the printing part, but if they do, there's not really much there worth packaging and shipping, now is there?
I'm sure there's some wiggle room in their budget, but one-third is a huge chunk. And let's not forget that they are trying to make at least some profit on the deck - sure, it's a labor of love, but love doesn't pay the gas and electric bills.
Did you hear they found a less-expensive way to ship overseas? If you haven't check the shipping prices since opening day, you might want to take another look. I really like the NOC deck in all its colors, but purple fans will love the purple deck.In fact, I checked the shipping prices only in the opening day...

Hey @zim, The NOC from HOPC has plain purple decks. If you really just wanted a plain purple one you can go with them.
the Eclipse is really cutting it close. I wonder if they will make it

I don't want the red one, just blue.
Where are you and do you already have the red one?
Actually he is negotiable if you contact him directly.
:|He does, expensive though! >.<:|
Expensive is too nice.
18$ for international shipping is overpriced to me.
Why not buy them from fullboatdealer?
