Playing Card Plethora / Re: Ellusionist "Legacy Edition" Boxes?
« on: November 26, 2016, 11:40:45 AM »
I personally don't think they need to breath life into them, the original decks are still some of the best selling around in most markets. Have anyone seen a photo or is it just renders that are knocking about?

Playing Card Plethora / Re: Fake Streamlines?

I second all those replies and comments

Is the deck from us by any chance? We have some China printed Streamlines, which we're almost out of.

Just a quick update on Elliptica. The below update would have been received by email the last few days for anyone who pre-ordered.

--------

Thanks again for your pre-order. We just wanted to update you to let you know that a slight delay has occurred at the UK port, and we now expect to be despatching your parcel by Monday, 9th May. We'll do our best to get orders out to you ASAP, and as usual they will be despatched in the order received.

Please accept our apologies for the slight (6 day) shift in the shipping deadline, but also note we're aiming to be completed by that date.

The decks are nearly here, and should land any day now. We'll be starting despatch once we've paired up (alot of) matching sets!

Thanks to everyone that made this the most succesfull LUXX pre-order to date.

Hi folks,

Just to let you know that the pre-order window will close this Friday evening, 15th.

We have 16 matching sets with numbered decks & coin left if anyone is still looking, we will make what's left available when they are officially released but they will be £45 as opposed to £35.99.

PRE-ORDERS are live folks! We've sold around 30 of the 99 sets if anyone is interested.

Hi guys pre orders are confirmed for 4PM UK time, Friday April 1st. http://jpplayingcards.co.uk/luxx-playing-cards

Pre orders are likely to be either March 31st or April 1st (TBC),

A little extra' info below:

- 50 Matching Numbered Split Bricks will be available here: http://jpplayingcards.co.uk/luxx-elliptica-playing-cards-matching-split-brick
- 99 Matching Numbered Sets (all 4 colours, plus matching dealer coin) will be available here: http://jpplayingcards.co.uk/luxx-elliptica-matching-set-4-numbered-decks-and-a-matching-dealer-coin-99-sets-only

The 99 sets will be numbered from 002/1000 through to 100/1000 and we will allocate them in the order they are purchased. So the first to order will get the 002/1000 set and so on.

If you have already added your email to the standard deck page (http://jpplayingcards.co.uk/luxx-elliptica-playing-cards) you will be notified FIRST about all 3 pages going live at least 20 minutes before anyone else on this thread, social media, newsletters, etc.

Any more questions, let me know!

You can't get lower cost than free delivery (orders over £50 of course) but I'm afraid Legends will not be selling this edition of LUXX, sorry.

11
Yes absolutely, but it definitely won't be less than £6.49 per deck. The brick box (same as Palme) will be free though.

12
Thanks Don, we think so too.

13
I should add, that whilst the price won't be as low as perhaps we first wanted in GBP, in USD it probably will look much lower simply because of the exchange rate, we are aiming for £6.99/£6.49 so if the current rate stays the same they will be approx $10 USD. Which is without a doubt the best price we've been able to achieve so far. Factor in free worldwide delivery for orders over £50 and they're great value, in my opinion.

14
That's still my intention, absolutely - but unfortunately as the pound has dropped sharply against the dollar, they will cost more to print and as such I won't be able to keep it quite as low as I'd hoped, but they will still represent the best value of any LUXX so far.

Part 2.

16
Thanks JJ, ha - you're right about the MK character :D

A few more shots of the proofs and some news on pre-orders.

Available strictly during the pre-order stage only, numbered matching sets of all 4 colours and a matching dealer coin. (see shot below). 99 sets only will be available for sale.

Part 3.

Part 2.

Here's a few shots of the proofs which arrived today folks.

Provisionally we're looking to start pre-orders at the end of March, but will confirm that soon.

JJ- the first edition will be numbered like the first decks from Randy, we will sell matching sets and we do also plan on doing something a little different if we release all 4 colours in one go. Will release more info when we have concrete plans.

Aside from the seals we have no plans for the second print run to be any different - this will allow us to keep the costs down as much.

Mr.P- we are trying our best to keep the pricing down for this and future runs, but we don't want to lose the beautiful tuck elements that are part make a LUXX deck what is it. They will definitely be the most economical release yet, but we will have to hold off on announcing pricing until it's officially gone to print.

21

May I know when would more info about this deck be announcing? I would like to know something about the stock.  How would the stock of this deck compare with the Bee Casino stock of USPCC?

It will be on classic finish- same as classic twins, classic black, etc. Classic is the closest you'd come to typical bicycle stock in my opinion, but I personally prefer the finish even more. But I'm a not a magician or cardist.

Master finish (diamond is what LPCC call it) is what we used for the original LUXX decks and I love that finish just as much, but we thought classic would be a better fit for this deck.

Don- I know, just not possible on an iPad unfortunately,

22
That's exactly what I tried to do and it said that Jpegs (as opposed to jpg) were not compatible. Anyhow, thanks for doing it.

23
Thanks for the support folks, and thanks Randy for the reply to JJs question,

We are looking at up to four colours for the first edition, but we shall wait and see how opinion pans out.

I tried to attach a few more images, but they are not compatible and I don't have access to the office desktop right now, so here's a few links to the images over at UC. If a mod could convert and publish then remove the links that would be great, sorry!








Edited to re-attach images- RPW

We are expecting the last few Palme pre-orders to be despatched tomorrow and Friday folks :) Thanks for all your support.

The official release date is Friday November 11th.
