It's by Hong Kong celebrity, Edison Chen. Just like BAPE, OriginalXFake, this is another Bicycle branded playing card printed by USPCC for a fashion brand.
 
It seems like it won't be sold, but only given out to customers who purchase over a certain not-yet-decided amount.

That looks pretty, I wouldn't mind having a few... But if the price comes high I probably won't bother.

To me, the back design looks crisp and edgy.

@sxjy0109 - So, what your telling me is that this deck is going to be sold like the White Fans and LTD's, whereas you'd need to buy something in order to get this deck?

I will be getting some if they come out later in the new year, that way, I can get my financials together.

I really like these, nice jokers. Are the court cards faces missing? If so thats pretty cool. Love the backs, but it looks like a standard ace of spades. I'll add them to my to get list :)

Yah, it does look like the court cards are missing their faces, it just makes them that much more awesome. I really like it a lot, although, it questions me how they customized the court cards, but not the ace.

Yes, the court cards are missing their faces =) I find its kinda cool when you mix red with black for the backs. I am also guessing the price aint going to be cheap though.

Sorry for the small pic again. Thats the best I can find.

Here we go guys.

There were 72 decks this afternoon... now there are only 48 left.

As far as I know, the rest will be sold at the store in Hong Kong.

Be warned, the deck works out to about 21USD... and  the shipping for a single deck will kill you.

I would get a group of American to team up and order a brick.  Me and a fellow Canadian split on a brick

I really like them, but I think I'll pass, too expensive for a new deck... Maybe I'll get one from someone here later.

I like the overall looks, though I would have preferred if the card's back design is black like the design on the box instead of red.


Will buy one to keep and one to open up just to check out the eerie faceless court cards. I find them disturbingly attractive...

I quite like the look of the deck but not enough to pay over $20 for it,

I took  the payment right to the end of paypal (Wasn't game to go any further) and I wasn't seemingly being charged any shipping so I've got no idea what the shipping would be like

I ordered a half-brick.  Not cheap.  Barely fits within my pricing rule of thumb.  I'll use more than half as either trading fodder or eBay cash-bringers.


THIS IS NOT AN OFFER OF SALE OR TRADE.  When I get them, if I sell them here, I'll make one.  I make it a policy to never sell what I'm not holding in my hands.

Really nice deck!! I love the faceless court cards, but I'm going to pass because of the price. Although I do hope to pick up a couple of these eventually, but I'm in no rush


@Sabacc I respect that! It seems many people are selling items they don't even have haha

Too many.  Way too many.  The part that irks me is when they give the most bare-bones description of the item but can't even tell you anything about it when asked - like that Blink-182 deck.  Someone on eBay was selling it and couldn't even answer whether it was a USPC-made deck or not.

Oh they charge you shipping after you try to complete your order through paypal.  In my experience (just about ordered a deck) shipping was more than the deck.  Although this could be a flat shipping rate....How much was your shipping good@sabacc if you don't mind me asking...

The deck was HK$160.  I bought six - total of HK$960.  Domestic orders for that amount were HK$1200 with shipping, while mine was HK$1300 for an international shipment.


PayPay is charging me an exchange rate of HK$7.57619 to the dollar, and charging me US$171.59.

International shipping cost for 3 decks is HK$200 (domestic is HK$100), in case anyone wishes to know.


I find it strange that the shipping cost is only given all the way right to the end of the purchasing process. I initially thought that the shipping cost has been integrated into the deck price and that is why it was expensive. The final shipping cost advice took me by surprise.

I warned you guys the shipping was crazy.

To get to the shipping prices, you have to start the checkout process with paypal, then once you're in paypal BEFORE you do your final confirmation... you will see the shipping info.

It ain't cheap, shipping included, but it's a nice looking deck - more unique than a lot of the "clothing store one-shots" that have been coming out lately.  Not to say they aren't nice, but there's just been so many - these stand out a little more.
