i knew it !! there were think of way to get ltd on the market .. during that period when LTD deck were available as a free gift , my friend and i were talking about they were going to sell it or something like that since they cant keep the remaining LTD for themself ( and we think that the remaining might be around 1000 to 2000)
Based on comments I heard from E staff regarding the holiday season giveaways, I'd be shocked if there were 2000 of ANY of their rare decks remaining. There has to be closer to 1000, maybe 1500 on the outside. As of last summer, they reported they had 1000 of BG1E and 4000 of Gold Arcane. We know they have far less than 2000 Red Artifice, because they sold off 3000 of 5000 on the first day they were available. The one deck they gave away the most of at the holidays was Ltd., and I was told there weren't many stocks remaining on any of their rare giveaway decks.
there were so many gold arcane promotion and there are still 4000 left ?? i do not think 2000 will be left .. i know the red artifice were sold out very fast but there were sold for a cheap price .. but ltd were only given away as a gift for people who spent $150 and i do not think there will be 3000+ people who spent 150
You didn't read the post you quoted, did you? At least not carefully. I stated that as of
last summer, they stated in the blog that they had 1000 BG1E and 4000 Gold Arcane. Shortly after that blog post, they had the Red Artifice sale, which brought them from 5000 to 2000 in a single 24-hour period.
With all the promotions since then, the numbers of these decks are dwindling. Someone from E (I think Marcus) mentioned that they had little stock left on all of their rare decks after the holidays.
This is why I suspect they're going to blow the rest of the LTDs out in a whopper of a giveaway - they're making room for a new rare deck in the lineup. And I think it's not so coincidental that the offer/contest/whatever is on the same night as the grand opening of HOPC...
