We here at Illusions Defined have got a Yellow standard deck for pre-order on http://www.illusionsdefined.co.uk It is priced at £4.50/$7.02. After the great success of the Bicycle Yellow RIDER BACKS we thought we'd do a re-release so here come the yellow standards! Pre-order now! :D

The site states they won't be ready until November, a half-year away.  Why are they going to take so long to become available?  I could have them done in less time.

Especially since it's just a new tuck box, no?

The cards have to be printed to go with the tuck box, so there's more to it.  But not six months more.

Don, not sure about this, but wouldn't this belong in the STISO? I'm not sure, but IllusionsDefined, are you the designer of this deck? Welcome to the forums!

I don't have authorization to move posts outside of my board.  You'd need to approach Curt or Alex.

EDIT: thanks for moving this, Curt!

I'm just guessing here, but it seems IllusionsDefined is making the modern "Standard" box version of the original Yellow Rider Backs.  In that case, I'm thinking he'd be using standard Bike stock and finish.  This would actually make them a little lighter than the original, since USPC switched to a 300gsm paper for Bicycles recently.

These cards as said are Air Cushion Finish. We have added a new gaff. If you guys would like them earlier then you can have them earlier it's just we don't normally make sales so we thought no-one would buy them.

I think a lot of people will want to buy these. The first edition is very rare so many wouldn't want to miss out on a second edition.

I like that better. Can't wait for this deck. I love yellow decks.
