has he fixed the pips on the 8 9 and 10 yet?  they are completely screwy. ???


I know what you mean - but I think that's intentional.


Now he's slashed the per-deck cost - anyone can get as many as they want at $5 a pack.


Russell - can he really make a 2,500 deck run at USPC for only $5,000?  This guy's doing all he can to insure getting overfunded, because I suspect that's the only way this will get made.  $5K just sounds like too little.

no possible way he can get it funded at USPCC for $5,000.  Art-costs, taxes, prototypes, the he has to SHIP them.


if he only pulls in 5k he is screwed.


---edit---
obviously many factors play into how much each decks costs but i bet after all is said and done he is looking at $3/deck cost... not including shipping.

...meaning he HAS to hit overfunding just to break even.  Yikes.

I know that - I've pointed it out myself.  But it's not a terribly common practice - I've only seen Cosmo Solano do this for a single project.  Not impossible, just not likely.
