They need to add more new stuff if they expect anyone to spend more money. They haven't had any new decks in ages and I haven't really seen a whole lot of other new stuff. What the hell are we supposed to spend $100 on?

CBJ · « **Reply #3 on:** July 12, 2012, 07:12:49 PM »

Yeah, it's very hard to spend $100..

I own multiples of all their decks already... so now what?

And.. I had to spend way more to get my BG1... I'm sure this will lower the value of them

ugh

I've always wanted a Black Ghost V1 but I'm low on money and with all these new decks coming out, it's hard for me to spend $100 on decks that I already have multiple of.

Man, you got that right. I have more than plenty of all there cards as well as magic dvd's. What in the world am i supposed to spend $100 on when I got everything they have and haven't had anything worth while. What to do, what to do......

Man I already have several BGv1 and LTDs... I'm done collecting new release "limited" decks now. I know the quantities here are very small, and I do hear their stock on both of those is running extremely low, but the only reason I got so many LTDs was because of the promise that they will be impossible to get outside of contests in the future.

This is a godly deal for anyone who doesn't have these decks yet, though. Like you guys said, the hard part is finding $100 worth of stuff to buy. I for one still have several bricks of their cards from the holidays left. There is just no demand for them because of how oversaturated the market is now.

Good lord, how many more BG1E do they have? I've had mine for years now.

Aaron · « **Reply #8 on:** July 12, 2012, 10:43:12 PM »

I am extremelt happy! I just got paid today and I have been waiting for today to make an order for $120 of tricks

Now I get a BG1E with them! Yipii!!!

Anyone have an opinion on Smiley? I am looking at it but dont know if it will end up being crap.

This seems like an amazing sale for people like me who don't own either (aka me), but times are tough. I will have to pass.

So here I am slowly paying off my Credit Card fee and this happens

danktrees · « **Reply #11 on:** July 13, 2012, 12:49:56 AM »

is it just me or is it giving a bgv2 deck instead of the v1 deck? I placed my order and it shows v2. I emailed them to ask but I doubt they'll get back to me till tomorrow.

Aaron · « **Reply #12 on:** July 13, 2012, 01:22:42 AM »

I want to order but it still says V2 decks in the cart

Atheosile · « **Reply #13 on:** July 13, 2012, 02:34:02 AM »

I ordered mine and do not worry, you will get the BGv1 for sure. I talked to Jake...Also, you have to understand that the BGv1 was not sold to the public but given away to professionals, giveaways, promotions also such as this. Also, because of this, since they did not sell them on their site they cannot put v.1 but they used the v.2 as the fill in if you will...Hope this helps you guys out, even if you can always cancel your order but no worries, you will receive the BGv1

Aaron · « **Reply #14 on:** July 13, 2012, 02:38:28 AM »

thanks atheosile

I ordered about half an hour ago and am very excited for my deck.

Why isnt jake clarifying for people on the FB page though?

E does cater to magicians more than collectors - and they just released a new DVD for Pure Smoke... Comes with two packs of refills... You could easily break $100.13 like that.

LeonJL · « **Reply #17 on:** July 13, 2012, 09:33:55 AM »

The DVD comes with 2 refills? If it does comes with 2 refills, then I might just be picking it up.

PS: I've already read the Pure Smoke DVD page but I might be a half blind so it would be great if someone can point out where that info is written. Thanks.

Do you subscribe to their email list? That's where I got it. Check your spam folder.

I think that's a limited-time offer.

Hey - I just looked and I can't find that statement. Was I hallucinating or something? What I did find, though, is that if you're buying Pure Smoke for the first time, they'll toss in the DVD for free - this weekend only.

MSimonart · « **Reply #19 on:** July 14, 2012, 03:57:29 AM »

Don, the 2 free refills were only if you already had bought Pure Smoke, or if you bought it until wednesday from this week. That gift is over now. You will recieve your dvd though

See, I knew I wasn't going crazy!

I'd love to order that DVD, but I've got SOOOO many DVDs right now from last Christmas, I could train to win the championship at FISA! I've pulled way back on the spending.

MSimonart · « **Reply #21 on:** July 14, 2012, 05:48:26 AM »

It isn't the time to pull back on the spending, with all the decks coming. I'd say, wait until summer is over

I hate to say it, but I think I'll have to pass on this one. I'm short on money, and I'm not really into collecting older decks. I'm more interested in having the newer decks. I just think it's crazy to pay $80 for one deck. So I'm gonna pass on this one. I'm just sad I'll miss the LTD deck, cause this is really my type of deck. That minimalistic looking. Just perfect...

Re pulling back on spending: tell that to my fiancee. My wedding is in six weeks!

Re the LTD deck: the Artifice deck is simple in design and actually bears some similarities to the LTD. The "black" color on the LTD (light gray) is also kind of light.

You want REALLY simple, get the NOC deck - it's cheap, too!

Don't worry, got them. I like minimalistic, but I think NOC is too extreme...

And being a colector, it's always nice too have all the decks you like
