The performance of the site wasn't unusual given the number of different browsers slamming it. I've seen this kind of thing with other popular collectibles - the Hot Wheels Redline Club site used to get totally slammed whenever a new item would come out because everyone was trying to buy their limit.

I was unable to get in for a while. I just got a blank page, though I had gotten the pages with photos earlier. I tried different browsers and different computers. Eventually, someone on Facebook mentioned using https. I used that and accepted the certificate exception since it looked legit to me and I'm using a virtual machine environment. I was able to get in and create an account, and after that I had no problems.

I just went in to check it out.

Cards and uncuts are still there, box sets are gone. Lucky I got one.

This site wasn't working for me last night, but now it is. Can anyone tell me how much the collector's sets were at?
Alex, congrats on perhaps the most successful individual's playing card launch.

Alex, congrats on perhaps the most successful individual's playing card launch.

They were about $50 each. I wanted to get one, and now regret that I didn't, but hey I'm surprised I got any.

At 11p.m. est, I went to bed and set an alarm, for the release time. Some reason it didn't go off, and I woke up at 4a.m., freaking out that I missed the launch. At the time I was up they were still in stock.

Man, I regret not buying one........
I LIKE MAILBOXES!

All the decks are now SOLD OUT, some uncut sheets still available though. @loldudex2, I was tempted by one also but the extra $27 (minus the $20 for the set) was a little much for me, I'm trying to cut back a little so I couldn't really buy it.

Are they the same as the one's released by DnD but with the seasons logo? Also how many decks did you get?

Have no fear... I'm sure in about 2 weeks there will be a flood of these in the aftermarket

I was thinking that they would sell out faster than they did but the release was late at night/early the next day, so a lot of people probably bought them today.
Sorry to hear that Nathan. Maybe you can get them from resellers.

Yeh Nathan I'm sure you'll be able to get some from resellers, just get them as early as you can to save having to pay too much extra. Why did you wait though, were you at work or did you have problems with the site?

I imagine a lot of people on here will have a few to sell. I wanted to ensure I got plenty to last me a long time, so I've got extras and will probably let a few go after.

I'm hoping the after-market price won't be too high. Once these hit the market I should maybe wait for the price to stabilize before getting some. I'm hoping it won't be higher than 40$ a set. I'll have to wait and see.

Just wait for version two if it is high.  Version one will likely go down in price - or perhaps you'll just get version two at retail instead.

only got the order confirmation so far, no shipment yet and I put my order through right at the start. No worries though, it'll go out when it goes out.

I don't know what the issue was, but many of us had that problem. I was only able to access the site once they were sold out. What browser/computer were you using? Alex Chin said he knew that problem was taking place but didn't know how to solve it since he wasn't experiencing it himself.
