  • Pick a card, any card...no, not THAT card!

Thanks Randy.

Don, no kidding. Thaks for once again being the master of the obvious, and true to your normal "critical of everyone else" nature. I apologize for not asking my question in more simpler terms for you but then again, it wasn't directed to you, unless you speak on behalf of Randy.

My intent was to make sure that he had enough of all colors to keep the store open until then. He could have 3 of each color and while his intent would be to keep it open until the end of March, he might very well run out of stock before then. If his reply was "Yes, I have plenty of stock to supply me until then", then I could put off a purchase until later in the month with some confidence that there would be a good chance that he would still have stock at that point and time.

You have to admit, your statement above is much more informative than "Randy, so we can still order the S & S deck boxes until then?," especially considering that two posts earlier Randy stated his store would remain open until the end of March...  I had images in my mind of a humorous response from Randy along the lines of "No, you can't, but everyone else can!," or "No, I'm hoarding those for the zombie apocalypse - it's not like I'll need money after then anyway, right?"  Perhaps next time I will toss in a :)) to indicate the less-than-serious nature in which the comment was written.  Until then, relax and laugh a little, bro!  :))

  • Ugh, I wish I had money for THAT deck!
I received an email from HOPC 20 minutes ago as of this post. Only 25 of each color!

"We've gotten tons of great comments about the beautifully detailed artwork on the new ORNATE Decks. These incredible decks sold out ultra fast when we released them earlier this month.

Today we're offering ORNATE Amethyst and Emerald uncut sheets so you can enjoy the beautiful style of the deck all the time! Like all of our sheets, these were pulled straight
off the printing presses at USPC and are not posters or replications. You're getting an authentic, uncut sheet that was saved before being cut into a deck. These sheets are highly prized by collectors around the world - and once they're gone, they're gone. Get them HERE."

Thanks, Randy

Hey the cards are beautiful! The uncuts do them justice for sure and so do these pictures HOPC took.

In for cards, in for uncuts.

I swear, if Randy and Paul (Encarded) keep releasing designs of the same caliber that they have been in the past, I will be in the poor house in no time!! I just can't resist buying them, and probably far more of them than I should!! :-)
