I contacted support and they said they will ship it to me with First Class International shipping for cheaper. But they said they can't offer refunds then.

Today I found something that reminded me of you. But don't worry I flushed and everything went back to normal.

I wonder if they'll be having a second run of this deck... silver edition blades did have a second run.

It was the ONLY one that got a second edition.  I'd say the odds aren't good.

Perhaps De'vo will release some from his personal stock. It wouldn't be the first time that has happened.

It's now over, the deck is still listed on the products page but it's sold out.

Oh, sorry. I assumed that since it wasn't on the "Sold Out" section that they were still available.

Devo said that if the Bloods are popular there will be a reprint, so there probably will be.

Just got an e-mail:

"This message was sent to you at the request of Xtremehandz.com, to notify you that they have shipped a package to you."

the estimated delivery is 1-3 days. Anyone got similar e-mails yet?

Yup, mines has been shipped today too. Had to check the junk folder - hotmail doesn't seem to like Handlordz' emails and keeps sending them there! Mines is international too, so it would appear they're on top of both domestic and international orders, assuming that they did indeed have a surge of orders over the weekend, which would seem fair given the sell-out of this deck. Can't see I'm on tenterhooks waiting for this deck. I really like the red colour, but I'll probably just take it out to have a look and set it on the shelf. I'm not quite at the stage where I avoid buying De'Vo's products, but I certainly dislike the individual enough to not feel encouraged to buy from there.
Oh, Lawd!

 I was going to pick up one of the Blood edition, but didn't act fast enough.
 
 If by chance someone picked up a brick, and would like to do me a favour...  pm me.

Got my 4 Bloods in today! This is the first deck from De'vo I've ever owned so I can't compare to his previous decks, but I do like the design on these with the deep red on the backs. They also handle pretty well, so overall I'm pleased.

I got my 2 decks today and I am a little disappointed. It's my first De'vo deck so I didn't really know what to expect handling wise but it doesn't handle well out of the box. Hopefully it will feel nicer once I break it in. The decks is pretty cool and I love the coloring of the court cards but the back design seems to be lacking something.

Really? the blades are renowned for handling amazingly straight out of the box. I've got all the others and without exception they all handle amazingly at first before getting worse.

I missed out on these so can't compare at the moment I'll try and pic some up from a reseller.

I don't understand why all these deck releases happen one week before payday when funds are tight. rather than the first of the month when we are all flush.

I thought they weren't very good out of the box either, but after working them around a bit I thought they handled well. Not spectacular, just well.

I got mine today as well, it handles well out of the box, fanning and faro seems fine too.

I just notice the barcode gives us a little hint...  ;)

Maybe it's just telling us it's 15T 3D1T10N(1st edition) ? does the 8100 D in front mean 8100 Decks are printed? also, does anyone have any previous blades so maybe the barcode can be compared?

Both the White and Midnights Both state 1st edition on the barcode and De'vo has stated they will not be reprinted so I wouldn't hold your breath for a second edition blood release. I really hope I'm wrong as I missed out on these.

On the previous page someone quoted De'vo as having said if this was a popular run he'd make a second run.

So I didn't actually intend to purchase any of this deck.  As a collector I like the Blades series and wouldn't mind having them, but they just weren't anything special to me.  I did however order two decks of the April Fool's Deck.  But what did I get in the mail yesterday?  2 decks of Blades - Blood.  Boy was I disappointed... I guess I'll keep em (considering they are sold out), but I'm re-ordering my Pro Cardistry decks.  I WANT MY UNICORNS!
