Hey everyone, I found this peculiar auction on Ebay. I thought a few of you might be interested in getting this deck without the $150 price tag. It's the first one I've seen, so I'm surprised someone has it up already. I for one will want to see how high this will go. Might get it might not. Are you guys going to bid? Leave replies down below.

It has a reserve, so I doubt the reserve will be less than $100.

I will be getting three and I will have 1 to sell. I hope to wait till demand is high and sell it.

Reserves.... so mysterious

But anyway, I'm not going to get it... I'm happy with the one that I will be receiving soon

Well the bid is already at $80 and it hasn't met the reserve price...
Also it seems like the "right" price for the reserve for that deck to me

The bid is now up to $100, I doubt it will go any higher.

Holy mama, did not expect it to get that high so quickly. I think it will end at around $120.

It seems a little silly for the auction to be going that high... If indeed the deck does sell for ~ $120 then why not just make a $150 order to Ellusionist? Get the LTD deck plus a whole whack of other items/decks you can use or sell or trade.

International shipping costs would make it more like $180 though, at the very least, right?

^^ Ya, thats a valid point, but still... for the shear amount of stuff you get for the $180 on top of getting the LTD deck it still does not really make total sense to me. I would much rather spend the extra bit of cash and have something more to show than just one deck of cards. And I mean, it would not be too difficult to offset some of those costs by just having something like a "holiday sale"

True, but not everyone has access to an entire board of 400+ awesome people either.

They would if they joined the Discourse!

Anyways back on topic, I am very curious to see how this sells... might possibly sway my decision into putting up the money to have a $150 order to E.

Yeah, but it's much better to buy other decks of Pure smoke and sell it for 100$ So, it's possible to get some money back. I think the cost of that deck shouldn't be over $75.

i completely agree i reckon the cost of this deck should be under 50

Well, I don't see a reserve on it and it's still at $100. Ironically, only two people have been bidding on it against each other... Possible price fixing? You decide!

Kanped · « **Reply #16 on:** December 01, 2011, 01:58:49 PM »

Well, one of them has 0 feedback, so...

xela · « **Reply #17 on:** December 01, 2011, 02:58:15 PM »

The reserve was there yesterday. It has been met, so the "reserve has not been met" text is taken off.

And its now at $100 so you were probably right

austin · « **Reply #19 on:** December 01, 2011, 04:17:33 PM »

The price will probably go up after awhile though, like after christmas.

Here's another LTD auction with a "buy it now" of $200!!!!

WHo the hell would spend that, when you can go to Ellusionist and spend $150 and get it for free

Kanped · « **Reply #22 on:** December 04, 2011, 10:17:49 AM »

I just don't see the big deal. If they were $6.99 I'd still give them a miss. Actually, that could be interesting; if this was a regular retail deck for $6.99 that anybody could buy whenever they liked, how many of you would get it?

phantom1412 · « **Reply #23 on:** December 04, 2011, 10:51:27 AM »

That's very true.
All things in this shop is expensive. I believe this shop is not located in USA.
