These decks are bargain-priced at only $20 each!

Just kidding, it's nowhere near that much. Price will be announced when the decks go on sale on the 6th.

Lol... im guessing $5.95 per deck because thats the price of the crown decks but thats just a guess

Black Crown had metallic inks and I think an embossed box. Thats adds some money

Anyone know what time these go on sale and if we will be able to buy them from other sites aside from just thebluecrown.com?

Don't know an exact time.
And they will probably be available here too: http://newyorkmagicproject.com/

They said if the demand is there, then they may reprint them

Great! I won't be hurried to buy them then.
I'm dying because of this shipping. Everyone releasing decks every week.

The run was done by my company, The New York Magic Project. I also work quite a lot with my friends at the Blue Crown, so they will be carrying some of the decks too.

Hey, I love that site - I was on there earlier and it's still loaded in my browser! I just got my Christmas bonus from work and was considering a little shopping. Why oh why don't you have a retail shop of your own somewhere in the city? Two great shops are nice, but three would be so much better!

Quote from: Reylek on December 03, 2011, 02:06:11 PM

Yes, they have the Magic finish, which is USPC's top-of-the-line premium finish. I just prefer the terminology of "premium" on the box itself, since many people out there wouldn't know what "magic finish" means when printed on the box.

Ellusionist does the same thing - they call Magic Finish "Performance Coating" but it's the exact same stuff. Apparently they think their name is classier!

Pretty much everyone in the card collecting and magic/cardistry communities know what Magic Finish is by now! But Premium sounds better.

Reylek, thanks for the post! I'm looking forward to this deck and seeing what else you come up with in the future!! The arrcos are a great deck and this new white color variation is awesome! so fresh

Marcus · « **Reply #36 on:** December 04, 2011, 10:55:00 AM »

The Arrcos look interesting, might have to take a look at them. Nice work, Reylek.

Actually, Performance Coating was the project's name when we were developing the finish in cooperation with USPCC. USPCC later decided to refer to it as 'Magic Finish' when they offered it to other companies and customers, so 'Performance Coating' has been around longer than 'Magic Finish'.

I think the new app is already on the app store since yesterday.

BIG NEWS!!!
A VERY LIMITED SUPPLY OF WHITE ARRCO DECKS WILL BE AVAILABLE TONIGHT AT 12am EST! The Blue Crown
thebluecrown.com

Anybody have info on the other website releasing these? I have purchased a few decks from the NY magic project but it says somewhere in this thread about them launching an Arcco dedicated site.

Well, I believe it was the NY Magic Project who got the decks printed. It says "NYMP" on the bottom of the deck box.

munro159 · « **Reply #41 on:** December 05, 2011, 04:27:51 PM »

yeah I know about the NYMP. ( side note: They have excellent customer service if anyone sees anything interesting on there. I bought the last of their white ghost stock and they were all OHIO UV500 decks!.) I was asking if anyone had heard the web address for their Arrco dedicated site.

Reylek · « **Reply #42 on:** December 05, 2011, 04:52:07 PM »

Hey guys. Yes, it is an NYMP deck, but it will not be on our traditional site. We are switching over to a new system with a dedicated URL for the Arrcos. Launch will be at 12:00AM (midnight) EST tonight, so basically about 7 hours after this post.

Our friends over at The Blue Crown will have a limited supply of the decks, and I'd certainly encourage folks to pick the decks up over there, along with some of the beautiful new 2nd edition Crown Decks. One great thing is that the Crown decks and White Arrcos all use Arrco faces, so they can be used together for various odd-backed routines that require cohesive faces.

KPopFever605 · « **Reply #43 on:** December 05, 2011, 07:33:43 PM »

I actually don't really like the idea of releasing decks so close to each other. I believe that they should ship out the Black Crowns before they send out anything else. I haven't even gotten my confirmation yet, and they now decide to release something else. Now, with this release, they are going to be doubly packed. I just hope I can get mine soon!

Don Boyer · « **Reply #44 on:** December 06, 2011, 12:05:28 AM »

I tried the custom Arrco site, but no dice.

I tried thebluecrown.com - bought a brick.

I'm up for selling extras if people get shut out. (Not likely on this release, but still.)

cosmicsecret · « **Reply #45 on:** December 06, 2011, 12:34:23 AM »

I bought 2 of them,one for the collection and one for magic - btw they sold out under 30minutes.
Haven´t recieved any shipping confimration for my black crown decks either....as long as its delivered before christmas i´m fine.

cosmicsecret · « **Reply #46 on:** December 06, 2011, 12:42:12 AM »

currently they are still aviable at http://arrcocards.com/products/arrco-playing-cards/#
same prices like at Thebluecrown!

Don Boyer · « **Reply #47 on:** December 06, 2011, 12:49:52 AM »

I just noticed they're sold out now - checked the BC site. That was quick.

When I get my brick I'll post a sale for them, reasonably priced.

And yes, the site Cosmicsecret spotted has them, plus uncut sheets. BC had them in stock first - I tried loading arrcocards.com and kept getting the "coming soon" screen moments after midnight, while BC had them for sale. The Arrco site is branded with the NYMP logo.

I like this in the features description on the Arrco site, just after the stuff about the two double-backers:

"There may just be other surprises to find as well!"

Hmm.....

cosmicsecret · « **Reply #48 on:** December 06, 2011, 12:59:06 AM »

well one of those secrets i think it will be a barcode reveal but i hope i´m wrong!
They should keep making decks which are pre stacked - love it!
This is far more practical then doing some faro´s and overhand shuffles to get into SiStebbins or simular stacks from a new deck order (Ace through King).
God...i´ve become so lazy the last years hehehe :-X

KPopFever605 · « **Reply #49 on:** December 06, 2011, 01:03:30 AM »

Hm... seems as if it's a deck made for magicians now, i like it. although, it's tough to decide on the uncut sheets. only 50 to be sold. right now my bank doesn't have the dough, but if I can get money in it by tomorrow, i might just get it.
