This deck is absolutely beautiful. But $19 for an EPCC deck, shipped? Nope. Sorry. And it's a damn shame because I would love to own this. What happened to the days where people used EPCC to LOWER decks costs?? :(

Not bad if you want 4 decks... which I don't. And that reminds me of another gripe I have- more and more campaigns have stupid EBs. It used to be that EBs were incentives for early backers to get a great deal as a "thanks" for getting the project off the ground early. But now it's becoming more and more common to have EBs as a tactful ploy to get backers to spend more money. Even though they may still be a better value it's still costing backers more, not to mention that not all backers want 4 of the same deck (e.g. me).

Living in Japan, this project interests me. I really like the tuck, the back design, the Aces and the attention to detail. However, I just don't like the court cards.

Just not my cup of green tea.

$15 per deck shipped is better- thanks. But I still stand by what I previously said. [BACON]

The artwork is pretty nice... On the faces.

The backs of the cards do this campaign no justice. Easy pass.

A new add-on goal has just been announced. If the project reaches HK$170,000 (about $21,770 USD) they will release a Bicycle-branded deck:

Printed on Bee stock with metallic ink. As of this post that means about $3,100 more needs to be raised BUT still no mention of how much it will cost to add-on.
