Re: The "Hey, look what I added to my collection!" thread
A quick question about my purchace from ebay about 15 minutes ago. Soooo... I just bought an offical, sealed deck of Jurassic Park Playing Cards, printed by USPCC in 1993.
Anyone here that owns one? Are they rare? I have never seen one, and it is printed in 1993 by USPCC, so one would think them to be worth something right?
I can show some pictures once I actually get it, I actually haved it ship for Sherman in California, who will ship it out to me with some other decks sometime in the future, so I won't have it in my hands for some time. I paid 8,90 $ and about 7 $ for shipping, so it wasn't that pricey either. Let me know if anyone knows anything!

Re: The "Hey, look what I added to my collection!" thread
I'm fairly certain that I bought one of these back in '93. I don't recall the courts being custom, but I could easily be wrong there. Are they "worth something"? I'd think that they might be worth more to a Jurassic Park collector than to a playing card collector, but not very much to either.

As for rare/value, just check ebay sold listings, seems you got a fair price, but so have a number of others recently. http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R4 ... &LH_Sold=1

Hope springs eternal, Rap!
BTW, what's with the all the Sierra Madre love? Did you grow up there? and/or are you living there now? I grew up in Baldwin Park. CA, not far from there. I've driven through it many, many times, but don't recall much about it, sorry.

Re: The "Hey, look what I added to my collection!" thread
The Sierra Madre thing is from one of my favorite video games of all time, Fallout: New Vegas and it's amazing DLC Dead Money. Dead Money has an amazing feel and look and the its story about the legendary Sierra Madre casino, frozen in time, looking over the city of dead with a red toxic cloud looming over and the treasures of the Old World inside. Finding it is not the hard part. It's letting go. Basically the story, the melancholy feel and the haunting Art Deco look left a deep impact

What I learned the hard way with Baseball cards in the late 80's and 90's is that any collectibles worth, from Baseball cards to coins to Playing cards, has a lot more to do with rarity than age. And sometimes you have to be careful with that. Ellusionist decimated the Value of my Black Club, Red Arcane and Gold Artifice decks when they decided to have a sale and dump hundreds or thousands of decks onto the market all at once. Beware of artificial rarity.

Re: The "Hey, look what I added to my collection!" thread
Yeah I fell for artifical rarity some times on my earlier collecting days, as well for the hype. Luckily I am getting smarter and I only really buy anymore what I want and not what people making hype about nothing tell me I should want.nECr0MaNCeD wrote:What I learned the hard way with Baseball cards in the late 80's and 90's is that any collectibles worth, from Baseball cards to coins to Playing cards, has a lot more to do with rarity than age.

I actually thought that these would be rare as I had never seen one, it was a bit old and I thought that they would be collectable because of the popularity of the movie. But yeah, I should have done some background checking... Well at least the tuck case is quite nice so I'll just keep it sealed.

Re: The "Hey, look what I added to my collection!" thread
An interesting example of this is the playing card deck "Kennedy Kurds", the courts of which are portrayed by various family members and friends of the Kennedy family (JFK, Jackie, Bobby et al).nECr0MaNCeD wrote:Räpylätassu wrote:Thanks ecNate and RSLancastr.

Ellusionist decimated the Value of my Black Club, Red Arcane and Gold Artifice decks when they decided to have a sale and dump hundreds or thousands of decks onto the market all at once. Beware of artificial rarity.
The deck was published not long before JFK was assassinated, at which time the decks were taken down from store shelves and sent back to the publisher ("Humor House", if memory serves), (along with other merchandise depicting JFK in a satirical manner), considering the deck to be "in poor taste" in light of the tragedy.
As a result of this, very few copies of the deck were "in circulation". And published price lists for political collectibles had the deck isted for $80.00 or more (and this was in the 1980s & 1990s).
BUT THEN...
Apparently, someone happened upon a cache of the decks in an old warehouse somewhere, and started selling them, a few at a time (thus keeping the price inflated). Eventually, a ton of the decks got dumped into the collectibles market, and copies of the deck were EVERYWHERE, usually selling for around $5.00.
When eBay began (as "Auction Web"), there was seldom a day when there were fewer than five or six listings of the deck, with most of them going for five to ten dollars.

Re: The "Hey, look what I added to my collection!" thread
This Jules Verne deck by Grimaud came today. Really cool one, 100 % custom.
I really like it, the Aces are great and it even has custom pips. Quite nice one IMO! Picked this one up from Naipeszaca.com.

Unexpected knock at the door: FedEx with my customized Love is a Smoke (#8 of 20) cigar box, San Cristobal with a gadsden (revolutionary war) flag coiled "Don't Tread On Me" tattoo
As usual, probably sideways because my phone ignores the 90° rotation setting... Double click and it (usually) displays correctly.

Got my custom box in today as well, but unfortunately the hinge broke during transit.
Careful with the Gadsden symbol now, liberal pussies are pushing their way on that now too.
Wearing ‘Don’t Tread on Me’ insignia could be punishable racial harassment

Re: The "Hey, look what I added to my collection!" thread
I received my UUSI Brüt Tarot copper gilded deck and display box today. No pics yet but holy crap is the box nice. Being a woodworker myself I can appreciate the thought that went into the designing, construction and finish of the box. Well worth it IMO. Anyone that is contemplating issuing a display box with their decks should draw inspiration from Peter & Linnea
BTW - I got number 1 of 10 too. Freaking stoked about that.

Even though I cut back recently, I got a few in during the past month or so. Newest includes the elusive Mana Sybil Livida and the Deviant Moon Tarot

Re: The "Hey, look what I added to my collection!" thread
Nah, I've cut back a lot lately and really I rarely like black backgrounds on cards so the gold on blue I just wasn't feeling it. Nice otherwise though.
