No it was the Reds that I could only snag 1 of. The blacks weren't a problem at all. I thought it was interesting that the 500 print chase deck I could get np it was the 1000 chase deck I was limited to 1 of.
Try again, because I was having the same problem and now I could place my order without any problem..
I'm guessing Paul is realeasing the decks small batchs at time, so those are available for longer time....
Will do, thanks for the heads up. I appreciate it. Here goes double shipping haha.
Edit: I was able to purchase some more. Cart is working well now!
TL:DR It's completely up to you. We can still be friends. I actually like playing cards. We live in interesting times.

I would message Paul- if it was a site issue I'm sure he'll charge you fair shipping.
Paul, I went to buy my four decks of each, and your store is saying you're sold out of the red backs. Any chance you could loosen some reds up for me? Thanks!
Edit: Ah! I see this same issue has been reported by others here.
Via Encarded Facebooksite (45 minutes ago):
"Celestial sales update: about 50% of both decks have sold so far. If you get a notice that they are sold out, it's because curious people are putting a huge number of decks in their cart, which temporarily puts a hold on them. Try again if it looks like they are gone. I will certainly mention when they are actually fully sold out.
And please don't add hundreds of decks to the cart unless you actually want to buy that many."

MagikFingerz wrote:$24 shipping for 3 decks. And I still went through with it, because that's how much I love Paul's work.
I know, and I hate it too as it really hurts sales. But with the USPS these days, anything over 8oz (so, more than 2 decks) to anywhere in the world other than Canada is almost $22 just in postage. It's soooo harsh. But, thanks anyways for the support and take some satisfaction that you are helping reduce the US gov't debt.

I'm almost certain that mine left Sarasota late last week and are showing delivery Saturday. I don't get many things from Florida, so I am pretty sure it's Paul's Celestial decks (I'm looking at my USPS account which shows when someone mails me anything with tracking).

Maybe you get a prototype or something else surprising
Yep. What I assumed was Celestial from Paul was some OSRAM / Sylvania SilverStar hXe headlight bulbs from ebay.com for my Genesis.

Little update some hours ago via Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/encarded/photo ... 45/?type=3" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; (<--- Link to original post from Encarded)
"Celestial should be packed up at the EPCC factory and on its way to the US soon. I'll be packing up all orders and getting them out asap! Thanks for your patience with the extra few proofs on those red tucks."
"Celestial is here! The decks look great and over the next week I'll be packing all orders and you'll get an email when your decks ship. There are still a few red decks left, get your order in now before they disappear for good. "
Got mine yesterday somehow. They look beautiful. And I even got #42 so I'm pretty stoked. I can't wait to see what the cards look like when someone else (you know, one of those "openers") opens the deck and posts pictures.
I like that the seals are on the back of the tuck.
The black deck with red foil is amazing.
I'm a bit surprised that Celestial has the same but recolored courts like the 52 + Joker 2015 deck.
Returned home to the happy sight of a package from Encarded. Just opened my red deck of Celestials (the Black is going to need to retain some of its mystery for me!). I can honestly say I haven't held my breath 'inhaling' the details of a playing card deck like that since opening one of Lotrek's limited Icons editions. The superb texture and detailing on the tuck is only transcended by the quality of the cards inside. The indices are clean and somewhat minimalistic, but they somehow ooze high quality and imbue a very lux feel. The courts trump the lot, however, right on par with some of Lotrek and Jackson's finest.
I second guessed whether or not to pull the trigger on this one (budget mainly - collecting in the Southern Hemisphere is becoming somewhat decimating to the finances, but enough of that dead horse). What a bullet I dodged when I did buy these. I own a couple of other Encarded decks and respect and admire the brand implicitly, not only for some of the features achieved above, but for the lack of 'drama' associated with delivery now common to other creators. You get more than you pay for without delay or fuss, this shows a respect for an individuals custom and makes you want to keep coming back.
Thankyou so very much Paul/Encarded, your stellar product will be taking pride of place in my collection.
