Ascension by Steve Minty

I was excited to participate in the sale but " I got nothing".
My first choice (anubus osiris set) was in my cart, when i tried to pay "Sold out"
Quickly back to put a single "Osiris" deck in my cart.
Sold out again. I guess others shared my frustration.
Bummed .

Wow, that was the first time I have been involved in something like that and it ended up being very disappointing. Since last week I was excited that I would finally get an Anubis and an Orisis deck. I suspected items would go quick but that was surprising. I refreshed it quite often before the sale. When it went live I added them to my cart and then got a message that I apparently hit refresh too often and it locked me out for a couple of minutes. When I came back on, I got a message that they were sold out. I added several other items to my cart but when I went to check out all those items were sold out by the time the cart page loaded. I guess you had to complete the entire check out process. I would have hoped once something was in your cart, it would give you a couple of minutes to complete the checkout.

Lotrek's didn't sell out quite as fast, at least in the last couple ones I've been a part of.

My gripe is the utter speed in which it sold out. I've heard that people set up macros or browser programs of some sort and just click away as soon as a sale starts or even program it to the point it does it automatically when the magic time starts.

Maybe someone can get me one of these so I have a chance. I'm tired of buying on ebay for ridiculous prices.

No, on many sites you have to physically check out, Anyone WW is the same way, a lot of them are.

I also let a couple kickstarters go so that my credit card would have room for these Minty beauties. Now burned multiple times. I don't normally contribute on these forums but I gotta vent my frustration somewhere. My computer definitely took the brunt of my profusely curse-laced screaming at 12:03 when everything sold out.

[Timmargh]

[...] Also, those Muertos decks were priced very well. I had to pay much more than that for a couple of them to complete the set years ago.

Me, too. I have the Love, Sun, and Celebration decks and they cost me around $35 each.

I tried to go for the Hana set and the Anubis/Osiris gilded set but was way too slow (as was on my phone having dinner with a mate). Oh well... Can’t get everything, I suppose. On to Jocu’s decks next week.

I hear ya, man. first time here too.
I thought if you were quick enough to put it in your cart.
you had secured it.
I was so happy when i saw my choice go to my cart.
the first and second time, i tried to check out.
both times ending sold out!
Geeze!

Oh, I must congratulate those that were successful

I have to admit I'd probably be singing a different tune if I had come out with absolutely nothing. I didn't get half of what I wanted but at least I scored some loot to console myself with and saved $50-$75. Coming out empty handed stings.

[hsbc]

I had actually considered picking up more than one item, but decided against it so I could check out ASAP

Same here. I'm so bummed that I couldn't get a Hana Signature edition pair

[canogie]

It would have been nice if he could have opened up some decks for backers of his latest kickstarter projects

[TheGentlemanWake]

Does anyone have a direct communication line to Steve. Trying to get ahold of him.

[canogie]

info@steveminty.com

has responded in the past in a reasonable timeframe

I'm sorry, but should I be irrationally excited and jump to a completely baseless conclusion that you are going to collaborate with Steve in the near-future? Or does he owe you like 10 bucks still and this is not an exciting development? I need an answer.

[KT52]

Anyone here managed to grab the Hana signature?

[chicken_ql]

Does anyone know who is the printing company for Steve Minty for ascension?

[Magic Tapp]

If the printer is going to be the same as for his thorns and roses deck, it is USPCC.

Has anyone that purchased a deck from the secret sale received a tracking number or email about shipping? Thanks

I got a confirmation email after placing my order and nothing since. Not very worried yet though, for a few reasons. Steve Minty's site says he ships every Saturday, and this was easter weekend. As well, he may have been flooded with orders last week, and Ascension is ending, so he may have his plate full.

Also for anyone interested, the Z deck is now in stock in the regular store, I'm pretty sure it was not available in the store the last few months.

[KT52]

I messaged Steve Minty today and he said he will be shipping later this week

It was, but he didn't list it in the main store page. You had to search for Z deck in the search bar in order to find it.

Got an email today with confirmation and tracking. Another great mail day on the horizon!

Woohoo! What did you manage to order?

On a completely unrelated note, what's your address and what time do you usually leave for work?

[Romeril]

Is anybody else still waiting for a shipping notification for a purchase from the secret sale?

[hsbc]

Me! I haven't gotten anything but my original order confirmation

Ok he must still be trying to get through them then. I placed two separate orders and have already received one of them but no shipping notice yet for the second one.

[brownsl]

I was not able to get anything from the Secret Sale, except for the discount items, everything else went way too quick. But, I did place two orders that day and got them both today.

[Pablo393]

I am still waiting on a shipping confirmation. Patiently though.

[KT52]

I ended up ordering something else after the secret sale and got a tracking number for that but not for the secret sale yet. Hopefully soon!
