While they haven't officially announced any new decks they have announced that tomorrow, Mar 8 at 10pm est they will be doing some releases to celebrate their 4th anniversary. Wow what an utter lack of promotion and advertising so far for this event I must say, not even anything on their FB.

Where did you even see this Vic? I didn't hear anything about it at all. And I quite like the guys at crown so try to keep tabs on their doings. Being in Australia I had USPS completely stuff up massively on a couple of (very large) orders from these guys and they are probably the best example of perfect customer service I have ever encountered. Renewed my faith in the "retail" industry.

Pretty ridiculous that have done no teasing or promoting for this whatsoever on their Facebook or Twitter. I'd be surprised if a lot of people even knew it was going on.

Indeed I did. I don't have any decks from them so this seemed like a good option to start with.

I can't justify spending $20 on the Black Sky Island decks. Closely resembles the Zen Pure Gold and Whispering Imps LEs that I already invested enough money on so....

It has custom faces though.

Sure is cheaper than the previous offer of free with $150 purchase.

That part is true though $20 plus shipping per deck is still not justifiable to me. I really have to be impressed with the cards to do that or it has to be a really high demand deck of cards. IMHO it's not.

I grabbed 2 bricks. Couldn't bring myself to spend $20 on the black SIAs though.

Is it me or does this seem like a going out of business clearance sale? I mean not one new item that I can tell. Selling everything cheap. Selling the limited deck instead of giving it away. Practically no promotion except on Instagram apparently. They always release a new deck.

Maybe they just need to liquidate some overstock to make room for new decks.

The bricks are limited to 100 with a max of 6 bricks per person.

Pretty darn good deal on that brick. Tempting indeed but I've sworn not to buy anything after a few drinks.

It´s a kick in the face for those who bought their released decks for a full price.
Especially the white ornates being sold so cheap - it hurts.
It´s of course a nice deal! Usually i would go for it to have some extra decks to use but so many decks being pumped out lately...saving pennies for the new releases instead....and to be honest i never thought that any TBC deck would gain any value over time.... that´s okay.Those decks meant to be used :)

Don't you think if they were going out of business they would either ramp the promotion right up - or just sell all the stock off to another retailer? (like BMP did). I don't have any info or knowledge either way, but I doubt it very much.

Cant for a million years believe that they were finishing up. Much more likely that they are using it to run out one or two of those decks that they only have so many of left. Probably just enough to build together those 100 bricks.

I imagine limiting it to 100 was also why no major promotion of it all. To avoid people going mental when 1000 turn up for 100 items.

If you needed these for a collection or used them its a no brainer. I would be very surprised if more deck designs were not being released soon and this is clearing space a little but It would be a waste to have not released something now with this.
