The decks are made by USPCC, the brand behind Bicycle, Bee and Hoyle. I am having the cards printed on casino quality 'paper' with Bicycle's 'Magic Finish'.

The design is 95% finished, I just need to keep fine-tuning them to perfection. I'll keep everyone updated with the final art as we progress.

I would love to get them in your hands by New Years, but after learning about manufacturing times and delays, a more realistic time would be February/March.

----edit----
The date has been pushed back to early-April, I went back and forth with Bicycle to make sure I was getting you guys a perfect deck. The result of that is a slightly longer wait. I apologize for the delay, but I assure you I am doing this for the best! See update #15 for the current info.

Even if you move after the survey, I'll make sure I have the right address when attaching the labels before shipping.

USPCC has raises their minimum amount of decks needed to be purchased from between 2,500 and 5,000, I just need to be sure I am covered in case it is higher. I have already set aside money made from the Brimstone deck, but in order to make this financially possible we need to raise a bit more.

Again, learning from shipping the Brimstone decks I have fine-tuned the shipping costs for international buyers. (Some are actually cheaper!) Customs forms are over $5 each, and when shipping ONE DECK internationally I end up losing a buck! Shipping decks of cards is expensive due to their weight, a box of 144 decks weighs almost 40 pounds!

I sent out a survey on Feb 24th and 25th. Some people did not respond, I sent multiple updates to remind everyone. If you survey was not filed out, you will not be receiving your pledge reward. Send me a PM if this has happened to you.

Yes, I will be rounding up on the total number of decks pledged another 2,000 decks, this is for the simplicity of ordering through USPCC. Resellers will also be buying them to sell in their online shops too. After shipment of Kickstarter backers there will be a short supply left over that I will be selling on my webpage. MSRP is $9 for a deck plus shipping.
