This deck arrived and it is in incredible shape indeed - box, gilding and original instructions included - going to have to get some good pics of these when the chance arises

Elaine Lewis - Sherlock Holmes - on the way by no small effort…

I have used the minne.com site for his decks using the worldshopping service prior to zenmarket. Went smoothly.

new deck on the way…

They were saying they had a good experience with room52 that childhood did not match.

I do expect to get in as many several as he can manage - I’ll add everyone to the list in the order they appeared here and we will cross our fingers for a full supply

Will need to see them in the flesh to judge what the price would be…

I have managed to reduce Collatz travel through odd values to this. here we will trace paths such as 13,3,5,1 - showing the odd values from 13 to 1 with the addition of the odd value 3, which we passed through when we pass through even value 10 on the way to 5 in collatz, as 3 *3+1=10 and (10-1)/3 =...

Nice - I have been hesitant to get any of those - lots of nice ones hiding out on zen and I have a bit of a self control problem

Welcome aboard - always nice the see a glad wagon pull into town.

Not sure if he wants the publicity - I will PM you the name

From the impression I get he is not selling them to me, he is sending them promo style

He is going to dig up as many as he can - he says it might be as many as 5 or 6 decks if we are lucky - feel free to hop on the end of the line and join the finger crossing gang

Scored the Heroku! Only took 18 hours ;) He says he can send in late June - inquired about copy for you - awaiting response, noting that you may have already found him ;) Didn’t see hsbc post - dang - now I guess I have to ask for a third… I shot him another email asking “how many can you sell” just...

Heroku/Salesforce did more than just dip a toe in…

Apparently these were handed out at a sales conference around five years ago. Good luck finding any! https://www.heroku.com/hanafuda I am working my way through - talked to the artist, who only has a single deck she will not part with, threw me the name of a person on (heading?) the team that made ...

The time to buy it is when you see it

I still can’t believe I only got one set of dice - don’t think I should believe that will be the end of it…

Almost forgot this one from Amazon a few days back - I like the colors a bunch - don’t get all of these decks, as so many are standard other than the jokers - but a decent color scheme is all it takes sometimes… In this case the art is also non-standard and has a nice old style The company that prin...

and another… Two versions, I grabbed a pair of each using zenmarket: Carta De Flor IMG_1259.png https://www.japandaisuki.co.nz/japanfiesta/chex23/ex23_culture/brownies IMG_1258.jpeg Standard: https://brownieshop.official.ec/items/80842965 Deluxe: https://brownieshop.official.ec/items/80843020 IMG_12...

and while the pixel hanafuda left me flat, the Nintendo 8bit hanafuda by Tengudo is on my hunt list - a new release that sold out before I knew it existed…

I would disagree - I have all sorts (pretty literally) and this is a nishiki-like style that I appreciate quite a bit. They are also hand wrapped: IMG_1252.jpeg A webpage giving award on the design, highlighting its finer points: https://suminagame.com/2019/11/27/choboku-037/ IMG_1261.jpeg =========...

Knowing them, I think you will get that deck if you wait for it

I double dipped…

I see one on ebay with pictures for classic but title for cute - shot them a message to see if perhaps its a classic for you…

Now tell me, if AI can do this? As a fan of Elaine Lewis and Jack Penny - AI can try to “outdo” them all it wants - it will never do what they do or be who they are. At best its Aquarius.

Today appears to be your lucky day . PM me

Am I out of contention G - I just bought one from Henry in the hour between your post and mine :o That’s a tough one - it’s meant for someone without, and for you to be without would require a cancelation of an order from socal - possibly causing him to not make a rent payment, kids and wife out on...

IMG_1154.jpeg What show are you waiting for? Is it insulting to give my opinion that the prices are high and then give a couple examples of why that might be? I don't want to cause an uprise. Is it not possible to say something is overpriced without it leading to arguments? I was just super curious...
