Sidenote: I'm not quite sure what the last question is about. Personalization? Contact info?
Yes, every item can be personalized (if you want) you will be able to put your initials, choose the pattern to be burned on the box, the fabric for the bag... at least a reasonable choice :)

Will the collector's editions be the same deck in a different (bag/box) package or will they be different in some other way?

oh yes, thank you...

Everything else reads well.
Ok! It will be 20 each.

The same, but it can be signed. It's part of the personalization process.

So we don't submit our information yet? And what's the maximum number of characters for personalization on the box?

You should clarify the personalization part. Maybe put in some examples or choices.

It's something we will define later together.. and the lenght depends on the box, or depends on where you want that personalization. But let's say initials, numbers, dates.. not sentences. I will state something about it, thank you.

The poll will be cleared from the current entries and reopened at the right time

What would you like to see as stretch goals? Funding is a foregone conclusion at this point, less than $900 last I looked.

First time deck artists have to fight right now, the market is flooded with lots of junk. I can't for the life of me figure out how or why some of it funds, but many are not crowd funded at all, they are pre-sales of things already being printed.

We used to call that hamburger helper, but at least we're not seeing a lot of deckicide. ;)

I believe 10k is very doable stretch goal. If the gold deck isn't reached, would you consider another campaign later for it?

I don't think so.. we have so many projects in the WIP stage that creating a V2 campaign is not likely to happen.. ;)

We decided the first stretch goal: UV Spot Ink, it's what we need to enhance the red parts of the tuck case. Any other option was not optimal or not 100% aligned with the style. You can find here some renderings

Well another production issue from China and another delay. EPCC and LPCC are becoming somewhat unreliable. This time they missed 2 cards from the deck.

Got mine today. Overall, very nice, even with the missing cards. :?
The faces are a bit darker (the smoke is a bit much) than I would have wished for.
But the fan is superb.
