Agreed.

Just send us a message through Kickstarter (our project page) and let us know how many decks you would like to add of the new color scheme. We will let you know the amount to add to your pledge. Thanks for your support!

Sorry for the delay Sharpie! Just trying to keep up with the pace of the project. Pricing is as follows for the new color scheme:


One deck $9
Two decks $8.50 each
Three - five decks $8.00 each
Six decks $7.50 each

It's also on our update page here: http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/124 ... eck/posts

Thanks!

Hey Evan - yeah, it's tough as a designer to create a second version of what you had originally considered complete. We came up with what we thought was the best 2nd color version possible from the original design. We felt it was a solid companion to the first edition.
Thanks for the compliments and support!

Excellent! Thanks for making it a tiered pricing system. Easy to add more than I should. :shock:
Last question: If I add up to a total of 12 decks (which is the limit, right?), will I receive a custom brick box as well?

Appreciate the response.

Thanks CBJ! And thanks to everyone here on the forum - a really great and supportive community. Now it's time to roll our sleeves up (again!) and tackle the second phase of the project. We are really excited to see the printed decks! We'll keep everyone updated step by step.

Given the success of their first 2 decks, I'm really looking forward to their 3rd! If they are as efficient with the shipping as they were the first time around, we should get these in no time with minimal delays. Congrats on another successful campaign!

Just received an update. The Uusi deck (bohemia) is ahead of schedule and may be shipped in time for Christmas. Not that I need the deck for Christmas but this is one Kickstarter deck I can't wait to get my hands on.

I've been extremely impressed how professionally they've handled their KickStarter campaigns... It sets the quality bar high for all the other KickStarter campaigns...

Unfortunately there was an error at printing and the decks have been sent back to USPCC. Update this morning from Kickstarter

"EVEN THE BEST LAID PLANS...
Update #13 · Dec. 15, 2012 · 3 comments
...can get derailed. We started receiving our decks yesterday and when we went to break open the first box we unfortunately discovered that there was a printing error on the Bohemia tuck boxes. The USPC had somehow forgotten to emboss our tuck boxes with the linen finish as we had designed and requested in our contract.

Although the deck itself looks amazing and is perfect in every way (see photos below), we were left with a very hard decision - accept the decks without the embossed linen finish on the tuck box so we could ship out to you ahead of schedule and in time for Christmas, or stick to our original design intent and have the USPC reprint the decks as we intended them. After a lot of careful consideration we chose to reprint the decks as we feel very strongly that the entire deck should be produced as it was originally intended with no compromise on the design.

In defense of USPC, this is a crazy time of year for them. Despite a very full last quarter print schedule, they pushed hard to get our decks printed ahead of schedule as they were as excited as we were to see this deck made. Their post production unit has frequently commented on how much they love the artwork for Uusi's decks. No one at USPC wanted anything but the best possible deck that could be produced. They were deeply disappointed about the mistake that they had made and are immediately working to remedy it. Unfortunately, there is always the possibility for mistakes to happen in production. The best companies stand behind their product and make sure it is done right. USPC is one of those companies.

That being said, here is a look at the deck itself that we have in hand and will be in your hands - with the linen finish tuck - starting in mid to late January. Not as ahead of schedule as we had hoped and wanted for you, but still within our original project delivery date. We will keep you up to date on the exact delivery of the reprint as soon as we get a date from USPC.

We wish you all the best for the holidays and are looking forward to sending Bohemia your way in the New Year!

Oh well, I was looking forward to having these by Christmas. I thought it would be cool to do some card tricks for my guests with my new Uusi decks. I would guess we will be having these perhaps mid-January. Mike from BMP, will you be selling these. I want to give some away at my magic club and I did not order enough. You owe me a few anyway as you are always picking on me :cry:

Was just coming to post this (ordered 2 of each);
"You can find these Bohemia decks we saved from the USPC shredder, (represented by Bumble above), on our website at uusi.us. Should you decide to purchase one of these rare decks, please note in the "comment" box at checkout that you would like one of the "misprinted" decks. Here is an exact count of what we were able to save from "Bumble":

238 Limited Edition Red /seals.
238 Limited Edition Red / without seals.
476 Blue Edition Decks / without seals."
The difference between these and the final shipping product is that the tuck box will be linen.

Same here. Already have a brick coming - why pay for a box made of the wrong material? Although, it does make me wish I was closer to USPCC, or more to the point, their dumpsters.

Well, Uusi printed 5000 decks of each color (which would prompt T11, D&D, E, and BC to proclaim them "rare"), but there are less than 500 error decks of each color (huge props for the full disclosure and transparency) which would make them significantly more rare.

If this was T11, they would be hyping the crap out of these, showing pictures of mountains of shredded decks and claiming they risked life and limb to "rescue" a mere "handful" of these, making these the "rarest" deck in T11 history and will only distribute these in future crash-inducing promotions. If this was BC, they would say these were only for select employees, but out the the goodness of their hearts, they will be more than happy to sell them.....for $49.99 per deck. If this was E, they would offer one to be included in their exclusive membership package, and then a month later when they see that no one is signing up for membership, they'll include 2 decks per membership....

I picked up 2 original decks and 2 blue decks because I feel they are beatiful decks to begin with, and the novelty of this being a rare error deck drew me to them as well.
