Hello everyone My 4th deck will soon be launching on Kickstarter Tuesday Sep 5th at 11 am MST Arizona. I have been working hard on this deck for a long while now. Phonograph 5 will be printed by EPCC the tuck box will be made from Expert's exclusive waterproof synthetic paper. The cards will be printed on Expert’s Classic stock. 2500 Decks will be printed with the red card back. I will update you here when I launch. Thanks Landry

These are looking really good, can't wait.

I really like the courts.

I'm all over this action.

I see the back has improved from the prototype I received.

Love it. Why are you printing 2500 decks though? Seems quite a large number. Anyway, in it if shipping is cheap to Finland. If not, I'm sure I can count to Sherman to get me a deck through a detour from the States.

My first deck printed by LPCC was only 1,000 and it sold out I wanted to print more of this deck I hope it will be popular and I was thinking of doing a limited version of 1,000 later on.

Heya Landry,
I have to say also that your courts are the best .... I love 'em !
They are extremely efficient and original, and present so well that you might have to copyright them, seriously.
Get your name on them, soonest.
Best of luck on launch ....

The act of creating them means they are copyrighted.

YeeOww ....
Cool, thanks for that.
Landry's take on the Goodalls is pretty special, he has them on his creators drafting board so that is all good too.
They're his now.

So, I just noticed this: Landry is in Arizona, which is currently not observing Daylight Savings Time, which means that 11am MST is the same as 11am Pacific (Daylight) Time.

*insert my usual time zone tirade here*

*followed by someone telling me how easy it is, all I had to do was know which district in Kuala Lumpur the creator was based out of, then make sure to know that during odd numbered years that district follows 15 minute behind Daylight Savings rules, enter that all into an online converter, and bingo, I'd know exactly what time a launch is occurring*

We are now officially live! https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/14 ... ying-cards" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Shipping makes me hesitate which is becoming a more and more common issue unfortunately. Got an early bird tho!

Updated original post to include KS info.

Good luck, Landry!

Glad you were able to get the early bird. I will be using Gamblers to do my shipping I know shipping prices are high they went up again after my last deck got funded. I tried to get the shipping as reasonable as I could.

$5 to ship 1 deck from the US to the US... A bit pricey

Yeah, shipping is out of whack here. But there is a lot to like about this deck. I love the courts and the colors, the custom pips, and the back design is nice as well, we should get interesting fans and spreads from them. I even think the tuck box is OK, even thought I never thought LPCC's plastic tuck was all that. What I don't get is why Landry doesn't do a blue back version as well. On the whole, I definitely hope this funds.

I would like to ask about shipping I noticed that most projects have free US shipping I thought about doing that but then the deck price would probably have to come up some. I did get my shipping quote from Gamblers so it includes handling and it cost a lot to send the decks from the factory to the USA. This deck is being printed by EPCC not LPCC this time. The deck will use the same material and card stock as the Chameleons by Asi Wind a very nice deck I think. As far as doing a second color back I was originally thinking of doing the purple but I would go with a vote for purple or blue. I did not include it into the campaign because getting one deck to fund is hard but I have it on the list for a stretch goal. I just wanted to see how we do first and then go from there. Thanks for the questions and comments and support It's much appreciated.

I personally think it's a great idea to try and fund one deck then go from there. Too many people try to fund 2+ decks nowadays and fail. However, if you do print two decks red and blue backs go together like PB&J and should be everybody's wormhole. I was so close to pledging for this deck but the shipping price is what kept me away. As a designer I know you have to make a profit so I don't know what can be done here but I like these and I hope they fund regardless.

Well we did not make it this time. Thanks for the support I really appreciate it. I am working on a relaunch and I will be offering free US shipping this time. I know some were not happy that the shipping was high. I also am going to take a look at other ideas for the tuck box I'm not sure if I really like it that much. Stay tuned for more info.
