Much as I like Patrick's work that's the last of his I shall buy until such time as he finds a UK distributor - postage and taxes almost doubled its already quite steep price. It's very nice, but.... Ooof. Yeah, better to find someone who can at a minimum carry a small stock to ship locally. 😕 I like this one fine--and can now trade/sell my original Trionfi--but I don't know that I'd pay double for it.
euripides Posted May 26, 2022 Posted May 26, 2022 My Forest of Enchantment has arrived! 🦋💫🦄 @RunningWild yes I was watching the tracking number lol. The even text messaged me that it would be delivered today. @Wyrdkiss I bought this deck based on your Deck of the Week readings 🙂 I'm totally delighted with it. It's in a lovely magnetic-closure box with a beautiful colour book. It's just gorgeous. I love that it's borderless - I feel borderless cards can work so well together to tell a story - an the artwork is so charming. I'm really needing a bit of magic in my life at the moment and someone with a name like 'Lunaea Weatherstone' will surely deliver! And you know the text is full of wisdom, too. It's really insightful. I got a little free gift of some crystals from the seller, too, which was super sweet.

I'm with you on this one. I'm still waiting on my deck but it seems the Etsy tracking stops working once the package is outside the US and I didn't get any tracking number to input anywhere else either. It's a mystery where it is now but most things eventually do show up. I'm guessing that's more Etsy's fault than Patrick's, but still a big inconvenience for those of us outside the US. Fingers crossed there could be a better solution for this in the future! I think I will enjoy the deck but it's a steep price to chance upon, and if I could get away with not paying double or possible more than double that's of course what I would prefer.
gregory Posted May 28, 2022 Posted May 28, 2022 Yes - tracking is pretty bad - Royal Mail tracking stops as soon as your u=item leaves the UK, which REALLY annoys me - what's the point of it ? You can pay VAST sums for "tracked and signed" but otherwise whenever I have tried they just say they can only tell you when it is delivered. So if it's lost - you have no way to know where !
Rachelcat Posted May 31, 2022 Posted May 31, 2022 My awaiting list is getting alarmingly large! So I must share with you!

And it's a great deck, I think you'll enjoy it. 🙂 Cosmic Cycles is available again; I'm trying to decide if I want it. I passed last time, unsure if I want to continue to pass.

legendaryelement Posted June 1, 2022 Posted June 1, 2022 I have received 2 books Tarot and Astrology The Pursuit of Destiny by Muriel Bruce Hasbrouck Astrology and the Inner Self by Ray Douglas … and The Dungeons & Dragons Tarot Deck *had to use a gold Sharpie to make a small symbol on the Minor Arcana suits; I wish they had included class/race of the depicted beings in the little “guidebook”
Eno Posted June 1, 2022 Posted June 1, 2022 My Dreamkeepers Tarot waited for me when I came back from work. The postman placed it in front of my door and fortunately nobody stole it 🙂
LoriaKai Posted June 3, 2022 Posted June 3, 2022 On the way... Black Violet Tarot - Cherry Blossom Edition Cat Tarot Light Seers Tarot The Urban Tarot
Niobium Posted June 3, 2022 Posted June 3, 2022 I told myself I wasn't going to order the Dreamy Moons Tarot but I'm such a sucker for a black deck with high contrast color and gold foil. (It's RWS, with two of the suits renamed but using the same imagery.) Not out until July, though.
Emilija Posted June 3, 2022 Posted June 3, 2022 I just received my Norse Tarot from Clive's Etsy shop. I am still awaiting some handmade Witches' Runes.🙂
legendaryelement Posted June 8, 2022 Posted June 8, 2022 Loving the possibilities here! Read the description & comments. The typo of XV for the Tower (8 of Shields) is minor, imho. https://www.drivethrucards.com/m/product/222858
gregory Posted June 8, 2022 Posted June 8, 2022 My Feline Rider is in the south of England, according to 17track, and still in China according to Royal Mail.
DanielJUK Posted June 8, 2022 Posted June 8, 2022 You guys enabled me 🤣. I've got the Tarot by Caro on the way
PathWalker Posted June 8, 2022 Posted June 8, 2022 (edited) Blue Deviant arrived - I don't buy very many decks these days, but this was always a "Yes!" for me, and I'm very happy to have it. Thanks to @BlueToy Edited June 9, 2022 by PathWalker
Page of Ghosts Posted June 10, 2022 Posted June 10, 2022 (edited) My Trionfi della Luna Illuatrated Pips Edition is finally here! I picked it up yesterday so it took a couple of weeks longer than the ridiculous etsy estimate. I had to pay a small fee, but nothing too bad. I'm overall very happy with it - the card stock is on the thinner side, flexible and shuffles very nicely 😁 I'm very excited to see how we get along. Edited June 10, 2022 by Page of Ghosts

OK and now it is on my sofa and also in China.... tracking is a bit of a con. Royal Mail will (from past experience) agree tomorrow that it was delivered today... But what a LOVELY deck - so CATTY ! I see Patrick has now brought out yet another colour variant of the Trionfi. Much as I like his art, it all looks rather desperate...

I would not go so far as to say that myself, but I admit I don't see much difference between one paradoxical edition and another, which I assume is what you're talking about. They all hurt my eyes even if I think the concept for the original paradoxical edition (the negative colours) is kinda cool.
gregory Posted June 12, 2022 Posted June 12, 2022 (edited) One I missed on kickstarter (no idea how !) but I harassed the artist and it;s now on printerstudio )- Anne of Green Gables: https://www.printerstudio.com/sell/designs/anne-of-green-gables-tarot-deck.html ETA but don't order it yet - there's a mistake. I'm emailing her ! Edited June 22, 2022 by gregory
Niobium Posted June 12, 2022 Posted June 12, 2022 Modernmagic.ru has another round of copies of Velga North's Forgotten Legends Tarot. This limited run doesn't have the gold foiling or gilt edges, and has had the color saturation improved. The box is also reportedly a studier build. They can accept payment via PayPal, though there's no telling how long it'll take for the deck to arrive. I've ordered one, as I was always hoping for an unfoiled reprint that didn't cover as much of her lovely art.
