Hi There, just curious to know if you have ever really fallen in love with a deck online, I mean REALLY felt like it was THE ONE. Only to find that once you had it in your grubby little mitts that you did not connect with it at all?
Yesterday I went to a metaphysical store and finally had a good rummage through a couple of decks on the top of my wish list that I just HAD to have. I HATED all of them. I mean, a real 'ugh, hell no' kind of reaction. I was really surprised.
These included the Wildwood, the Morgan Greer and the New Palladini. I must be more discerning that I realised.
Instead, I walked out with a deck I originally wasn't sure I was going to like. Having seen images online, I thought the artwork was great (and I really love dark and creepy stuff) but wasn't sure I'd really connect with it and use it. The box was sealed and there were no open copies of it to look through but I opted for the Borderless Deviant Moon. And oh boy, do I love this deck. I have been getting stuck in with it today and I am ever so happy with it.
Just goes to show that sometimes you really don't know how you'll feel about a deck until you both come face to face. Some of the things that put me off the decks were card stock, size, borders and of course, the artwork itself. But I was so SURE that I would love these decks before I saw them.
What have been your biggest disappointments? The decks you were mega excited about getting and then felt sad/let down by?
