A bit of a downer...

11/24/2011

 
Hi everyone!

It pains me to share this information with you all. Needless to say, I'm the one most upset and disappointed about this. 

Today, USPCC has informed us about their delay in producing the Mana deck. As it turns out, they were not satisfied with the quality of the print and said that it did not meet their standards and our approved proofing. So they are now starting from scratch hoping to fix this problem. That means USPCC will not deliver as promised for November 28. Instead, they are trying to meet a deadline of December 13 or sooner, which pushes our release date into early next year (Jan/Feb). *sigh*

I know many of you have been waiting for this deck to come out and I want to apologize for this delay, even though it's completely out of my hands right now. Even I'm getting a little anxious! 

The only thing assuring me right now is that USPCC is working hard to make it right and to make sure that the product they deliver is nothing less than perfect and of the highest quality. And despite they're delay, I have to thank USPCC for their dedication to their quality of product.

I can't say this enough - I'm am truly sorry for the delay and I very much appreciate your patience! Thank you all for your support!

Sincerely,
Erik Mana

No worries Erik! There's positive and negative side to it. Negative side is that it's delayed. The positive side is that people would have saved up enough money to buy more mana decks! Seeing that there are so many decks coming out, and Black friday, holiday contest etc....
Patience is a virtue, good things are worth waiting=)

cheers,
Chinwei.
