Not art this time

E3 next week. And it's a Zelda year. PREPARE YOUR BOMB SHELTERS.

In other news, I've been pining after the Chinese Tarot by Jui Guoliang for a long time - not as a deck I want to read with but because the correlations with Chinese cultural elements look to be neat and decently-done (if not necessarily accurate). But it's out of print and usually lists for anywhere from $100 to $1000. I happened to look at my Amazon wishlist on Sunday and there it was - a "Good" condition listing for $32.98! And it's already shipped out too :D I definitely plan to post a thorough review of its Chinesey-ness once I get it.

If all else fails I can always re-sell it for more than I paid. XP

Wow. Makes me wish I'd bought it back when Amazon still had it in stock. I've had it on my wishlist since 2001. o_O (Along with a bunch of other decks I added on a whim.)

D'oh, I never knew you wanted it or I could've snatched up the other "Acceptable" listing for under $40, or even the two $50 listings that lasted till Monday evening. Well, at least I'll post a thorough scanning/review once I get it?

No worries. Like I said, I added it on a whim, and was intrigued by the art, but I don't think I would ever have used it. And it's not like I don't have enough decks lying around unusued. ^^;; (Morgan Greer, Dragon, Arthurian, Herbal...)

To clarify: the "wish I'd bought it" was more along the lines of "so I could sell it now for big bucks". :P
