I am looking to buy a new deck of the Kris Hadar Marseilles tarot. Kris Hadar is from Canada. I am in the U.S. and am trying to find a source in either the U.S. or Canada. Does anybody know where I can buy this deck? OM

He's Canadian?!? BONUS!!! Yes...if anyone knows of a Canadian Source, please do tell!

Possibly your best bet would be to contact the editors themselves. They must have a list of the places that have ordered the decks. Or you may be able to order directly from them. Goodness, they are really Quebecans, I see. No e-mail for them, but courriel. And no telefax, but telecopieur. :D MORTAGNE (ÉDITIONS DE) Fondation : 1978 C.P. 116 Boucherville (Québec) J4B 5E6 Téléphone : (450) 641-2387 Ligne directe : (514) 990-5786 (Montréal) Télécopieur : (450) 655-6092 Courriel : edm@editionsdemortagne.qc.ca Site internet : http://www.editionsdemortagne.qc.ca

So...does anybody speak Francais? Could someone fashion a letter to them? Maybe if we pool our resources here, we could get a discount on a pallet, or even a truckload order?

My research has finally yielded some fruit. Here is a source for the Hadar deck in the UK. As you can see, the deck is currently out of stock, but more is expected. I am pasting the entire response so you may have to recalculate the shipping charges for wherever you are. I'm still looking for a source closer to home for those of us in the U.S. "Dear Sir, Thank you for your enquiry. We are delighted to accept orders from the USA.

I got some new information about the Hadar deck, in case anybody can use it. However, this applies to the deck that just went out of print, so I'm not sure if the new one will have a different ISBN or not. I got this information from the Tarot Canada... Author Hadar, Kris Titrate The true tarot of Marseilles/restored by Kris Hadar Publication [ boucherville ]: Editions of Mortagne, [ 1996 ] Description 1 assembly (1 booklet (62 p.), 80 charts): ill. in coul. 13 X 7 X 4 cm Notes Titrate assembly ISBN 2-89074-819-7 Subject Tarot Topic Occultism and esotericism Typology French author published in Quebec Source QC - BNQ Dimension BF/1879/T3H332/1996

Yes, got an email today from the publisher of this deck (Canada) and she told me it will be available soon ("in a few weeks") and that I could place a credit card order with her for it. I am in the U.S. In case others are interested, the email address is: Éditions_de_Mortagne" edm@editionsdemortagne.qc.ca The woman I heard from is Caroline and is more comfortable with French than English, though she did a fine job with my letter (in English.) Tres Bon! Ophiel

Oh, I don't need a Hadar deck, but this is wonderful news!!! Now everyone on Aeclectic can go and order one. :D

Did anyone order the Hadar? How did it go? And you may snicker, but I actually like the more modest Devil and am exploring the Hadar site in French that accompanies JMD's review...thanks for bumping the review up. Mari H.

Icestorm	07 Mar 2003
Im pretty sure that JMD has this deck doesnt he? (I think he has EVERY marseille deck ever created) Maybe he can tell you where to get it in USA, im surprised that its been so complicated to track it down.

Diana	07 Mar 2003
This deck (in my opinion one of the finest Marseilles decks to be had) is absolutely unavailable. I have searched and searched, because I have quite a few friends who are desperately looking for one. I have been assured that it will be re-edited in the spring. If anyone hears anything definite, please can they post here so pre-ordering can be done? In the meantime, for those who speak good enough French, Kris Hadar's web-site is well worth a visit (or two or three or four).

jmd	08 Mar 2003
...just for the record, I have only too few Marseille decks - and the Hadar was sent to me from Switzerland courtesy of Diana (again thankyou).
