Did this deck ever get made?
Yes and no. ALLEGEDLY the creator had a breakdown of some kind; he did post that he had all the tarot decks made (there are a lot of other things in the same campaign) but he was waiting for boxes; anyone prepared to have one with no box (I was one who said yes) would get them right away... Nope.
And so on. In theory we shall still get hem. I await being pleasantly surprised.
Wow, $116K and no rewards? Brutal.
I hope someone more directly involved is following up on this situation. Please let us know about any updates. I'm very curious if you can take 116k for a crowdfunding project and not deliver it without consequence.
I'm directly involved - I am a backer - and there IS nothing to report except the increasingly angry posts about it. Several of us have reported the project to try to get our money back - nothing happens.The comments have been pretty active since the launch, and the theme has been a gradual move from "this is understandable and unfortunate and we wish you all the best as you fulfill this to "you stole our money." As far as real updates there has only been:

I generally assume Kickstarter projects will be delivered late but it's really, really frustrating when they seem to have been outright abandoned like this one (and a few others). At some point all the money raised is gone and you are left with the designer promising to get you your deck with their own funds (guess how often that pans out).
