Who even cares about the rarity. I just don't get theory11's motivation behind these limited releases. Yeah its clever marketing, but I think they should just cut the crap and release the deck. As said before, everyone will win. Customers will be happy because they get the deck they wanted. Theory11 should be happy because they'll get a boatload of cash. They are saying now that they won't rlease them, but I'm willing to bet you quite a bit that they will someday.
Some people
do care about the rarity, though. I understand that you want the deck, as do I and many other people, but that's no excuse for ignoring the needs of those people.
But, like I said, an easy fix to that is making them slightly different and marking that they're second editions or whatever. That way, EVERYBODY wins, not just us (and theory11 with their "boatload of cash").
Also, I completely agree that they will release them at some point (with or without a change to them, however, I wouldn't hazard a guess at). E did something similar with the Black Ghost deck (although, you had to purchase quite a bit in order to get one), which is now for sale (slightly modified, to keep the rarity of the first editions in tact).
