Has anyone read about the new limit to the Golds? For those of us how pre-order it's not a problem. We also get a
extreme level of complexity requiring the enthusiast to solve the puzzle and the algorithm. The unique algorithm is sent as as a separate document to the enthusiast as they register their puzzle.
I wonder what this will be like? I don't like math :(, but my wife might be able to crack it [yes my wife is smarter then I am] there I said it.

It's also not obvious that 250 of the 500 are reserved for the Collectors Edition (CE) sets. So, only 250 are available singly.

I dont think thats true. I think the Gold Extreme will be available AU00001-AU00500, plus CE_AU001-CE_AU250...750 in total. This is because if a guy like me buys the whole set and then buys the collectors edition, i'd still want the same numbers. So i'd get:
BU00020, GR00020, BR00020, AG00020, AU00020,
CE_BU020, CE_GR020, CE_BR020, CE_AG020, & CE_AU020;

otherwise what would be the point?

I think the CE owners that dont already have a set will be very far and few.

EDIT: Nevermind, I'm a moron and cant read (normally I would have deleted my retarted post, but I wanted to save those who think like me the trouble:

I wish it were just my imagination. Check this out:

'We are limiting these to just 250 sets Worldwide (containing half the REVOMAZE Extreme Gold's) while the other 250 REVOMAZE Extreme Gold's will be sold separatly making the total number of REVOMAZE Extreme Gold's to just 500.'

This is from the updated CE page at:

Edit: Ugh. Simultaneous post. What he said *points in two directions*.

I have a feeling he will be losing money on the Gold's manufacturing process ... :\

How do you mean? Not matching the demand or sear cost of production?

I think the new pre-order price was chosen so that he could cover costs and still make a little for the pocket. but for everyone that pre-pre-ordered, he's probably losing a little bit of green.

A single pound is a coin. I don't think there is a one pound note.

The paper notes are a variety of colours.
