Like so many others, it was Google for me. I'm starting to drop a scary amount of money on decks (well, not compared to what I can tell SOME of you guys spend, but disposable income is scarce in my household!). I collected coins for 30 years, so I know the importance of a good "insider" forum. Found 52PlusJoker through Google, joined, and here I am. You folks are a goldmine!

I'm very glad to hear that.  We strive to be a valuable resource to the community of playing card collectors.  Don't be afraid to ask questions - how else will you get answers?  :))  Just don't spend the rent money on that shiny new pack, 'cause you can't live in a tuck box, especially with over 50 roommates...

I'm not exactly sure since it was a few months ago but maybe through the 52+J website or through google as I was researching playing cards.

How do you know Lee?  I met him a few years ago in Toronto.  He's a big help around here and with CARD CULTURE Magazine.

I met Lee thru his website and we have been emailing back and forth the last few days about my likes and dislikes. He is a pretty awesome fella.

I was introduced to PCF by Lee Asher. We've been friends since the mid 1990's in Vegas. We've torn up and thrown away more Jerry's Nuggets than most people will ever see. I'm not proud of that, but it's true. It's cool to see the boom in collecting and happy to be in at this time.

I decided to join this forum after I joined 52 Plus Joker. But I think I had stumbled upon it once or twice when googling various playing cards.

Hi everyone!   I just recently found your forum through an article in the Society of American Magicians magazine. Great article!  I'm now registered and looking forward to growing with the group and of course, my collection.  Tommy

I just searched for, "playing card collectors forum" on Google, to see if there were any groups of collectors. This site was the first to come up, and I'm glad it did.

I actually came across your forum when pledging to the 'Right of Kings' game project on Kickstarter. I have my own animated card game project going on Kickstarter right now, so it seemed like a great place to hang out and learn what what others are doing.  :)
