So I went out today to go deck hunting. I set out to find olympic cards and Liu Chen's Spar and what nots. To no avail. But instead I found these cuties. :D
I dunno if I should place separate threads for them but they're all just novelty decks so yeah.
I was expecting them to be really crappy but they are not bad at all. Fans nicely for now...  but its really cheap.

only 10 Chinese RMB

They're like tourist trap decks without the tourist trap!


They look nice in a fan, I guess.


I love the spelling errors on the Paris deck: "The wonderful encunter in romanitc Paris."  Ah, love...  :))

I like the look of the deck. I believe the decks look wonderful in fans. After a while, how is it holding up? Novelty decks, such as those, come with some kind of plastic finish, right?

These look pretty cool in fans! The backs are funny to me :P They look like they are a bit clumpy, but what would you expect from novelty decks?

Ahah yeah I saw that too! :P Its some that you see frequently here in Beijing. LoL! Misprints, mis spelling and weird transliterated terms. LOL

@KPopFever and @nathan - I haven't gotten the chance to really use them but I will start trying to practice with them and tell you how they hold up to the high demands of cardistry practicing(s)
