I'm gonna sell off my brick way cheaper than others on eBay as soon as I get it. I'll post a link here once I list it.

Just got mine in the mail. Does anyone else's deck come out of order? Like shuffled? And also fan like crap?  :-\
This deck comes in a certain stack. Not the normal order that you usually get. Also, mine fanned like crap at first. But after breaking it in, it fans beautifully.


Yeah I've worked them in for about 2 hours now and they've gotten a little better..

Playing Card Plethora / Black Crown Deck?

My latest impulse purchase of mine. Was it smart to spend 30 bucks on it? I think there are only 3,000 being made?

285
That's epic! If I had an extra grand laying around, and airfare... I'd jump on that asap!

Just took a quick pic of some of my collection. I got these at Target a few years ago.. Red and black ( my fav colors ) and it's suede. Really nice and fits the decks perfectly, I was surprised! i have another box too, and have about 20 decks on the way.. It fits about 3-4 decks down and 4 on each side. 2 Layers.

Thanks for the warm welcome guys, I can tell I'll love it here  ;D

And to answer Moone's question - No tutorial, i did look at a video or two on Rick Smith Jr and watched how he threw. Also my friend attempting the world record taught me how to throw better. Let me know if you need a pointer or two. And definitely get the Bicycles to practice. One you get good at it the Bicycle Prestige fly amazing, or get the plastic ACE playing cards for much less.

What's up guys! Name's Derek, if you couldn't tell by my username I so ingeniously created..


A little about myself - I used to be into magic like crazy about 4 years ago. Did a few shows with my buddy and then dropped out. I followed another one of my passions - cars. Oh and photography. You can check out my site here as a side note - www.AFocusPhotography.com. ANYWHO, I've been doing that for years now and just recently got back into magic, and most importantly - cards. I have a collection of like 50 decks now, also have a friend who is attempting to beat Rick Smith Jr's throwing card record this December 28th. He really got me back into cards. Originally throwing them - I can throw about 150+ feet. Now i'm back into learning cuts, flourishes, and collecting! Great to be here, plan on being active.  :D


CLIFF NOTES - I was into magic, then lost interest, now back into collecting cards. Nice to meet you guys!
