I really could give two F*@#$ about his legal troubles. I however do care about the money that this clown took from me.  I have given him ample opportunity to issue a refund.  Thus, I have decided to move forward filing a report with the FBI, as was suggested to me by a friend who practices law.  The FBI currently handles internet fraud.  I have requested a refund and if he or his cohorts don't understand the gravity of this situation, then so be it.  I appreciate everyone's opinions; however, don't defend him.  He is a big boy sitting on tens of thousands of dollars of other people's money and I am certainly not helping with his legal aid fund. Please PM me if you would like to be included in the complaint and have the opportunity to get your money returned. I need your legal name, address, and the amount of money pledged and by which method (visa, mc, amex...).  Thanks, Jonathan

I have posted many modern and vintage decks on ebay... If there is any interest, I would be glad to pull any decks and sell direct if the price is right... Although I am not looking to trade at the moment, prices can be negotiable if I know the cards are going to a good home... Feel free to message me an offer if you are looking for any of these decks for your collection... Thanks, J.

I am considering selling a considerable amount of single Vintage Bicycle Playing Cards... Various Backs... Does anyone here have interest in such cards, if so please post or message me... I will be glad to post photos if anyone is interested... Thanks, J.

It's been a while, and I've been a bit busy, but am I missing something here?  Please let me know if I'm the only one who sees this as a completely ridiculous listing.... This was listed by Dealing Dueces as a Rare & Vintage Cupid Back Deck of Cards with Wooden Box and is already up to $75?  It looks to me like the reprint from a few years ago by 52andJokers (I think) that you can still pickup for around $5.00... They re-wrapped it in cellophane and then put it in a wooden box and there are eight bids up to $75... Again, please let me know if I'm missing something, but it looks like a completely fraudulent listing... There was no such vintage deck of Cupid Backs ever printed in Gold... In fact the deck looks rather modern and so is everyone excited to pay $70+ for a wooden box???

Edit: Here's the listing http://www.ebay.com/itm/271079888796

        Again, pardon me if I am incorrect, but aren't these the cards here at less than $4 per deck? http://www.ebay.com/itm/2-DECKS-Bicycle-Cupid-Back-gold-playing-cards-/300464251523?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item45f510a283

Not sure if you all saw these postings, but there are three absolutely amazing and rare Vintage Decks available...

There's nothing officially for sale yet, so I guess this would be the right place to post this question...  Since we have such seasoned collectors who belong to this forum, I have a question for you all and would appreciate if you would answer... I will be selling off a portion of my collection (mainly newer, more modern decks)... I have noticed on eBay that people seem to be selling more than ever in groups - for example; 1 LTD, 1 Gold Arcane, 1 Charity Water... etc... I think that there is such an over saturation in the USPC collectible playing card market right now and that people are spending in abundance trying to pick up everything coming out that they may not have the funds to throw down for a large group of decks...

1. Do you feel that you enjoy purchasing more in groups rather than purchasing individual decks? 
2. What do you all think, and are there any decks in particular that people want and are willing to pay decent $ for right now?

Thanks, J.

I recently acquired these Rare Vintage Aviator Playing Cards as a set... They are Stamp Sealed, but with an extremely rare U.S. Playing Card Co. Stamp... It was explained to me (whether true or not, I have yet to verify) that following the taxation on playing cards, and before switching to a sticker style seal, these stamps were used to seal decks... I have never come across this style stamp before and I am offering these for sale or trade in the shop, but still thought that some of you may like to see some pics of these rare and unique decks... Enjoy...

On a happier note (happier than the White Monarch debacle)... I was able to finally secure a deck of playing cards that I've been looking for for over a year with no success until now... Fifteen year old Apple Macintosh Playing Cards... Having had Macs since the first 128K box right up till my current Lion, Macintosh has always held a place in my heart, and if you feel the same way and remember the icons from years past then maybe you will also feel good about these playing cards... Enjoy the pics...

I'm looking to unload a brick of cards I picked up in hopes they were vintage decks... The seller couldn't offer me any information, so I took a chance... Well, I didn't strike gold, but struck 12 decks of Ohio Bee Playing Cards... $3 per deck plus whatever shipping costs... Let me know... Thanks, J.

This is a special sale for Forum Members Only... I have a few extra decks of Bicycle New Era Playing Cards... They are Brand New and they are Awesome!!! $29 shipped anywhere in the U.S.  Please contact me if you are interested... Thanks, J.

Thanks to a very honorable collector that frequents the posts, I have been able to secure another long sought after set of cards... The Bicycle Cupid Test Decks... Apparently the USPCC was considering changing the standard Bicycle box to the following design, but they apparently did not go through with the changes, making this an extremely rare find...  Just a note: I am considering letting go of the Jumbo Face Cupid Test Decks (both Red & Blue) if anyone is interested... PM me...

I just purchased this interesting Bee Deck... I think that it's cool and I'm looking for a blue one as well...

Edit:  I thought I'd post some pictures of a fantastic new Vintage Deck I just picked up... I was told the deck is from the early eighties and is a variation of the Standard Back... Cambric Bee... Love These Decks... Anyone interested - I have an extra one or two...

Check It out...
