Hey Guys,
I have about 5 streamline decks and I noticed on all of them that the cards are tapered like in a stripper deck, does anyone else with these decks notice this?
People say nothing's impossible, but I do nothing everyday.

Today I found something that reminded me of you. But don't worry I flushed and everything went back to normal.

Did you buy all of them at the same time? It might be specific to the print run or something... Streamline aren't marketed to magicians, there would be no reason for them to be tapered.
Grin like a Cheshire cat, and remember: we're all mad here.

  • Pick a card, any card...no, not THAT card!

I'd bet it has more to do with the lower "Q" level that Streamlines are made at - I'd bet the quality control is more like Q3 or Q4, with 4 being lowest and 1 highest.  They're cheap decks, sold for a buck a pack in pharmacies and dollar stores.  As much as I like them, don't expect the highest quality levels from such a cheap deck.
