I jet found this site and I think it's really good.
Take a look.

http://www.custom-playing-card.com/buyers-guide.html

The downside is that it's kinda old, so decks' price are not according to market price, and new decks are not there.

Mmm interesting find.
Some good information for references, but definitely won't help much if you're looking for the market price of some decks.

It'd be nice for someone (maybe Don, CBJ, digipunk, etc.) could put together a site like this! Update new decks every now and then, information about their stock and finishes, then lastly maybe a fair price on them. Hard work, but certainly something that many would love to see and refer to daily.

I think price aren't needed to be included cause it changes all the time.
But stock/finish/durability rates are really great idea.

You're right. I take that back.
Not only does it change all the time, a database like that would probably kill off too many business minded resellers. :P

Lol Alex is mocking the writer of that blog. There's an actual building brick in the first picture at the top. He's trying to be funny. >.<

As a buyer's guide I'd rather it was more factual than opinion based with the ratings of how each deck performs for various moves. Just a picture, name, some specifications, where to find it (if available), maybe some history, and maybe some idea of price (if consistent). Such a thing would be invaluable, I think.
Oh, Lawd!

Actually we do have a site like that.

http://playingcards.wikidot.com/

Nowhere near complete, but it's a good start. Kudos to MagikFingerz on UC (I'm not sure what's his name here on Discourse..or if he's here at all)

This site is great too. It's really help me to find what decks I'm missing.
But it doesn't have comparison of stock/finish btw decks.
