Don you could get an ad blocker and stream it online. I know to good sites. One for movies, one for shows.

I really like the back of the greyscale deck, but wish there was a bit more color on the faces.

I guess there is a market for these, but I am not in it. Congrats though.

I always enjoy having multiple colors, I use them for color changes in magic.

And yea I feel USPCC is on the downhill.

But for me its any deck that is in that category, they just dont appeal to me.

Come on paul, you should have waited to tell everyone else about this till after it launched. Only telling me so I could get the early birds. I should be free that morning if I don't forget. This is one deck I definataly will be buying.

Well Don, walmart was just an example. I am sure there are smaller chains they could sell them to, I know they sometimes have odd decks that you cant find at the others. I always look as not every walmart has the same decks so they could just send them to 200 walmarts.

For club 808 its probably not the best market, but if they put these out in wal marts they would sell well.

At Club 808 prices?  I doubt it.

Anything will sell at WalMart if it's cheap enough.

That's not the point, though.  Club 808 is a premium club with a paid membership.  One would expect that the decks being offered would be premium quality as well, in manufacture, design and artwork.  This does not live up to that description.

Yea I agree with the view on club 808, and I dont know what its currently selling for at club 808 but for a bit more then a standard deck I could see it doing ok.

I gave a project the bennifit of the doubt once and assumed it wasn't a scam. Key word there, Once. Cause guess what? Yea, it was a scam haha. I lost my $7 and ended up buying the guy, or girl, lunch.

Whether this particular one is a scam or not, not for me to say. I can say I absolutely won't pledge on this. May as well have called it Red Flag in my opinion. Would get the same reaction out of me. I don't think this project will fund, if it does, I don't think he'll fulfill it. There is nothing there, at all.

Im not planning on funding it. Just saying I would hope the guy just made a bunch of mistakes.

I am not a big fan of one way backs, but I kinda like this one. If the outside is an indicator of the inside, I feel the artwork could look nice.

65
Going from the design I would have guessed it was for some card game. I am lost and confused as well, but the marking system intrigues me. Not the slickest, but I feel you could get away with it.

Love the new back. Keep trying to find the start and the end and whats connected. I love how it looks and you cant tell.

People really should spend a bit more time before launching a project. I would like to give him the benefit of doubt and assume its not a scam.

I hope I am not the black sheep here but I very rarely see an "art deck" as a good thing. Most the ones I have see did not feel like a complete thing. Yes the artwork was good, but I guess I rather see cards as cards and the art to be the same through out.

69
Anyone else thinking the side flap might become common again? I am seeing it with a lot of the higher quality decks.

I actually really like it. I feel for the layman just wanting some cards these could work. I would say the face cards could have been done different but not bad IMO

I recently performed my 1st stage show. I was super nervous as I was performing mentalist and 2/3rds of the audience were kids. Surprising they did follow and enjoy it as well.

72
I am confident we will hit it on the 30th (guess already made). I know this since I am using my psychic gift. I am getting the vibe that it will be pushing it, as it will be a close call and barely make it.

I feel like there are to many different sets, and no need for all the limited editions.

74
I have been working on more mentalism and geek magic, could I make it work in one of my shows? Yes. But for me its not something that I really need.

These cards look so elegant. I might have to break my no buy rule.
