I have like 7 Jaqk decks, and they are my favorite deck ever. I wish I had more.

I just thought of something, are these USPCC decks?

If it's the reprint of T11 ,then yes.
But if it's the original one then no.
(T11 is two way back, original one is one way back.)

I really do want to get a couple decks of these JAQKs. There's something about the box that makes me want it so bad. The design just looks so snappy and smart.

the orginal has one way back i know but not too much of a difference if you using and not performing .. is the quality of the card difference?

For anyone interested, you can pick up a pack of these from JAQK's website:

http://jaqkcellars.com/stuff-jaqk-cellars-merchandise/signature-playing-cards

That's where I got mine. They don't say USPCC on them anywhere, but they are not one-way back. here's a quick snap of them from my webcam:

You're very welcome. They are exquisite cards. Worth the $9 price tag JAQK puts on them.

Their shipping is outrageous. They either ship by UPS or Fedex. They have a note on their website which says they ship all non-wine items by USPS but there is no option for shipping before you check out. I thought about emailing them to ask but never got around to it. Did you work something out with them?

AceGambit · « **Reply #11 on:** December 20, 2011, 09:26:08 PM »

*Hunts for invoice*....

I sucked it up and paid the $4.00 charge to ship them to Boston. Where are you shipping to?

Here's a snap of my order:

munro159 · « **Reply #12 on:** December 20, 2011, 09:33:35 PM »

just checked at their website again. The shipping is $4 dollars per deck. So in a sense it is $13.00 a deck....which is still not bad...but still a little rediculous.

I love my Jaqk the metalic Ink is amazing!

Don Boyer · « **Reply #14 on:** December 21, 2011, 01:25:54 AM »

Hey, AceGambit, when you get yours let us know if they're somehow different than the T11 release - like with the metallic inks or some other feature.

These are not made by USPCC, so the stock and finish wouldn't be good.

Lushbob · « **Reply #16 on:** December 21, 2011, 04:28:30 AM »

Hey AceGambit, just to say, the reason why the deck you bought from the JAQK website is a two way back is because they've run out of stock of the original decks. So, they sell the Theory11 decks straight from their website. You can partly tell that anyway, seeing as the deck you have doesn't have a seal.
Also, just to back up my point, when I emailed JAQK to ask if they had any JAQK decks left in stock, part of the reply said "Yes, we do have our second edition playing cards in stock.". So, they no longer stock the first edition ones that they themselves made, but they stock the second edition ones made by Theory11 instead.
Hope this clears up any confusion.

What? Really?
Are you sure that it is not their own 2nd edition? (But the same look as T11's)

moonexe · « **Reply #18 on:** December 21, 2011, 04:50:35 AM »

If you compare those to the pictures on T11, there doesn't seem to be any difference. The box is identical, no extra copyright print or anything, no seal either.

I'm almost sure. I've never heard of JAQK doing a 2nd edition of their own deck, and I read somewhere (I forget where) that the JAQK website now sells Theory11 ones. Either way, it seems that the deck box and cards are indentical to the Theory11 deck, even if the deck is made by JAQK cellars.

Joshua Robinson · « **Reply #20 on:** December 21, 2011, 06:24:17 AM »

they should have some of the 1st ed in stock, because:
GIFT SET COLLECTION
The JAQK Cellars Gift Box is an attractive, sturdy transport and protective home to any four of our wines. The distinctive signature JAQK Cellars blue makes for a handsome presentation to any wine lover.

And every Gift Set comes complete with a deck of JAQK Cellars Premier Edition Playing Cards.

Premier Edition means first edition.

I have mine, I've had them for a few months, I just happened to notice that T11 was out of stock, and I wasn't sure why, because I bought mine from JAQK directly. Then I started looking around this forum for any differences, and I'm pretty sure the deck I have meets all the criteria of the T11 decks. (but doesn't say T11 anywhere on it).

The JAQK Signature Deck combines the distinctive JAQK design with the peerless quality of one of the world's most respected playing card manufacturers—the same one that makes the cards used in casinos and poker tournaments around the world.

It doesn't say USPCC, but it's strongly implied

Guys! Update about the controversy over whether or not the JAQK website is selling the Theory11 version decks. Here's an excerpt from an email I sent them about shipping prices: "Can you confirm that you currently sell the edition of the JAQK decks that Theory11 produced?" Part of their reply was: "These are the same cards that Theory11 sells".
So, that clears that up; the JAQK Cellars website are selling the same decks that Theory11 sell.

Are you sure about that? Didn't JAQK commission T11 to produce the V2 JAQK cards?

xela · « **Reply #26 on:** December 21, 2011, 07:50:37 PM »

I am not sure why so much mystery surrounds these cards. There are two editions: the original JAQK decks with a smooth finish, one way back, & seals, and the T11 reprint which has no seals, a good finish and a two-way back.

I think the main confusion is over who's selling which version; I think the fact that the JAQK Cellars website switched from selling their original decks to selling the Theory11 JAQK reprints made a couple of people a little confused.
