Title: Aussie card collector, impromtu magician and card store owner
Post by: joejoey on September 29, 2013, 08:35:25 PM: G'day guys,

Just want to introduce myself and let you all know I am the proud owner of www.theflush.com.au a playing card store dedicated to playing cards for us Aussies, New Zealanders, and most of Australasia and Asia too.

Take it easy on me, I'm only new here.

And I'll see you all around the forums.

BTW: cool-looking store site!

That's the general consensus around here. Though both forums are very rich in knowledge.

I have to agree. I never really understood the differences in the stocks and finishes until I read the article about them on the UC forum.

It wasn't a complete list though, but it detailed the most common ones.

Also, you're only a short distance (relatively speaking) from me!

Bother, bother, bother, bother, bother!
