I feel like this deck would make for a lot of fun if you just took the cards out and used them as gaff cards.

The backs are great, but it's a one way back, it's subtle, but it's still noticeable.

Ha, no the vortex deck has a subtle one way back, this is a blatant one way back. :)

like the back but the front looks like a cheap deck from a Fred's or Dollar General!

I don't really mind this one way back. it seems like a design that a one way back would really matter

Well, it's me it's either subtle or obvious, I can't find the right description to fit one in the middle. It's not that obvious, but it's noticeable.

One-way - YES, IT'S VERY OBVIOUS.  Left side red, right side blue; vice versa when flipped.  Dead obvious.  Like having tea while sitting next to the 800-pound gorilla.  You can see him, you can SMELL him - you can't ignore him.

I look at this deck and this is what I see.
An Ace of Spades made of clip art.
Two jokers made of clip art.
A King with a clipped-in two-finger peace sign - about the most original idea.
A riot of red, white and blue colors everywhere.
The Bicentennial just called - they want their tacky style back...

What's not to love?
Practically EVERYTHING.
There's too many better decks out there - I pass in spades.

Honestly though, what are you do with them, you can get a lot more better stuff for $31, how about 4 Vortex decks?

Haha, who would do that - if is he doing that (which I doubt), he's probably just doing it for the popularity/rep. even though it's a bad rep, any pubilicity is good publicity.
