Glad I live in a dry climate. We still have bugs but nothing like the south east US where we moved from.

Re: False Casey's Playing Cards [KS]

Is it common to not show examples of the fronts of the cards? Description says custom aces and modified courts and I like to know what I'm getting before ordering something.

Re: Dave Stevens' Rocketeer Playing Cards [KS]

Lots of things I like about the deck but some of the court cards are probably a no-go for me. Fun idea though!

Re: About to sell my cards - advice? (2014 was my last post 😂)

I was avoiding cataloging my collection for a while because of laziness. I eventually found another project I wanted to avoid so I decided to catalog my cards. My collection is similarly sized and it took about an hour or two.

Re: Monster Cereals by Fulton's

Someone gave my family a box of each of the cereals. You would think it would be hard to mess up sugary cereals but somehow they managed to do it. I tried a small bowl of two different boxes and both were gross (and not in a too-sugary type of gross, just a bad flavor and texture). I'm not even sure...

Re: Rick Davidson Wishers KS

Back to the cards…  I like the redesigned courts. I'm not a history buff so I don't appreciate the closer similarities with the 15th century cards. Both the Wishers and the standard bicycle faces are still a bit evolved from the originals, which is a good thing. I like the Wisher courts more than st...

Re: Golden Ledger: Credit Card Edition Marked Playing Cards

Took me a second to notice the numbers and suits on the cards. It's a clever idea but definitely seems like a novelty item (I suppose most decks over $10 could be considered novelty items).

I like the green and gold color scheme. The tuck is also pretty cool, as expected for theory11. I could go either way on the courts. Overall I think they did a good job. I'm partial towards the actors associated with the original Broadway production but the faces used for the deck seem fine (I assum...

Ark is egregrious with its pricing. Its almost laughable that they think any of their decks are worth $300. At those prices you're paying for the fancy wood box and not the cards (even really fancy cards don't cost that much more than simpler cards). Whether the fancy wood boxes are worth the cost ...
