Two for His Heels on Rubylane has AN ACTUAL 1890 ORIGINAL "Cartes Indiennes" deck FOR SALE, WITH A BOX THAT IS IN RATHER GOOD CONDITION. If that name does not ring a bell, Grimaud reprinted it in 1986 as "Venise Simplon-Orient Express." This deck is one of the most beautiful decks of playing cards ever created.
The asking price is 350 USD. I have not seen other decks of this kind sold but I think that that is a wickedly good price for this.
Here is the link. If somebody does not buy this one, I will be legit mad.
Edit: Romeril just bought it! He promised to post pictures

Black Monolith + White Monolith for 89,99 USD. 5 pair available. Shipping from South Carolina. That price is only a few dollars more than buying them for Gio's website was and as both all Monolith decks have been sold out, the price is really not that bad.

Note: I actually know nothing about this deck, but I have a feeling that this might be a nice one. The Joker is custom.

Yep, but with common items it can easily lead to a deluge of emails/notifications - plus some of the real hidden deals are when a seller has misspelled a word so the item doesn't come up on regular searches
Given the seller’s feedback and that it has over 3.5 days left, I don’t think it’s suspicious. It is uncommon to see actual auctions with a lower than retail starting price on cards, but if they are still low towards the end, I won’t hesitate to bid.
Well $5 is very low - I might bid myself
Anyways, there are sales on my site, of course not $5 for both decks but actually pretty good deals on Monolith series
This is the best price for this deck I have seen in a while
The seller has lowered the price 60 USD for the deck. If you are looking for this deck, this price is pretty damn good.

hsbc, I'm so sorry that I posted the original link, I did not know that they were reproductions.
Do they even have a permisson to do that? Nobody has heard from Emmanuel José in a a few years so he hasn't been there to protect his IP.

Be aware that the decks from this seller are decent quality but they are REPRODUCTIONS.
Ah, man. I knew it had to be too good to be true; and it was. EJ is on FB and IG. I'll PM him on FB to give him the headsup. Thanks for letting us know, joe.
EDIT: Turns out there's a warning at this site about the fakes. It's all the way to the bottom with a photo. Joe, does the tuck look the same as the one in the photo? https://playingcardcollector.net/2013/0 ... nuel-jose/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
I purchased a few older decks from this seller. The tucks are not identical to the original. They are also very thick, so it's clear they are not original. I was expecting that the decks I got would be reproductions. One was a transformation, another the Ravenswood. But seeing that he is selling modern decks, I'm pretty sure they will also be reproductions.
For Curator, the ebay posting says "Reprint". I didn't think there was a reprint of this deck.
