Fun courts and a great price for a fully custom deck. Reading the ad copy about handling let’s me assume they won‘t be en par with what most of us are used to and would consider A tier but I rarely come across a deck that is lower than B tier nowadays so, it should be fine.
I dislike when pictures only show one queen, jack and king – a great way to hide repeating courts.
Back design is the weakest link here.

Edit: Just checked the link – repeating courts indeed. *insert supersad panda here*

Edit, edit: So repeating, that I didn‘t even realise, that at the pictures hsbc shared, it already shows them repeating, haha.

I like the custom pips and the artwork but the backs are keeping me away.

I scooped this up and, after reading the comments, I realize I'm a true sucker for custom pips and not really bothered by backs (unless they're supremely distracting/hideous). I didn't even really notice the writing on the backs but now that y'all mention it, I guess I don't mind it because the font is kinda fun and apropos to the artwork of the fun fish.
I'm not as interesting as I think I am.
