Re: Bicycle Rhapsody
I always look at the cards in Walmart, the same ol' zombie and Pluma decks but no new stuff.

Re: Bicycle Rhapsody
I've seen those but I have also got quite a lot of Club tattoo decks, blue and orange as well some black/silver Bicycles and pink (Not the Breast Cancer decks) I still haven't figured out the Black Bicycles. The just say "Playing cards" with the same in French below it. The back of the tuck shows a Silver back with Silver pips. The Pink deck are the same except the faces are pink as well. I am exhausted and have no clue where I put my camera. I'll post pics when I can.Bikefanatic wrote:I always look at the cards in Walmart, the same ol' zombie and Pluma decks but no new stuff.

We started getting the club tattoo V2s in Mississippi. Guess I'll have to keep a lookout for these now.Bikefanatic wrote:I always look at the cards in Walmart, the same ol' zombie and Pluma decks but no new stuff.

Re: Bicycle Rhapsody
I love the backs! Nice and vintage-looking. Are these a reprint? I don't have my Hotchman's nearby... I would like the backs more if they were two way.

Re: Bicycle Rhapsody
I've got them for sale on Ebay (username: bicyclecardguy). The faces pic above is from my listing. They are hard to find as of now, so they're a little pricey. Not sure if they will be more available soon. I have sold about 8 decks in 48 hours, so people obviously aren't able to find them anywhere else right now.

Re: Bicycle Rhapsody
I gave in and bought the purple deck at a Wal-Mart in Las Vegas minutes ago. With tax, it was $3.75. The deck is alright for its price, the red pips are maroon and some courts have a lil purple on them. I'm trying to upload picture off of my phone without editing but file is too big.

Re: Bicycle Rhapsody (wap)
I actually found them in my little hometown before jackson, MS. Grabbed a pair and actually found expert backs so I grabbed a blue and a green.
Feeding the addiction one deck at a time.

Re: Bicycle Rhapsody
I picked up 2 sets of these in Virginia. $13.65 with tax and minus the two 50 cent off coupons I scavenged off of a 2 deck standard pack. (BTW... If you want a 2 pack of standard Bikes.. don't buy them in MD or VA. I've taken all of the 50 cent off coupons )

Re: Bicycle Rhapsody
Likewise, the Wally's of Bellevue, WA, Factoria, WA, Tucson, AZ, and Phoenix, AZ are all bereft of Rhapsody. With the exception of Bellevue (which has pretty much nothing but standard bikes and the cheap-o brands they carry), all of these have both the blue and green distressed Experts and the blue and orange Tattoo decks.

Re: Bicycle Rhapsody
Same in the Sacramento Valley, Ca. No rhapsody at all. Hardly any cards in fact, they were all moved to make room for Xmas decorations.

I saw these the other day at Walmart and I picked my kid up a deck. Are these only being sold in Walmarts?

They haven't shown up where I am. The local Wally Worlds all shifted things around for the holidays and drastically shrank their card / game section.

Re: Bicycle Rhapsody
Picked up a couple of each of these today. They were in with a new little display in the center of the isle near the tire center. They're finally coming west.
TL:DR It's completely up to you.
We can still be friends.
I actually like playing cards.

Re: Bicycle Rhapsody
If for some reason they don't make it over to your area and no one else helps you out, I'll pick up some at the local Walmart after the holidays and hook you up.
