Many places sell different versions of Sven Gali, ID etc. all it is is a different 'back design' to be fair

Indeed, I remember Padgali a few years back from Nothing Up My Sleeve...I mentioned this to Paul when he showed me the cards...they are very nice and I use them for a piece on corporate branding that has worked well for me recently...the sky is the limit with these...not sure about originality as I think Prism has a routine as well...

Forgive me if this seems a stupid question... Is this just a svengali deck with nothing printed on either side or the cards along with the pdf of routines?

I don't mean 'just' as in 'is that all they are' by the way. I'm just trying to get an idea of what it is.

Thanks,

Shaun.

yes it is

Though nowhere near as good quality as bikes as it appears to be self-printed

self printed? there not printed at all they are blank.

If you want slick, round-cornered smooth cards that look like blank playing cards then double-black Bicycle cards are for you.

If you want a bunch of innocent-looking business cards, upon which you can write anything you like, then Paul's cards are ideal.

Of course, there's nothing to stop anyone spending an evening or two with a guillotine, a pile of blank cards and some patience creating the same thing. Spend money to save time - classic consumerism/capitalism. Plus, you won't get the booklet

I like Paul's cards but I also produce my own. I'd buy his booklet and a couple of sets of his cards and see where it takes you.

Oh by all means I didn't mean it negatively. I just meant it along the lines of it isn't Sven Hali like 'bicycle cards' Sven gali

Thanks Ted, I think I'll give them a go when I order some more stuff.
