Can anyone help me find the cheapest Bicycle cards in the U.K. ? (mail order)as I am currently experimenting with Packet tricks and Gaffed cards which require numerous identical cards.
The cheapest I know of is Abrakazam at £2.50
a packet(plus postage) which seems to be the going rate at most magic suppliers.
My brother told me that he was looking at a site (A few months ago)selling them for £1 a packet,
but can't remember which site.

Had you considered buying packets in quantity?

I was sure Laurance (Abrakazam) offered a better price on 10 decks, or was it 20. Anyway I have just tried to find the deal on his site but he may have removed it. Either way, why not drop him a line and ask him if he can do a better price for say ten decks.

As for £1.00 a packet... that sounds too good to be true!

Visit MagicBox . They sell Bikes at £1.99, also 'seconds' at £1.50. Seconds are brand new Bikes, where the printing may be slightly off, although no-one would ever notice! Also, their box says 'seconds', but if you're just using them up on packet tricks, this aint a problem.

Just noticed MagicBox aren't advertising seconds on their site. They do stock them, so if you're interested, give 'em a ring on 0191 2325335, they're a friendly bunch.

Off centre printed Bikes make great "one way" decks
