The Ghost Deck, unless you bought one of the gaff ones, is just a regular deck of cards, albeit fancy-looking.

i know that, but im trying to think of something, color changes or something like that

I haven't ordered any Ghosts as yet but was wondering about the possibilities of doing a color fusion routine with these cards and some tigers.

Could make up some interesting stories when changing from a white grey to a black white backed card, particularly if you introduce the ghost deck in the box, show the whitish deck and then start talking about black magic or the dark side.

I think that an off centre printed ace would go down better in this deck than a tiger deck using a colour change.

OK - I've got my hands on half a dozen decks, really nice cards.

So who's seen the Black Ghosts on the Ellusionist site? Not for sale but spend $350 (£203 at todays exchange rate) EXCLUDING POSTAGE and we'll send you a deck with dog tags and a bottle opener. Hmmm....... I wonder who's going to spend to get their hands on these. Not me!

Check out: http://www.ellusionist.com/Christmas-Contest-2005.php

and they call it a contest................

I think that I'd rather order from Penguin. Some VERY unsavoury terms and conditions.

(Nice cards though)

hmm i also saw that "contest" there the other day, i was almosted tempted to buy one more thing to get tattues, but i remembered i dont like tattue and i will never use them. so i just got the coin thing with criss angel

and doing a color fusion with GHOST AND TIGER DECKS?!
sure, you can go flush your money down a toliet

I want the dog tags! Especially the Ace one. I love the Ghost Ace design

I have a ghost deck. I just got it a couple weeks ago. They are really nice. However they are just like a totally ordinary deck except black and white lol with the the corners colored in like hearts and diamonds. I like the Black Tigers a little bit more. However when I do a card trick to people I always use just an ordinary deck because people get suspicious when using a deck they have never seen and that is the last thing I need lol.

Mine arrived on friday. A very nice deck. I'm very fond of the joker cards, I recon Ellusionist sould have made another joker card, so that he is facing out of the card, therefore giving a chance to play around with some joker story (like you can with the tiger ace and the offset ace). I still favor the tigers over the Ghost tho.

so is the printing problem gone?

man, these decks are expensive. regular colored is around 2.99 in stores

What printing problem are you referring to?

The dogtags have actually gone on sale! $15 for the Ace and E logo and chain in a small pouch! All of the other prizes from the competition are going on sale too, apart from the Black Ghosts. I hope they bring them out, i didnt have enough money to spend $350!

Sorry for my bad english first... can anyone tell me how much does it cost to order the Ghost Deck to finland..? i mean shipping..?
And I noticed a nose problem on kings to... On all my black tigers...

Gambler - the nose printing is not a mistake - it was intentional

i think thats in the gaff deck., I'm not sure

The printing problem still exists, I order a ghost deck and gaff deck last month and both suffer from this. On the bright side, I send ellusion asked that I only send one card from each (my choice, not the ace) so they could show to the retailer and the sent me a replacement deck of both (free of charge & shipping). If I had a scanner I could have simple sent them a scan. The replacements are much better and I still have the off center ones to cut up use where it's less noticeable.

Just ordered a deck of these from NUMS and got them through today. The quality of these cards are EXCELLENT. I've been trying to do a fan for weeks now and I can very rarely get a smooth/evenly spaced fan.. even with a brand spanking new deck of bikes. I opened the ghost deck, tried to do a fan and got it PERFECTLY on my first try. I love these cards!
