Try the card collection... Cards4magic is the web address. They have a lot of gaffs for sale. Only about £1 a pop aswell. Alternatively, learn to split cards and make your own?

I suggest that you look at this thread

http://www.talkmagic.co.uk/ftopic7808-15.php

in particular, look at the CardMaker web site and I've posted comments at the bottom regarding my use of his service.

VERY HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

ended up getting in touch with cardmaster from the link posted above.
cards arrived today only a few days after ordering.
the quality is unbelievable and price was very reasonable.
would highly recommend
