Yes you can get them but I think they look a bit rubbish..

Get the 1800 series or balck decks and you won;t notice the dirt. Other than this, you're wasting mour money as well as your spit

The 1800 series are good, but I find the Black decks, after extensive use, go white around the edges and fade.
Ok, this gives them a slightly more esotoric look maybe, but for the price you're paying you could find a good deal on brick of bikes and IF you deicde to purchase and study Royal Road you'd be less upset when a deck from a big box that wasn't that expensive gets ruined rather than your pricey show-off deck.

I do have some of these decks and only use them for performance. If you think you have invented one of the most basic and easiest of forces then there is a lot of learning to do and having a nice, flash looking deck won't improve you as a magician or indeed improve what people think of you.
You won't suddenly overnight become a great magician because your nice cards look like the sort of cards a magician you have, it's what you do with them.

If you walked on stage with the most expensive looking saxophone in the world but couldn't play a note on it, no one would be impressed and this is the same kind of thing.

You are about to learn the biggest secret of magic, one we have all learnt and that is that magic is not all about gimmicks and expensive props.

What follows is study, a huge amount of practice and then some skill aquired. You will also have the ability to perform when your expensive gimmicks are not with and the feeling of complete satisfaction. Plus people will be far more impressed by you.

Good luck. You'll know if you get through Royal Road whether you have a genuine interest or it's a fad you're going through.

If you hadn't guessed - what I wote was suppoed to be taken 'tongue in cheek' with 1800's alredy looking dirty and black not showing the dirst as much. Anyway... I wouldn't recommend any of them and agree in full with your comments Lord Freddie

well i think 3 ghost decks wont harm anyone for performance... i use my crappy ones for practice...
