Wheres the best place to buy them?

dunno about "best"; but you can get them from cards4magic.co.uk

but they only have them in Red

If the Bond Agency doesn't have them, maybe try the Magic Attic?

I can't post a link to the actual product, but in the left hand column there's a 'drop-down' list of manufacturers. Choose 'Bicycle' and you should find it easily enough.

I'm looking for four very elusive Bicycle ESP cards at the moment, but no one seems to stock them. They're double-faced cards with the following symbols on each card:

Cross/Circle
Wavy Lines/Circle
Square/Circle
Star/Circle

It's so I can perform The Third Choice (great effect!) from Osterlind's ETMMM series. If push comes to shove, I can easily make my own using cards from my Bicycle ESP deck, but I'd rather not use thick cards if I can help it.

If anyone can help, I'd be grateful. I know The Card Collection stock double-faced Bicycle ESP cards, but they don't have those specific cards. (Sorry to hijack your thread, Georgia's Dad).

Have you tried asking them for blue? I have found them to be very helpful in the past and they may be able to order them for you - it's always worth asking!

EDIT: I'm such an idiot - I have a Bicycle ESP deck in blue backs and it only just clicked! I can't post a direct link, but search for "ESP" at The Card Collection and it's the second item on the list.

but I need a standard pack 5 symbols 5 sets

If you don't mind having symbols in several colours, you can make up a standard deck using the cards from the ESP Test Deck. If you're after a standard deck with only black symbols, that might be more difficult to get hold of. (Unless you spend £30 on three of these decks and make them up that way!)

replicant - try the piatnik esp deck from cards4magic - you get some double backers with each pack...

havent got a deck to hand to check for you...

theyre only a fiver..

But the sell them in Red for £8.50

D'oh, I'm an idiot twice! I've also got this ESP deck but didn't even think to check it for the necessary cards (I had Bicycle on the mind but they don't have to be Bikes I suppose). Will dig it out later and hope for the best.

EDIT: I've just had a look and the deck has all the cards I need and then some! Splendid.

They do indeed. I was thinking of the Test decks, which are a tenner each.

Blue backs, you say? Here ya go...

I have placed my order with Magic Attic and now have to sit on my hands until it arrives.

If you have the Piatnic cards they should be thin enough to spray glue two together and be normal thickness of Bikes. I make effects with the jumbo Piatnic cards and they are not as thick as a jumbo Bike,. Piatnics are great. I will try to order some test decks because you have given me some great ideas.
