If anyone else on this discussion board is from Canada you may find this to be interesting. I just found a great price on Bicycle poker size decks. Real Canadian Superstore has packages of three decks for $7.50. If you buy two or more three packs, they are then $7.10 per package of three decks......too good a price to pass up.

I am not sure what the exchage rates, shipping, etc would be, but if it is suitable, I would not be apposed to buying a bunch of these three packs, and sending them out to anyone that is interested. With the exchange and shipping, it may not be worth it if you are not from Canada.

I get bicycles from cotco, its approximatley a dollar a deck, ( 13 dollars for a pack of 12 decks)

Very cheap

WOW......that is very cheap! May I ask you a couple of questions? Are you in Canada, or the US, and do you know if they have them at all Costco locations?

I live in the United States, but I do believe that they will have them at almost all Costco's

They are pretty standard cases of bicycle card, 6 red 6 blue.
Teachers at my school are supplied with them, so that they can do lessons with multiplication for low level students.

Where in the states? I am in Texas.

I live in California, but I promise you that they will have this twelve pack at Costco. It is the standard large scale card pack. It is distributed in classrooms for young students.

They even have them in Costco in the UK where Bikes are practically unknown by non-magicians. So I would guess that they are worldwide stockists.

Well I have been doing some conversion of american dollars, canadian dollars, and british pounds, and if my calculations are correct, it appears that the pricing seems to work out to about relatively the same everywhere......we all seem to be getting similar deals......as far as any quality concerns go (from reading previous forums) my opinion from working in retail in the past is.......if a company is going to sell off the factory defects, they will make changes to either the packaging, product, etc, to ensure that people do not assume they are regulars. Imagine it this way.....you buy a deck of bikes not knowing they are seconds, and have never bought a set previously.....it turns out they are seconds, and you then assume that to be the quality with wich they produce. It is not good for sales to have people not be able to obviously distinguish second rate products from the first.....so I would not be concerned about getting poor quality!

Bike cards being issued to teachers! A bit different from my day when a box of chalk was standard stuff for our teachers
