Bicycle playing cards 99p find out more.

Hi guys,
I have found a website where you can get red or blue bicycle decks for 99p.
The websitehttp://www.magicbox.uk.com/

Now heres the catch they are seconds where they do have defects.
In my 4 decks the main problems were that a few cards in the deck where off centre and some of the colors were a bit funny like the black was sometimes bluey.
But good for practising, having double cards and so on.
I thought they were good

Cheers#
James

Nice.

I might have to get these for signed card effects...I don't mind about minor printing errors...as long as they're not like Presto Printo I'm happy :).

IMHO, i think that in general the standards of decks from the USPCC are going down a bit, i find that every deck is printed slightly off centre now, but i only notice it because i scrutinise my decks!

If you want cards cheaper, get bricks (12 decks at a time) from Costco, i get mine from Costco, it works about 88p per deck, i have 72 decks unopened at home! thats how addicted i am to them!!!!!!!!!!!

On another point, the costco decks arent faulty colours, but i find that all decks of bicycles ar slightly off centre now, but thats just because i obessively check my decks out and notice small things!

Yes true but then you can use this off centre marking to your advantage if you see what I mean...
