Back on track. It’s Wednesday.

Sure, it’s a custom deck. But passing that price onto the consumer isn’t always a cool choice. Oh well. I forget. Was it 5, 6, or 7 a deck….only at MJM….hmm..

MJM says limited printing. We know limited means…we made too many so we need to sell them faster…somehow…you could probably get one or a few at this point, nothing special atm.

Personally. I like these. Not because its all red, black and white, or emo or anything. Lets see. Feeling of stock. Is . Really Soft. Softer than bikes. But still with a ‘soft’ snap. Did I mention its soft. Everything else is about average. Probably takes hits and bends more so than other decks. But the one I have open is still in … good life after 1-2 months. Holds together well. Somewhat durable. Unfortunately, it eats heat easy. So protect them/?

Red, Black, and White gets super bias points from me. Hm. You can see…razors… a rose…among other things. The white border at least keeps it from going crazy. Aside from that, fans and spreads aren’t anything special.

Well. I don’t want to use this deck for XCM or everyday use. So I Keep in mnemonica stack. And since that uses so many faros. it’s a plus. Super. 1 the 4 of clubs…2 the 2 of hearts….blah blah blah. Its by Juan Tamariz. Good stuff.

-Dan Sperry. His acts are quite nice. I don’t have anything against him yet. Unless you count these cards. What…no…just kidding…these cards are alright. But then again. I don’t have much praise for them either. Except for the color scheme. Give me something red black and white, and I’ll buy it. Which means I’m looking at those 09 anglos sometime soon. How’d they know??? Must be real magic.

Welcome back?

Name: RJRTC 2007 Bee
Date: 6.5.2009

Hit or miss here. I picked up a brick at 3$ a pack and then some last year in May 2008. The price on Ebay kinda jumps up and down a lot depending on how much you buy, and how fast you kill decks. Lucky me.

If these were readily available like bicycles, me and probably a bunch of other people would truly be happy. Reality says they’re not. Promotional items for camel cigarettes in 2007 , you might be lucky to find them in liquor store rather than eBay. eBay…..darn. huge SIGH. At least I don’t use them everyday.

Can you say AWESOME? As white bordered bees are rare enough to come by in the first places, these are additionally super. A pack I opened last year last around 6months. And it still fans today. And such. This bee is strong. And surprising durable.

Very easy. Maybe I’m just overall biased towards being favorable. But there’s nothing wrong here. Cards seem to be cut well on all sides.

Available in Red and Blue. They’ve been referred to as ….watermelons? Because the yellow whatever look like seeds..? I don’t know…they look like some butterfly like pattern to me. But still quite … whats the word…refreshing? Like,, a back that’s white bordered, isn’t just one color, or shades of black and white. Well, its just red/ blue + black + yellow. But still made of so much awesome. Also correctly looks good in fans and spreads.

-This deck might be what is referred to as ‘exclusive’ Unless you’re a heavy smoker of camel branded cigarettes in 2007, you’ll have to find other ways to acquire this deck. Might I suggest Ebay. Over the last year of tracking this deck , they’ve sold anywhere between 2 $ to 15 $ a deck. I sold some of mine off at that upper limit….yea…just the blues ones. Since I don’t like blue decks. I mean…I like red more…but tahts besides the point. Which is. They pop up on eBay a lot. So. it’s a BEE branded deck. With white borders. That alone is awesome + points right there. The box design is also quite subtle. Only words are on the bottom of the box. I wish all my other decks had boxes like these…
