Cost: ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ○ ○ ○
If you want casino cards cancelled, they’re basically free. Well at least most generic casino cards are. I was able to get these off of Spinetti’s on Ebay. Pretty sure they still carry a bunch. Uh huh. Cost is 10(10what?) per set of 5, though shipping is $7.50. Buying there gives you some sort of coupon for future purchases though. It was either a discount, or free shipping. I forget.

Ebay stores only? Which means the supply can only decrease with time.

Its generic Aristocrat stock, of which I am not too big a fan of. I also don’t like how it fans. See what I just did there? <__< Club Special? Whatever that means… A good deck probably would keep flat longer than a bicycle deck, though thick usually means absorbs dust and sweat for me. Also the fact that its my favorite deck to tear up probably doesn’t help. So if you happen to use them, keep them away from me? Yes?

Quite average. It works. For awhile.
Back Design: ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ○ ○
Can you say minimalistic? Text. On a white background. Who needs borders when that’s basically all you’re getting. With text. Red or Blue on White. Of course, I only picked red, since,,,you know,,,my favorite color is red…You could probably stick one of these facedown in a blank deck and get away with it.
Giant Fan: ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○
Hmm. Imagine if the text wasn’t there. Then you’d have a blank giant fan. But the text is there. So, hope you like seeing lots of L’s , La’s, and broken fragments on top, and a bunch of Ls on the bottom. Its like it spells Lalllllllll….if you were dyslexic or something. Keep in mind that the above photo is using a deck I left alone outside in sunlight for quite some time, and I cropped out my hand.
Comments
-Well, I won’t be picking up more of them. Because,,,they’re not super totally awesome. But they’re nice to have. For ripping corners off and in half and whatever other way you want. The jumbo index only helps since you can actually rip off a larger corner for numbered indices.
