The original Smoke and Mirrors v1 set, sealed, $100

Red Jerry's Nugget deck, sealed in cello, the cello has "popped" due to age but it's still on there pretty good, $300

Free shipping domestically, $5/deck internationally

Buy all three at once, for $400, and I will throw in a free If an Octopus Could Palm deck.

I'm keeping this deal up through this Friday, and taking it down after that.

PM me to set up a sale!

Shipping comes with tracking.

I have the box set and the v1's if you still need them, PM me your offer

Alex i have been sending you pm's but you don't answer ?
Dawg I've been messaging you on Facebook XD

4
I have these too, want to send me a list of all the decks you want so I can see if I can send you all the ones you're looking for in bulk? :P

While they're not the most expensive cards (you can buy them for $3 here), they're definitely interesting.

Baofeng No. 99

Don't you mean "The yellow honeybee Baofeng playing cards Texas playing cards explode the artificial flower with gold-foil three countries to kill poker full 12 to deliver 1"?  ;D

Yeah at first I thought they were just horrible knock-off Bee's (and they kind of are). I expected weird plastic flakes and flimsy paper when I opened them, but to my surprise they felt like a thinner Maverick deck from the USPC today.

Check your PMs. :P I don't log into here that often, sorry.

For anyone wondering, the package was reshipped with priority shipping for no additional cost (since it was my fault the package was RTS) and I included extra decks as well for the hassle.

I document every shipment I make with photos of the ENTIRE shipping process, as well as keep all of the stuff USPS gives me.

And Don, I'd appreciate it if you didn't imply that I ever censored the forum. Two people have been banned under my watch, both of which were antagonistic spammers and one of which had over a dozen alternate accounts. No posts have ever been deleted while I was admin either.

I'm actually quite curious to what the Baofeng No.99 deck is?

My grandma got it for me because she heard I collect cards. It's a Bee knockoff deck made in China and handles surprisingly well. By no means what you'd expect from USPCC, but it was a pleasant surprise nonetheless.

Playing Card Plethora / The rarest decks I've found over the years
« on: June 17, 2014, 09:19:16 PM »
Hey y'all, I've been reducing the size of my collection for quite some time now. Here is my final collection - the one I plan on keeping until I'm old. All of these decks either have personal meaning or are somehow rare/vintage. These are only my sealed decks, not my open decks (of which there are hundreds...) My collection used to be over 5,000 decks, and now I think it's less than 100 sealed, and about 200 opened.

Yes, all of these are sealed, in cellophane (if they didn't originally come in cellophane, I sealed them myself in the same cello that USPCC uses!)

I used to know the print date of each deck but I've since forgotten. :(

Currently have a deal for 17 decks for $300! Hopefully the packaging is good so none of these bad boys get dinged up or dented  8)

Bad news, I kinda just put them in a grocery bag with an address label and taped it shut. :l

paper or plastic? didnt one of vortex's backers get his decks in a plastic bag? I remember he was international, and it was the mail persons fault lol.

Hahaha yeah, customs tore the package open for inspection, tossed it in some plastic bag, wrote a sorry note on it and sent it to him.

Added tooooons of new stuff, updated supply, and a new discount for an order over $1000. :)

You might want a border on the outer edge of the cards, because they will be hard to follow on home-made YT vids. :P

Yeah you can edit the CSS and make it your own. Pretty easy to do and great if you want to make a designer/seller profile that you link to other people.

Alex, if I'm not mistaken, those White Lions Series A Red sets are from the AIP Bottle, right?

If that's the case, then in each set one of the tuck boxes contains a red deck, while the other contains a PURPLE deck - a transition color that USPC allow David to make by not interrupting the print run for the blue deck and transitioning to the red.  As such the color will be uneven, even from card to card in the same deck.  I've seen an uncut sheet of these in David's office and they're VERY cool.

Well the boxes are red, I'm not sure what's inside and I'm not willing to find out by opening them. :P

Hey guys! I'm in the process of making some big life changes and that means I unfortunately can't hold on to my personal collection of decks.

Sealed in perfect condition. I've overused the word seal. Don't go clubbing baby seals.

Ellusionist White Ghost 1st Edition UV500 x4 - $25
Back before whatever Ghost decks they're selling now, Ellusionist had what was arguably the best handling modern deck. The v1 White Ghost features UV500 finish, still printed in Cincinnati.

Vortex Prototype One Deck - $55
The sealed Prototype Two deck sold on Kickstarter for over $200. This is the first prototype of the Vortex deck.

These are sealed in perfect condition.

Red Crown Deck First Edition x1 - $10
Again, screw reprints! These are the first decks ever released by The Blue Crown.
These are sealed in perfect condition

David Blaine's Series A Red Set - $250 Only One Left!
I can't even find them on eBay so I have no idea what to price them at now. Only 100 of these sets were ever made, so that's 200 decks total.
One deck is signed by David Blaine in each set, the other is sealed. They have a gold tear-away strip and a gold seal.
You will get set #99 or #100, or both if you buy them both. They come with a card signed by Jamie D. Grant signifying which set it is.
Each set comes in a black collector's case that has the Split Spade logo etched on the top.

+Rep has been handed out!

When I had only just got in to playing cards, I was watching a lot of deck reviews. I was actually searching Google for the worst decks of playing cards and I found a video by Alex detailing his least favourite decks. Right at the start there was a link to the discourse so I followed it & arrived here.

That's really cool that people still watch my channel. I crapped my pants when I saw how many views that specific video had. o_o
