please tell me if it is, if so i may get it

I usually see them for around $5-$10 a deck, so it isn't a bad deal, but not amazing.

It's okay for online I guess. The set costs $9 in retail stores + tax here.

Ahem. Hate to intrude here, but I don't suppose anyone'd mind picking me up a set too?
Obviously I'd pay shipping and all. And I'd pay $10 for the set, so hey, there's a dollar in it for you.

If you don't have ANY decks, then I'd consider this a good deal. Each deck comes out to $5, so that isn't really bad.

Yeah I've looked at these but I don't care for "magic decks". I'd rather have regular decks with nothing extra about them

Actually, they're pretty cool.  This isn't a bad deal at all - individually you can find the decks around five bucks if you look hard enough, but Blaine still has the set on his website for $25.  I'm guessing Alex gets them cheaper because of the location - stuff like playing cards in Vegas aren't exactly rare...

Maybe if you asked him nicely, he'd go on a buying run for you non-domestic buyers and cut you a better deal that this eBay auction...

Yeah, I'd rather they weren't magic decks either. But, I've gotta have them for my collection.  ;) Then I'll have two out of the three Tally-Ho Split Spades, all the Split Spades Lions, all the Split Spades White Lions, both the Bee Split Spades, and all the Bicycle Split Spades!

Yeah, those Tally-Ho decks are a bitch in high heels to get - not many even end up for sale.  I got supremely lucky finding enough to fill out my collection - the only DBlaine deck I don't have is the purple White Lions.
