In my opinion, everything looks awesome except the back design. The back design looks much better in the colored versions of the deck. But the faces look really cool on this deck and I especially love the court cards.

Wow. I liked the look of the Pr1me decks, but I LOVE the look of these. Will definitely be impatiently waiting for them.

I'm beginning to wonder if we will ever see this deck. First it was supposed to come out Sept 1st, never happened. Now it was supposed to come out today (Oct 1st) and that also hasn't happened. I bet it will soon say Nov 1st on their website.

Did you happen to check primepokercards.com? 'Cause it's for sale there for 9 euros a pack. Probably has been since September 1st... I knew there was a reason why it wasn't in the NDR anymore.

Hi have bought today a sketch deck. It's very beautifull...Every deck is numbered by hand, into the box there is also a sticker in pvc.
There are 52 cards + 2 jokers + 2 bonus cards, the tuck box was made with a good cardstock.
The decoration of the aces is very very beautifull, the ace of spades and hearts are the best.
Tomorrow I will post some photos

I did check their website and didn't see anywhere to buy them. And no there weren't there since Sept 1st because they changed the date to Oct 1st. Anyway, they must have just added them because I see them now also. I guess I ranted for nothing, lol.

I have no clear idea how long they were up, but they were for sale somewhere or I would have left them in the NDR. They haven't been on it for a good while now, but it looks like I forgot to mention when they went down, 'cause I can't find the post where I state as much.

When you get yours, let us know what you think of them!

Hi massy,

Did you buy it from primepokercards.com please?
I am having problem of checking out! I added 4 decks into the cart and after finding out that shipping cost is 69 euro (DHL) I went and change the number of decks and no shipping method is available to select.
I think their joomla program code is not well written!

Does anyone know if I can purchase this deck from any other site please?
Thanks!

Hi, I live in Rome, and I went directly to pr1me's office. If you have some problem you may write an email to pr1me costumer services, they are so kindly.

Bye

I like my Pr1me cards, so this is a must have for my collection. Hope to see more designs coming out from Pr1me in the future.

Hi DC, i'm luck to live near Pr1me and live in Rome...but is too difficult live in Italy in this times...there are too taxes, corruption, and too cattolic bigots

Anyway...I post two photos, one for ace of spades and one for ace of hearts....this two cards are my favourite. At pr1me explanned me that the ace of spades rappresent the poker gambler....amazing

I'm sorry for my photos...I'm not a good photographer

Conjuring Arts and Tannen’s have teamed up to offer a brand new original and VERY limited edition deck from Pr1me of Rome, Italy.
The new Sketch deck uses the original drawings used in designing the Pr1me series 001 deck, and the result is a totally original and exciting work of art.
This deck is strictly limited and hand-numbered; we have imported only 1,000 decks (with only 1,000 decks being retained in Italy for their market).
The quality is very much like the Pr1me deck, which has a coating that is most similar to the celebrated Jerry’s Nugget cards. They handle beautifully, and their durability allows them to last and last and last. We have noticed that they are slightly softer than the original Pr1me decks, but this should please cardists who prefer cards that aren’t overly firm. We also notice that these cards handle changes in humidity extremely well. We love this deck – its quality, along with its limited availability, makes it a great collectible.

I thought this deck looked really neat! I picked up a few.

Thanks, Knobz, but the topic already exists. Merging them now...

I've received my Sketch Deck and it is as amazing as it looks.
The cards are really beautiful. 52c+2j+1extra.
Like the regular Pr1me deck, the stock and finish makes their handling excellent.
The problem with this and other decks is really the box: doesn't have the same quality of the cards.
I personally consider this deck a must have in any collection.
I leave a photo of part of the deck.

Your welcome Don. And sorry about creating a double topic. My bad.

Hi ruicorreia, i think that the tuck box is very better than the first print of pr1me, I don't see difference to the others playing cards company...maybe i'm not a good observer

Aside from the appearance, what do you think of how the deck handles? Quality of stock, quality of finish, that sort of thing.

Hermione · « **Reply #23 on:** December 04, 2012, 10:28:55 AM »

Aside the design, I think that the quality of this cards is great, the finish is good. The cards are soft...i'm not a professional magician but I think are good for magic tricks.bMaybe I see this cards very beautiful because i'm Italian, but I live UK and when I see something of good that come from my country, i'm so happy.
