I love them, and I love the fact that they are each different. I don't however like the price:

For $550 for a full pack, I'll really pass, quickly.

But to be fair, there's a lot of work that goes into making them.  The thing is, you can't really look at these as a deck of playing cards so much as they are more of a handmade work of art.  Looked at that way, they're awesome, but still out of my price range for the indefinite future.
