I've got what may be a silly question but here goes.

Is the fathom deck by ellusionist USPCC? I have a subscriber arguing with me that its not uspcc. He says its it's not because ellusionist is saving money by using a cheaper company and charging normal price which is why the decks stock is thinner, handling not as good compared to other uspcc decks, in his opinion and no seal on the tuck hints it's not

A lot of decks by USPCC don't have seals. I'm 100% sure it's USPCC decks, just by handling it you will know. I've never see any other companies being able to have these air-cushion finish feel.

It's a USPCC deck, why would E try to ruin their rep by printing with someone else?

I do know that there are some in the business that are looking for alternative printers.  But when you get down to it, USPC is the biggest game in this country (the US) and has a lot of loyal fans.

To date, and to the best of my knowledge, Ellusionist hasn't printed any released decks with a company other than USPC.  If you want to know with more certainty, try contacting Jake (Xntrix); he works for E.
