I have heard numerous negative comments about this deck but I am looking forward to picking it up. I plan on ordering it Friday. I purchased a Black Vision deck last year for around $20. Not sure if it was a good pick or what it's value is now but I always liked it.

For once I actually think that the reprint looks better than the first edition!

Negative? Where?  I haven't heard anything negative.  What specifically?

Yeah, they didn't stay in stock too long, maybe a few months and gone.  Was it only a 1000-deck print run for the first?  I know this one is 2,500, so perhaps it'll be around for a little while.


Anyone know if they're planning a new Vision show to go with the new deck?

I didn't get them from magic castle, just from another guy who doesnt want me to reveal his identity to others.

Received my deck today and thought I'd share some pics. I thought I'd save bandwidth and upload them to a seperate site, so find them here.

I don't have the black version of this deck, so I can't compare. My own opinion is that it's a nice deck - nothing spectacular about it. The back design and Ace of Spades is pleasing to the eye with the white works very well, I think.

Handling wise - it's a Bicycle, air-cushion deck. It handles like one. I'm not a fan of giving too much attention to handling.

I'd say that given the fact that this deck is just 'nice' and the standard faces, I would just use this deck as standard. I like using the Bicycle Ghost deck as standard and it has non-standard pip colours. However, the price of this deck makes it pretty hard to justify using it as a standard, every day deck. So, I guess I'll use it from time to time, but mostly it'll just sit in its box.

In other words, it's a lot like most brand new decks straight out of the box!  :))

It was always more about the cool back design with the first Vision deck than anything else.  The fact that it was a limited edition was icing on that cake.  It would seem the same is true of the second one.

My current everyday decks are USPC Guardians and Bicycle Split Spades blue stripper.  Why?  They were common enough at the time I purchased them.  It's hard to use a limited edition model for everyday - the everyday deck is the one that gets handled by half of creation, used under less than pristine conditions, etc.  I'm probably going to swap out my Guardians with Karnival Death Heads as soon as I can find a decent leather card case to put them in - the Fournier box is too flimsy.  At least I can wash Death Heads when they get dirty.

If anyone in Singapore still need some, i just got a brick of these from the auntie in Golden Landmark. Her stock just came in, the prices are slightly less than the US Ebay resellers and you can save on shipping.
