Hey guys! I'm in the process of making some big life changes and that means I unfortunately can't hold on to my personal collection of decks. While I am keeping my vintage decks for now, my personal collection consists of many of the rarest decks from 2005-2011. I'll be selling them at a competitive price!

Dr Leon Yellow Playing Cards x1 - $10
Sealed in perfect condition.

Tally-Ho Viper Fan Back UV500 x2 - $12 each
Sealed in perfect condition.

Expert At The Card Table Deck 1st Edition x1 - $25
These are the ones that have the card backs printed on the tuck case.
Sealed in perfect condition.

Expert At The Card Table Deck 2nd Edition x1 - $25
These are the ones that have the green tuck case all around.
Sealed in perfect condition.

Walgreens Standard Playing Cards x1 - $3
Sealed in perfect condition

Multimiller Gargoyles Expo Deck x1 - $50
Sealed in perfect condition.

Imperial Playing Cards x1 - $20
Made in China, they're not very good for fans but great for cuts.
Sealed in perfect condition.

Bicycle Leaf Back Green x1 - $3
The rarest deck in existence. Worth over $9000. But it could be yours for three easy payments of $1.00.
Sealed in perfect condition.

Bicycle Galvanic (signed) x1 - $11
From Sean Whelan, signed by Sean Whelan.
Sealed in perfect condition.

Bicycle Holiday Back Gift Set w/Tin Case x3 - $35 each
These are the vintage Bicycle Holiday gift sets. They're either from the 80s or 90s. They come in a tin case as well as a paper pouch thing.
Sealed in Perfect condition.

Smoke & Mirror v1 Black x1 - $90
The one that started it all, this is the first S&M deck to ever exist.
These are NOT the reprints.
Sealed in perfect condition.

Smoke & Mirror Luxury Black x3 - $40 each
These are NOT the reprints.
Sealed in perfect condition.

Smoke & Mirror Luxury White x1 - $40
These are NOT the reprints.
Sealed in perfect condition.

Smoke & Mirror v4 w/Seal x3 - $40 each
These are the ONLY S&M decks to have a custom seal on them. The v4's were released in three editions. The first had the seals, the second had no seals, and the third were the recent reprints. These are the sexy seal-having ones. :D
Sealed in perfect condition. I've overused the word seal. Don't go clubbing baby seals.

Smoke & Mirror v5 x9 - $18 each
These aren't the reprints.
Sealed in perfect condition.

Smoke & Mirror v6 x6 - $11 each
These aren't the reprints.
Sealed in perfect condition.

Diamond Jim Tyler Deck x1 - $10
Before his Doomsday deck, DJT had released this non-USPCC deck with themes very similar to the Doomsday deck. I actually was the one that discovered these cards!
These are sealed in perfect condition.

Theory11 Propoganda v1 x1 - $30
These are the discontinued ones!
Sealed in perfect condition.

Ellusionist Black Ghost 1st Edition UV500 x3 - $85
Ahh the original super-rare modern deck.
These are sealed in perfect condition. Note that these decks never existed with USPCC cellophane, and have Ellusionist's own custom cellophane instead.

Ellusionist White Ghost 1st Edition UV500 x4 - $25
Back before whatever Ghost decks they're selling now, Ellusionist had what was arguably the best handling modern deck. The v1 White Ghost features UV500 finish, still printed in Cincinnati.
Sealed in perfect condition.

Ellusionist Red Artifice - $40
Sealed in perfect condition.

Vortex Prototype One Deck - $55
The sealed Prototype Two deck sold on Kickstarter for over $200. This is the first prototype of the Vortex deck. The cards were hand cut by USPCC and are printed on a much thicker card stock with a really interesting finish. The cards feature the original super-thin border. You can see the Proto One deck in action here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=30RjNPSZ_MY
This deck is not sealed. It's opened an slightly used.

Gemaco Sun Cruz Casino Deck x1 - $3
Sealed in perfect condition.

David Blaine White Lions Series A Blue x3 - $30 each
The first White Lions to  hit the public!
Sealed in perfect condition.

Magic Con v1 x2 - $75 OBO
Couldn't find these on eBay but these are the first magic con decks released by D&D.
Sealed in perfect condition.

Bicycle Vision Black - $25
The rarest of the Vision decks.
Sealed in perfect condition

Vortex Playing Cards - $50 per 6
I'm only selling these in half-bricks.
Sealed in perfect condition, signed upon request.

Bicycle New Fan Back WHITE Edition x3 - $45
Unlike the black edition, these are extremely rare.
Sealed in perfect condition.

If An Octopus Could Palm Deck x12 - $40 each
These were only sold with the IAOCP book by Dan & Dave. I found only one listing on eBay for $50!
These are sealed in perfect condition.

Black Crown Deck x9 - $12 each
I'm not sure if more versions of these came out or not, but these are the original ones. I don't own any reprints, because I find reprints appalling. :P
These are sealed in perfect condition.

Ellusionist Red LTD x5 - $25 each
Again, these are the originals.
These are sealed in perfect condition.

Theory11 JAQK Cellars Misprint x1 - $20
Same deck as above, but the tuck case art and embossing is shifted over by about a centimeter. The cards inside are not affected (tuck cases are printed separately from decks). This is one of a kind, and these misprints happen extremely rarely!
These are sealed in perfect condition.

Red Crown Deck First Edition x1 - $10
Again, screw reprints! These are the first decks ever released by The Blue Crown.
These are sealed in perfect condition

David Blaine's Series A Red Set - $250 Only One Left!
I can't even find them on eBay so I have no idea what to price them at now. Only 100 of these sets were ever made, so that's 200 decks total.
One deck is signed by David Blaine in each set, the other is sealed. They have a gold tear-away strip and a gold seal.
You will get set #99 or #100, or both if you buy them both. They come with a card signed by Jamie D. Grant signifying which set it is.
Each set comes in a black collector's case that has the Split Spade logo etched on the top.
These are sealed in perfect condition.
These are probably some of the rarest modern decks in existence, as less than 100 people in the world own them.

Ellusionist Bicycle Masters UV500 Red and Blue - $2 each
I am only selling these to people who buy at least $20 worth of stuff.
These are sealed in perfect condition.

Alex, if I'm not mistaken, those White Lions Series A Red sets are from the AIP Bottle, right?

If that's the case, then in each set one of the tuck boxes contains a red deck, while the other contains a PURPLE deck - a transition color that USPC allow David to make by not interrupting the print run for the blue deck and transitioning to the red.  As such the color will be uneven, even from card to card in the same deck.  I've seen an uncut sheet of these in David's office and they're VERY cool.

Well the boxes are red, I'm not sure what's inside and I'm not willing to find out by opening them. :P

The red deck was also available in David's first "Variety Box" while the purple deck was never made available anywhere other than with the AIP bottles.

Hahaha yeah, customs tore the package open for inspection, tossed it in some plastic bag, wrote a sorry note on it and sent it to him.

Posting in here so the public knows. I sent payment on June 4th for 17 decks for $300. I have yet to receive anything. Xela has stated that he accidentally put my address as the send to address and his address as the destination, resulting in him receiving the package back at his home. This was last week.

On June 17, Xela stated "I'll reship tomorrow with priority mail so it gets to you within 2-3 days. I'll put in an extra deck too if there's room in the priority mail box. >.<". Meaning he would ship priority on June 18, and it should be here on 20-21, at latest the 23rd.

Today is June 23, and I have yet to receive anything. No tracking number either, on the first attempted sending or this one. I have initiated a PayPal case, but am hoping this can be solved amicably. If I receive the items this week, I will close the case and drop my complaint, but this is kind of ridiculous.

Please be aware of this before purchasing. If I am censored here, it's okay, I have saved all messages and proof.

Why would you be censored?  Alex no longer owns the forum and is not on the staff.  I think of him as a friend but it's not the first time such a complaint has arisen.

My only suggestion is one you're already taking: try to settle the issue amicably if possible.

Check your PMs. :P I don't log into here that often, sorry.

For anyone wondering, the package was reshipped with priority shipping for no additional cost (since it was my fault the package was RTS) and I included extra decks as well for the hassle.

I document every shipment I make with photos of the ENTIRE shipping process, as well as keep all of the stuff USPS gives me.

And Don, I'd appreciate it if you didn't imply that I ever censored the forum. Two people have been banned under my watch, both of which were antagonistic spammers and one of which had over a dozen alternate accounts. No posts have ever been deleted while I was admin either.

I never meant to imply any such thing.  I'm sorry if you perceived my comment that way.  I was simply commenting on how the buyer thought his comments would be censored and assured him that no such thing would take place.  The only posts I delete are ones that were "vacated" by the author and deleted at his/her request, or STISO topics that violate board rules.  Oh, and blatant spam.

Hey Guys,

I know I'm somewhat new to the "staff" here so I don't know of all of the past occurrences/drama on these forums, but fortunately that makes me pretty impartial to this matter. What I do know that I'd prefer not to have unnecessary drama in this section of the forum. CBJ, if you didn't want to get into it then you shouldn't have brought it up... If you must continue any discussion of this topic, do so in private. If it is a large enough problem that you think the forum should be aware of, please post it in the Fraud Alert Topic.

Thanks!
Nick
