I was looking forward to holding this deck in my hands as soon as possible, but when I finally got
it, I was extremely disappointed.
I give it 5 stars for the marking system and for the marking
of the card faces.
And I take off 3 stars (I would take off more, but the marking system saves
this deck) for the following:
1. The worst quality of paper I have ever encountered in any deck.
Unfortunately, you can't attach photos here, but if you're interested, write to me and I'll send
them to you so that you can clearly see what I am talking about. First, the texture of the paper is
uneven, with large gaps. Second, the paper itself is slightly thinner. Because of this, the cards
wrinkle very easily. They will bend even if you just hold them in slightly damp hands.
2. Price.
This deck costs 3.63 times the price of the Bicycle Standard deck. The price of this deck is
unreasonably high. It does not have a unique design, nor good quality paper. You are paying solely
for the ingenious idea of marking. Everything else is not included in the price.
3. Follows
from point 2. The design of the cards is very simple. The back of the cards is made on the basis of
a free illustration from one of the stock images. The front sides of the cards are also not special,
and the jokers are apparently taken from the design of the cheapest cards and look like a mockery.
That is, the price cannot be justified by the artist's work, because no artist worked on it.
In general, unfortunately, this deck is not worth your money. I do not know, maybe this is a
defective batch. In any case, such a deck will not serve you for long, it will quickly lose its
marketable appearance.
