Hi!
Are there any cardists in Thailand?
Where can you get decent cards?
The laws in Thailand are ridiculous. Import of cards is forbidden, it is forbidden to own more than 120 playing cards that do not have the official "tax paid" stamp. So I am breaking the law on two counts already.
The only shops I have found that actually sells cards are the 7/11. These cards are 100% plastic. They are incredibly slippery, and using them does not improve matters.
I can't fan them, packets don't stay together, cards slip off unexpectedly, the edges are relatively "sharp", they are stiff, somewhat heavier than paper cards, and I don't like the smell.
They do appear to be quite durable....
If I order from abroad there is the risk that the cards will be confiscated by customs.
Help!
