What Deck Of Cards Lasts The Longest?

BrianKilledYou · Feb 8, 2008

What deck of cards.......

-Lasts the longest (by that I mean in general)

-Stays together, holds together for for a long time (in general)

-edges don't crimp as easily as regular Bikes or Bees...etc

Any recommendations on decks?

Kem plastic cards. LOL. You know how to find them.

If you don't want plastic, ghosts and tallys last a long time.

Do any of you recommend the Masters Deck from E?

I think the Masters deck is alright. If your just doing street magic there's no reason to not use regular bicycles. If your doing more formal performances Masters are nice. depends what your using them for. They are great for fanning, though, too.

If you want to be more descriptive maybe I could help more.

Yes, just for normal performances.
What about the Gaurdians Michael?

The guardians are fan really nicely, in my opinion. However, they tend to get a strange bend which you can get out but they aren't very stiff. Then, that leads to the crimp. I think they're pretty nice though.

The real question is what deck is worth the money

I definitely think they are worth trying out. Just to figure out your own opinion of them.

Thanks for your help Michael, I think I made up my mind now ^_^\

I'm not trying wynns because the box is just bad... there is like a thin peice of plastic type window on the box... I don't know why that is even there.

Guardians. The clear window on the Wynn box is because they were used for casinos... casinos do that.

The window is there for security and other purposes made for the Casino. Keep in mind they were made for the Wynn Casino in Las Vegas. I'm not positive but it is for some purpose of the Casino.

Also, I don't like the Brown Wynns to much. I think you might want to try out the Red and Purple/Blue Wynns.

Please feel free to PM me if you have any other questions.

I understand, that is very annoying... walking around with a hole in your card box...

If you're looking for stiff cards try Carta Mundi cards and Fournier 202. I have a Carta Mundi Ace-deck of cards, and fans almost as well as USPC-cards. Fourniers don't fan as well, but you should give them a try.

Are you kidding me? I bought a deck of carta mundi's and there crap. Worst 2$ I've ever spent.

you can make a deck last very long depending how many times you wash your hand's or don't drops cards.

Otherwise buy some tally-ho's.

go to www.filmart.com and look up tally-ho and they have a brick (12) of deck's for something like 19$
