Which Deck of Cards Should I Buy?

You should go with the Upper Deck cards I mean Topps are nice but old school. If you really like cards though at least get 1 pack of Donruss and Fleer see what you think of those. Or you could search the post and read one of many reviews. Seriously go with any T11 deck or with BBM Karnivals. My personal favorites are the Bicycle Tsunami decks.
If your new go with your casic rider back Bicycles. You can get them at almost any chain store. They handle well and are not to pricey being that this is new for you you will start out dropping your cards a lot and messing them up trying to perfect your skills. Keep reading the forums on different cards that you like and see what people think while your learning. Above all things STAY AWAY FROM THE TRAGIC ROYALTY deck they are sweet looking but are the worst thing around.
Your choice, really. If you are just starting, I'd say go with standard bikes. They cost less and work great. That way, if you don't stick with it, you'll not regret paying extra for something you won't continue.
If you wanna jump into custom decks and pay extra for the quality, go with whatever you like at first. If you're just starting, the only thing you'll really notice different is how long they last and how thick they are.
If you wanna try a bunch of decks, I'd say pick 2 or 3 from here and get the 6 deck sample pack from ellusionist. With that, you'll get a good feel of most of the custom decks that people like using and you can decide for yourself which you like best.
If you ask about a specific deck, there will be a lot of bias in what people say, because everybody has different preferences. Some people hate ellusionist decks while others swear by them. Others couldn't care less. Everything comes down to preference.

Good decks...
I have always prefered to go with the decks that legends used...I watch old clips of Dai Vernon...erdnase...Elmsley...Ammar...Malone...daryl...and they pretty much all use good old fashion Bicycle...Costco sells a 12 pack for 13 bucks and some change...6 red 6 blue. Granted there may be some improvements in the feel of the cards created by these Split Spades, Propaganda, Centurion decks, but I felt it always safe to stick to decks of cards everybody in the entire world is familiar with.

This is a book, by the way, not a trick. Just do a Google search on it. Full of loads of simple flourishes and tricks. Great for starting out.
