Bicycle Standard Index Playing Cards

These cards are excellent and met my expectations. I bought them for magic and they handle way better than the old deck I was using before. But they are listed here as the Rider Back version, and I got Standard version. I knew this was a problem before buying and I didn't care, the only difference between the two is box design and pip size. (On the Rider Backs the pips are a fraction larger, but this is almost unnoticeable.) So if you're just buying them for basic uses, or you don't care about getting the newest version just for the sake of an update, the typo shouldn't be a problem. However if you are a collector, or you really care about the (slight,) design change, you'd probably be better off ordering from a different source, or contacting the seller. Other then that, the cards are great. They maneuver and slide very well, if you want to maximize their performance make sure your hands aren't too sweaty when you use them.

These were pretty nice and standard cards. I bought them for a gift for my boyfriend's birthday.It is our first birthdays celebrating together. I wrote 52 reasons why I loved him, one on each card. I wrote face down on the card.You can hole punch them and put a binder ring inside, or you can just keep them in the box.I work a lot, so I don't see him often during the week. He reads them frequently and loved it much more than the typical card.

I originally bought these cards for me and a friend, since she was trying to learn a few tricks from me when I used to do a bunch of card tricks. Problem was, I hadn't owned a decent deck of cards for a couple years now, and her deck was missing more than half of the cards. These are very sturdy, and although they're a bit slippery out of the box, a bit of shuffling the cards around helps and makes them much better to handle. I've been rubbing the edges around the cards a lot, and they aren't fraying so far. Definitely worth the price for two decks.

Nice cards, fun to play with! No complaints here.

Good recommend

Ordinary cards. A bit. expensive

These cards were great for playing poker with. I did not win, so I debated on giving them 4 instead of 5 stars...but I can't completely blame them. I opened the pack and there were 52 cards + the throwaway cards. They had the appropriate pictures and suits, so I was able to use them. I would have liked it if the kings would have looked slightly more kingly and the prince slightly more effeminate...oh well, there was not a single Prince Adam in the deck. I was kind of looking for a Joffrey card, but I think it was killed before it made it to my house. The queen cards did not have other family members in the pictures with them, so I determined that the cards were usable.I was really hoping that these would be the cards that would finally allow me to use my Gambit powers...but they didn't, so I'll keep searching...I Garontee it.

Yeah, these are the playing cards that have been around since forever, that don't stick together after awhile, even when they are very worn, that always shuffle and deal smoothly and without grief, that seem to last forever, even when your grandchildren throw them at each other. Good choice. Great price. They are face cards, if you object to that, and they don't have pretty photos on a the back, but they serve their original purpose very well.
