Got it, really like it.
Would like it even more if there was a bulk deal for 6 or 7 decks, as well as the 13 deck offer. The only teeny tiny thing I was not so keen on, was the extra card with a picture of a moody DMC on it! would have rather had a DB card. |

Price scales so 6 decks are already £4 per deck less than single decks, you save a total of £24 if you buy 6 decks together compared to six single decks.
Obviously the DMC card isn't there to use in performance, the best thing to do is buy a small decorative picture frame, put DMC in it and position him somewhere auspicious in your home for luck. Some Feng Shui experts say his stern visage deflects the spirits that bring bad fortune. Go on, treat yourself. Phill

Great advice re the DMC card, although would you recommend a traditional e.g. pine picture frame, or would a modern chrome/brushed steel frame be more appropriate. Finally, If I hung the picture on a south facing wall with no sharp corners, would the energy and luck be better from a feng shui perspective?! Seriously though, I have struggled with marked decks due to the eyesight not being quite so sharp without glasses, but these are as others have said, visible from a distance. Charlie |

The more I play with these the easier they get to read, this is definitely the best marked deck I have ever used.

I'm not against paying $30 for one deck (including shipping to the US) but is there going to be another option that will perhaps be slightly more reasonable? If not I'll bite the bullet because I think Phill did an amazing job with these, but just thought I'd check first.

Unfortunately Joe there's not a US distributor. The best I can suggest if you know any local guys is you get them on board and place a bulk for a few decks and split the shipping cost that way. Pretty balls solution, sorry!

Unfortunately with the passing of years my eyesight is not as sharp as it once was. However this is just not a problem with Phill's new cards - the identities are large and clear and yet well nigh impossible for others to detect.
The quality too is excellent. I'm really delighted with these and can't wait to get them in use. Very highly recommended. Neil |

This is way better than code/phoenix for my purposes. Even at 30 dollars for US shipping, it's well worth the price. Very clever!

Thanks #magic, glad you like them. I showed a deck to someone new today and as ever it was great to see them flip from being completely unable to see the system to being instantly able to read them (in a dingy bar by candlelight no less!)

I just received my decks.
First of all… they're beautiful, the design, the box, the cards...they handle like butter. If you need to do faro work, however, they're not the best. I hesitated buying them because, frankly, they're not cheap. Shipping costs were almost equal to the cost of the deck. I'm not a collector by any means but I wound up getting them because I'm a fan of Phill and his design work. I certainly didn't buy them for their "special quality"… but MAN! I can say, as a aging man with progressive lenses, that this is-- bar none-- the best m**ked d**k that I have ever used. By "best" I don't mean "cleverest", or "most impossible for spectator to find", I mean my ability to read a card from a distance. I can stand, toss a card down on the table and know which is it. Three to five feet away, no exaggeration. They wound up being a bargain… for me anyway. d

Really liking these as well, as you can be very hands off, unlike some marked decks where you have to hold them a few inches away from your face, even though I got near perfect vision. Only thing I would've wished for would be to be able to read them from a ribbon spread. I know that means that the marking would have to be smaller, but for my eyes that wouldn't have been a problem, but would perhaps have caused some design issues. Maybe even having the markings vertically rather than horizontally? Please change them for me Phill
Anyhoo... Great marked decks! Highly recommended! //Dan |

Why must I open an account for a deck of cards? If I could be directed straight to paypal I would purchase.

Pegasus, sorry about the lack of a guest payment system, just sorted that, the system SHOULD be able to process you as a guest now with no login - let me know if you have any problems.
Rasmus, if you haven't got your deck yet please PM me or email at mitox@phillsmiff.com and I will sort it out. D's Young and Moses, thanks for your kind words, I'm really glad you are finding the decks useful. Dan, the idea of having the system vertical is a nice one, obviously it's too late for these ones, but for future iterations it might be a nice way to handle things? Thanks for the idea. Phill
