I just bought one of these decks recommended by a friend.Now that I have it and showed it to several magician friends,they all spotted the marks on the back right off.
For those that don't know the marks are a good inch high on the back.I'm not sure now if I want to use them.My question is if any of you have a deck have you ever been nailed with them? Thanks, Don |

Have not used mine a ton but have not been nailed either. It is ballsy though. And you have been around long enough to know that magicians know where to look first.

Not sure what you mean by "showed it to several magician friends". Do you mean you said, "here, check these out.. can you find the markings?" or even "here, check these out, can you find a special something about these?" Then, sure, they're going to discover the marks.
The deck was originally designed for Henry Evans' stage performance. It wasn't designed for close-up. Having said that, I've used them successfully in closeup a handful of times and no one was the wiser. I drew no particular attention to the cards and no one even thought to scrutinize them.
