Bicycle Prestige Playing Cards (Pack of 2)

Cards arrived wrapped in bubble wrap inside an envelope. Opened the package to find two decks as expected.However, the decks were shrink wrapped without any hint of a storage box. Nothing!I now have two decks of loose cards. Be prepared to make a run to a local hobby shop or other source to buy some kind of cheap case.The cards themselves seem to be good cards. They shuffle easily though are a bit slick which these type cards tend to be.Product picture which clearly appears to show cards sitting in a plastic case is very misleading.Amending review after using once. Found the cards were really bad about picking up hair and other debris making them really unpopular very quickly.

Too bad these don't come with a box otherwise these cards would easily be 5 stars. These are very similar to Kems. In terms of durability and cost I see these cards as the best value on the web provided they are not deliberately abused and played on felt or a tablecloth. The cards are very resistant to color bleed and warp which are the downfall to other major brands. I have approximately 1400 hours of play time on 4 decks and only 2 cards are obviously marked through wear. The only drawback to these cards as they are thinner/lighter and more difficult to pitch. Modiano plastics ( not acetates) are the easiest to pitch

These are great. I have experience with a few different kinds of plastic cards, all a lot more expensive. People complaining about the lack of boxes need to take a look at what they're getting. I don't know if it's just the narrow cards, jumbo index that come with no boxes, but I bet it is, because they're a lot cheaper than the other options.Know what? I have card boxes from beat decks and paper decks that I can use for these.Again, these are great plastic cards. Not too thick, not too thin. And they have a textured finish to them that feels great and I think maybe reduces slipperiness. Buy them and you won't be disappointed. Unless you don't know anything about plastic card, or unless you're a card box freak.

Bought this set to take on the road with us while camping. We use a similar set at home and really like them. First I was surprised at the length of time it took for them to arrive. Second when they did arrive it was two decks wrapped in cellophane and that was it. No case as the picture shows! Not even a cardboard sleeve! Plastic cards are slippery to begin with and require a case of some sort! Rubber bands will split them over time. Will never purchase from this seller again!

I don't think these are bicycle cards.i also have the bicycle cards and they feel different and are more durable. These cracked and broke the first time I was playing with them.Admittedly a player threw the cards down (when her got owned by me) but the cards shattered. Which shouldn't bee surprising. But we honestly do that all the time with the genuine bicycle cards, and they have held up really really well.Bicycle cards that we got for $7 each pack. Lasted 3 months playing every day.These cards.....1 day.......I have two stars because technically we were rough with them. Else it absolutely wouldd have been 1 star.

This is my favourite feeling plastic deck. I like cellulose acetate but every one I've tried came warped or warped over time. These are durable, the ink is pretty thick and doesn't seem like it will fade anytime soon, and they feel great. I'm not a fan of the backs, too intricate, and the face card/s numbers are fairly boring, but this is the best deck for the price. I'm not even mad that they're not in the box, I just use a gemaco tuck case from some decks I got for free at the casino. I have ordered some Faded Spade cards to have in rotation, but these can't be beaten for what you get from my experience. I just wish the face and backs were redesigned using the same stock

My decks are used about 80 hours a year and, since I started using plastic cards, I typically need to replace them only once a year. I have previously used Copag and Modiano plastic cards, both of which are excellent, but these Bicycle Prestige cards are the best. They share the long life and durability of the other plastic cards, but the Bicycles have a much softer feel and shuffle more easily - more like paper cards. Given that they are all close in price, these are my new standard for top quality playing cards.

I like these cards some of the best I have found, however i started ordering them over a year ago and they just keep going up in price, started at 8 for a double pack and not almost 18
