Bicycle Standard Index Playing Cards 1 Deck, Colors May Vary (Red or Blue) for Teen Pack of 1

First to all the reviewers who seem to complain that this isn’t plastic - yes, it’s not plastic but much much better. The feel of the cards is excellent. These are the best quality cards you can find and anyone complaining obviously are not aware of the Bicycle brand. Once you use these cards, any other card (especially plastic) will seem inadequate. The special edition cards are beautiful - worth the price. Just go for it.

Best cards but it is not full rectangular shape

It's my first time using these cards .. i am not sure how the original bicycle cards feel like .. i will tell you how this one felt so that you can compare if u have experienced the original one. The cards are made of paper.. a really good quality paper, it has a texture on it .. i have sweaty hands and even though i have held it few times now .. it seems to be the same since i bought it ...

It is definitely the real one. Atleast which I got is real for sure. I saw many people commenting they got bad deck, maybe they faced a bad luck but for me i got the real one for sure. This deck is little bit hard to bend as compare to my old plastic deck but i can tell this deck is worth buying. It is good for performing cardistry. I did many magic tricks perfectly. I would say it's worth buying.

Off late I had wanted to explore cardistry and wished to get started with a basic pack of cards. Some basic research informed me that Bicycle playing cards are an excellent and economical set of playing cards which one can use to get started. I ordered this particular set last week and I must say that they are great. I know some reviews have been claiming that the cards are fake, but the set which I received seem legitimate. The cards are crisp, a little slippery at first (this is expected of any new deck of cards) and a great size. I would highly recommend these cards and am very pleased with my purchase.

I ordered these decks from Amazon and they were delivered in 4 days in great condition. These decks are smooth and light weighted. However after few cycles their quality starts to deteriorate. After which you are not sure if they are original or fake :P However you will enjoy them while they last ! \m/

Cards are good and arrived as promised. I mainly use it for card magic. After 8-9 days the card have become a little sticky and a little difficult to use for flourishing. I expected the life to be longer. Will try another type of deck maybe tally ho.

These decks are of good qualiti and are perfect for me to do magic. Also packing was good and decks came in good condition as well as real decks in affordable price rate. I love doing magic tricks with these cards cause they are good but their price rate was too much in other websites. Thanks for good services.

Standard decks. Exactly what I ordered

Qualité +++

Great set of cards, for good value!

So I read reviews about how Bicycle doesn't sell their cards on Amazon so someone else must be selling fakes for profit. I was very hesitant to buy these for a while until I just had to see for myself. If I didn't like my purchase, I'd return it. When I received them, I studied them carefully and concluded that if they were fakes, they're damn good ones. What leads me to believe they are not fakes is this: whoever took the time to meticulously make these cards so close to the real thing has some serious talent. They've mimicked the card box with the hinge, the seal on the end of the box that says U.S. Playjng Card Company, the cellophane wrap, and, of course the cards themselves with utmost care. I would have to say that if these were fakes, someone working in the very factory itself is making them off-hours or has purchased or stolen all of the materials and machinery to make them. I have seen some knockoff products, such as Benro, be even better than the manufacturer they ripped off (Gitzo). However, to simply give entire credit to the U.S. Playjng Card Company logically doesn't make sense. I suppose there could be differences between the real and the fake that a jeweller might be able to detect, but I'm not a jeweller. I'm just an OCD person who studies things closely. I bought a $4 pack of "real Bicycle cards" for comparison purposes and, you know what? The cards feel exactly the same. "Fake" versus real, they bend like them, rub together smoothly like them, and feel just like them. You know why? Because the "fakes" are real Bicycle cards! Lots of people like to complain about things. You always get that one golden nugget who is never satisfied. He or she can't believe a good deal to be true. I watched a magician on YouTube proclaim that he gets authentic Bicycle cards for about $1.30 a pack, so $15.89 for this 12 pack is basically that price.

Bicycle has always been my go to for cardistry, magic and card games and these cards were no different. Perfect finish and coating I highly recommend for anyone outside the US looking for these amazing cards.
