Күн бұрынWhy I spent over $10K on Playing cards...
Here's a question I get alot!
Why do you spend so much money on your playing card collection and why do you buy so many of the same ones?!
Well, I tried to break down my obsession with cards in this video. It falls in to a few categories, like collecting them, buying cards as an investment, cardistry, casual everyday carry and of course to do magic!
Enjoy the video and let me know why you like collecting things!

Dude i started collecting cards like 6 months ago. I have always loved and been easily entertained by playing cards since i was a kid playing WAR with my sister and brother but only recently have i truly been able to appreciate some of these beautiful artworks that have been recently made everything different from the number font style to the beautiful backing of each unique deck. I just recently bought a pair of Royal Reserve from eBay. I mostly get my stuff from ellusionist I'm trying to find different sources theory11 has some pretty good products I've just been always more drawn to ellusionist I'm not sure why. But you have definitely convinced me to become more serious with my collecting and I think I'll be investing more because of you. So thank you Chris I appreciate your videos. By the way I also subscribed.

I even once try to buy from Amazon and as soon as they arrive in the country they destroy is and call me to judge !!!!!!!! so every day you look at your card think about it how lucky you are or how unlucky someone like me that love magic and playing card but just can't get one. peace up bro.

I've always wanted to collect something, and after years of on and off attempts, I've finally realized my potential calling: playing cards! I already have a few unusual ones, though their value is very low, I still think it's cool to have decks with interesting patterns and designs. So researching a bit on KZfaq has inspired me to really try collecting. I don't plan on getting expensive ones to sell or have high monetary value with, I just think it's cool :3

I agree with you for me some decks (normal red blue bicycle) are just for general magic and games. Other decks such as the ghost are great for some tricks, and others are just works of art!

I have a basic 2€ deck for my cardistry and flourishes and because I'm a beginner they're oldness helps. But I really love to buy amazing looking cards. I buy cards for cheap but that look amazing. For example I now have a deck of da Vincis paintings and a deck of 50's ad's. Cards and amazing cardistry just gives me a warm feeling and inspiration to learn.
