Feedback on these three decks

Unread post by That Filthy Casual »

Hello everyone. Sorry if this is the wrong sections of the forum to post this. Could figure out if it went elsewhere.

So, I'm about to buy the following decks:

Come Playing Cards - UFO / Aliens / space ship motif

NOCtober - Halloween NOC cards

Mystical Pirates - as the name explains

I just want to know if anyone here has any of these decks and can give their opinion on the quality?
I have looked up videos for some of them, but they don't go into enough detail regarding the quality.
Especially the Mystical Pirates deck - it captured me as soon as I saw it, but I've read that they were produced in China and that the quality is terrible. Presumably that plastic-y, slidy feel?

We have a thread here about Come

Which Mystical Pirates deck do you mean? As far as I know this one was never manufactured...

Thanks for that. I used the search, but I didn't come across anything regarding the Come deck.

As for the Mystical Pirate decks, someone is claiming to sell them here:

But looking at it, there aren't any actual photos.

Those are out (I see them at various trusted stores), but the comments on the kickstarter were less than stellar, both for delivery and for print quality.

Well that's certainly disappointing as a backer who never received a deck :lol:

Thanks for that. So, they were eventually released, but the quality is apparently naff, though nobody really elaborates on how.
In the meantime, I contacted the seller in the link, and he refuses to take photos of the actual deck he's selling. I see this as a red flag and will give up on this deck, and from buying the other two mentioned from him for the time being. Thanks for the information, everyone!
