Hello Simon, you’ve been quite busy with all the reviews this weekend thank you very much. I agree with Sandra about the lack of suites on the cards, your one review showed us just how many decks do have the suites, I’m glad this one doesn’t have them. The deck is available from Amazon in the U.S. from an independent seller charging $30.95 US free shipping which was about a months wait, then they raised the price to $39.95, I bought it straight from US games $22.95, & $7.70 for for I day shipping and I got it in one day. I’m very happy with the deck, thanks for the review ✌🏻
Really pleased you have received them after they sent you a wrong deck. Hope you love them. I've been waiting for years for a deck like this and I'm loving them. Thanks for the video, always look forward to watching them. 🌈👍❤️🙏
Normally I don’t like playing card decks but this one I do like, I think because it doesn’t have hearts, spades, clubs and diamonds. I know that might be annoying for some people but for me it makes it a usable deck. I might think about getting it 😍❤️
Getting this for sure! I don’t mind the tarot suits instead the playing card ones. You and Kelly of Truth in Story influenced me to buy this lol. Thanks, Simon! 🖤
I love this deck and agree with all your points. I do wonder why U.S. Games made a point of having such expansive borders and indicated red and black suits while omitting to show the hearts, clubs, diamonds, and spades. Those symbols are bolder than the finely outlined tarot symbols which might make playing card games a little rougher on the eyes as well as having to translate them in one's head. I'd love to hear their answer on this. I don't think the guidebook supplies an explanation. One other thing - personally, I think I'd have made the Pages the Jokers and the Knights the Jacks, as pages and jokers seem lowlier ranks in the court than knights. And I love the size, coloring and linework even though the images are smaller than the tarot in a tin.
I know it may be a bit of work, but perhaps you could find or fashion some sort of stickers to add and represent the playing card suits? If that's not desecrating it of course. : )

It’s a lovely little deck, even if you are just using it as a tarot.
I love it when you do the playing card ones, thank you😁😁. I use these for divination a lot.❤❤
You’re welcome ☺️
I agree with you about the missing playing card suit representations. Shame they missed that. 🙏🏼😘💜
It would’ve been so easy to do!
Yay, you got it! Such a cute deck. I hadn’t noticed that they didn’t include the playing card suits, that is a pity.

I enjoyed the black and white portion of the video especially!
Lol, thanks!

Really like this one. It’s in my want list now…! It’s not released here yet I don’t think. (Ordered from Book Depository)
Have this deck.
Just ordered. As I’ve only got little stumpy hands a deck that I will be able to shuffle 😂
Yaaay!
Really like the look of this deck, just wished they had used playing card suites in the minors.
I agree, they missed a trick
Yessss I agree B 💓
I'm glad I came here and saw this. I just canceled my order because I was expecting the suites to be there. Thanks for your comment B!

Oh glory Simon. You know this has given me some ideas 🤔😜
Now if you could do one that incorporates the playing card pips too…. You’d be on to a winner!
That’s actually quite cool!
I love them!
When your playing card tarot looks better than your yellow box tarot...US Games what are you doing 😟
Where were the cards printed?
It says "made in Italy" on the box.
