that is correct. The People's Republic of China is China, while Taiwan's official name is The Republic of China. so, PRC = China, and ROC = Taiwan. ah, politics.
Hopefully they haven't figured out a way around The Great Firewall or we may have a sudden flood of VIP decks available online.. not being trying to sound nationalist or racist here, just saying.. lol different copyright laws
I am so glad that I got a hold of these cards when I was in VIP at his show. Not only is it one of the rarest decks of cards but these will always remind me of my David Blaine experience and I can't wait to crack the marking system. It was also pretty amazing that you got to perform Voodoo for David Blaine and you have a badass souvenir.
Great review. I’d love to see more content based around cards like you used to do. Paste boards is crazy good. And I know the market is saturated with card reviews etc. but your unique spin on everything you do is really captivating
I've watched a bunch of your videos and I gotta say, your shooting, lighting, and editing, is quality stuff! I'm legitimately impressed! I've tried video, myself, it's tough. I always appreciate seeing talented people doing quality work.
Chris, I am a senior citizen. Your puzzle videos have made me use parts of my brain that has been dormant for years ! Thanks a lot. I feel your IQ is above the norm...lol
*To be fair, you have to have to have a very high IQ to understand Chris Ramsay. Without a solid grasp on theoretical physics the jokes would go right over your head*
@Minerguy, your comment is as dumb as you are. Youre probably the same person who thinks you need to be smart to understand Rick & Morty. its not that thats the case, its just that you have very low expectations of yourself, and that you are projecting.
I was a bit confused by this deck; original tuck, unoriginal design. I have an unseen db deck that I'll be reviewing that is quite similar in principal - looks good on the outside!
No deck should cost the same as a good weekend in Vegas..lol.. looking forward to your bg giveaway!! Keep up the good fight still my favorite TH-cam channel!
Nice review. Got 2 of his signed VIP decks, when I met him during his tour to Seattle, and have been itching to open 1, just to see what they were like, but you just helped me find out. Thank you!
“I’m not gonna spend 600 dollars for anything regarding playing cards. Mind you I might spend a 1000 dollars on a puzzle but that’s just me, and I’m mentally deficient.” Chris Ramsay - 2018
What's the name of the song playing in the background...? 5:55 is the time i checked (i cant find the name anywhere and the epidemic sound doesn't work... sad...)
The only Superior deck I bought clumped so quick, I could believe it. It actually made me mess up quite a few tricks. That stopped once I went back to USPCC. Blue or red (and black if I can find it) back bicycles are my go to decks.
I saw David during the first leg of his tour in 2017 & he had the Observers available. They have the same box as these but the back design is two DB logos & the Ace of Spades has an Eagle on it.
Like they say on Pawn Stars, "You can ask whatever you want but doesnt mean youre gonna get it." This is a $600 ask for deck not a $600 sold for deck. That is all. Lol
Oh, so it's exactly like 3 other decks that I already own. I like EPCC mostly because they try different things. There is no surprise when opening a USPCC deck. With EPCC you have some different options to choose from.
I saw Blaine in the meet and greet when he came and performed in San Jose. I got the tour edition and im still trying to figure out the marking system. Any other clues anyone?
Dear chris, I love magic and have been doing card tricks for almost 6 years now and i want to do different types of tricks like Decibel and other things of that nature, but I dont have the money to spend on such things. What recommendation do you have for someone wanting to learn other great mindblowing tricks but without having to spend money just to do something i love.
hi Chris! idea for a video: "REVEALS" .... i've been looking everywhere on the internet and i can't find anywhere that compiles common (or uncommon) reveals. this would address the question "i've controlled the card to the top (or bottom) of the deck.. NOW WHAT?" this type of content would help those of us who know how to control a card, but end up stuck doing the same tired reveals and color changes over and over. Hope you're able to read this and consider my idea. thanks, chris!
Man Lee I'm not him but my name is Chris too so I'll tell ya. You start off with something small. I started with the triple swing false cut. It's really simple and easy but it looks nice. Practice your fingers movements and strength and learn more complicated ones as you get better.
I bought "the royal road to card magic" on amazon, its not that much into cardistry but it gives a REALLY good baseline undertandment of the simplest stuff you can do (and still do wonders) with cards. but mostly its just practising one thing over and over and over and over again!
Oh man,I have a desire for cardistry and card tricks but I have only one deck whic costs 1$.I am from Turkey and there is no high quality Made In Turkey deck so if I want to get cool decks,I must get'em from foreign countries.But there is a problem because you know 5TL(Turk Liras)=1$ so this means if I want to get decks,I must spend my whole money on my hand(maybe a little more).But this not means I can't make card tricks.I love you Chris and I always following you because you are very simple in tutorials but very complicated in show.Also I learned color monte from you and that move is really really coool man.Thanks for this (Also PRC means China)
When Chris said he is coming to Germany i was like " Whaaat, Wow. What are the chances that he is coming to my homecountry!" and then he said to south West Germany and I was like:" oh almost the opposite side of the country :/" Anyway enjoy your stay. Best regards, German Fan and magician in Training.
Chris - this isn't an "EPCC" thing, it's the printer that they used. The Taiwan printer is awesome (TPCC) but this deck was made in Shanghai. For some reason Bill, David and Jackson have used them in the past - maybe because it's cheaper to print in China? That's my guess.
Is there a deck of cards you hold so dear that you would not handle and just keep it in the shelf? Or are you of the the idea that cards are to be played with regardless of the cost or rarity? Thanks and keep the vids coming.
You should do more deck reviews man... I know you don’t like to but you go so much more in to detail about the subtleties in the cards and compared to all the other people on TH-cam that do deck reviews you just generally do a much better job at actually providing a good review. It would be nice to get more of that.
The two tuck cases are not identical - look at the skulls at 2:53 One case has empty black space around the skulls, the other has gold patterning. Very obvious I think? Also the border of the patterning is quite different.
This man is solely responsible for increasing classic playing card fandom.
My collection has reached 100+ decks. Ramsay definitely created this monster
Made in P.R.C" equals "Made in China" , "People's Republic of China" 2:34
Ahhh, thanks for the clarification 👌
Do you by chance know a mia khalifa
Linda Smith kick rocks linda
that is correct. The People's Republic of China is China, while Taiwan's official name is The Republic of China.
so, PRC = China, and ROC = Taiwan.
ah, politics.

“I’m not gonna spend 600 dollars for anything regarding playing cards."
One year later: buys a LV deck which cost $600
800
The video also got like 1.2m views. That's at least like 3500+ in ad revenue alone. So, it's more of an investment.
Then buys a $20,000 puzzle
That's because he's rich now
thats investment

how do we know this isnt a magic trick and he doesnt actually have this deck at all?
Mind blown
The song name is isla del sol by henyao if you guys wondering
Don't even know this youtuber but just for the editing alone he gets a like.
Quality content.
I prefer steel ones :D
Haha I get it
Chris, I am a senior citizen. Your puzzle videos have made me use parts of my brain that has been dormant for years ! Thanks a lot. I feel your IQ is above the norm...lol
emi1chin liar u used lol

I've transitioned from puzzles to cards. I've just bought a deck. Your passion is contagious, seriously.
Get into chess you wont regret it
What deck did you buy?
Hey,how are you doing now
He got me into both. But have to wait for money or save
I love that “play” light😍
I was a bit confused by this deck; original tuck, unoriginal design. I have an unseen db deck that I'll be reviewing that is quite similar in principal - looks good on the outside!
"Tuck Case": what a way to upsell a box.
Your videos are always filmed very very well! Great job with depth of field and colors! Very pleasing to the eye! The slow mo shots are beautiful!
No deck should cost the same as a good weekend in Vegas..lol.. looking forward to your bg giveaway!! Keep up the good fight still my favorite TH-cam channel!
$600 isn't even getting you a good DAY in Vegas...
BroskyWhoDatedHoski BroskyWhoDatedHoski yeah, you have to be ready to lose all your money when gambling
extended walrus No Hotel and you are fine.
Just be glad it's the whole deck that costs that much. We in the TCG community bear the pain of single cards costing half to double that.
You are very cheap lol
Congrats on 1,000,000! You deserve it
Actually The Superior seems Better, The Black & Silver combo! ✌🏻
I recently found you on my recommended videos. Quarantine is so much more bearable when binge watching your content. Thank you! :D
"The rarest deck I own is one that I have not acquired yet"
Max Diamond then you don't own it
Woosh
zSNAX lastTAP thats why its the rarest
Buuuut you said you own it??????
uh jeff he doesn't own the deck yet he said he does
A deck with marking system you need to solve by yourself with clues in the deck is so cool in my opinion. Like a puzzle in itself.
Do I hear birds chirping in the background? :)
ahhh my go to deck review channel :D
TheGentlemanWake no the birds are chipping where you live
He's right the birds are chirping at 7:25
yep...
Nah, you must be livin' in the forest.
Very nice! That's a high quality deck! btw, keep up the good work Ramsay! Been watching and loving your content for a very long time!
I fricken love deck reviews man
You reply on all of this guys videos 😂
Me too! I like making them! :)
Nice review. Got 2 of his signed VIP decks, when I met him during his tour to Seattle, and have been itching to open 1, just to see what they were like, but you just helped me find out. Thank you!
Ace_K_82 I’m jealous af xD
imagine accidentally folding one of those cards lol
I could watch you reviewing decks of cards for days
“I’m not gonna spend 600 dollars for anything regarding playing cards.
Mind you I might spend a 1000 dollars on a puzzle but that’s just me, and I’m mentally deficient.”
Chris Ramsay - 2018
This deck is so cool!! I love it. I also love how cleaver all of the additional reveals and the marking system. That’s one amazing deck!!!
What's the name of the song playing in the background...? 5:55 is the time i checked (i cant find the name anywhere and the epidemic sound doesn't work... sad...)
Isla Del Sol - Henyao You can find it here, on TH-cam. It took me forever to find out what it was. lol
The only Superior deck I bought clumped so quick, I could believe it. It actually made me mess up quite a few tricks. That stopped once I went back to USPCC. Blue or red (and black if I can find it) back bicycles are my go to decks.
Have you checked out the Neil Patrick Harris deck? Did you solve the riddle in them?
did you? I am stuck on that frickin cassette since months..
vino 693 did you translate the Russian text on the cassette?
I love that deck
My favorite was the silver one. It would look so cool when you do that thing where you shoot the cards from one hand to the other.
Btw it's amazing that u always upload EU friendly 😇
It's TH-cam, what does it matter?.
I saw David during the first leg of his tour in 2017 & he had the Observers available. They have the same box as these but the back design is two DB logos & the Ace of Spades has an Eagle on it.
That is awsome!! 🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑
Can you do a deck review of the Arkana decks? From Brian Brushwood
I just recently discovered your videos by clicking on a puzzle video in my recommendations and I’m not disappointed! I love your videos!
Like they say on Pawn Stars, "You can ask whatever you want but doesnt mean youre gonna get it."
This is a $600 ask for deck not a $600 sold for deck.
That is all. Lol
I could watch those card tricks all day
“And they come with jokers”
My reaction=🙃 the hell
I had to make my own for 1000 Euro:
Slight color change in background and symbols,etc.
Add in random knave(Tau) cards,ace names,etc.
I threw a like and a L as well. Always great videos
I like to check out the Queen, King, Jack everytime I get a deck.
Man love the hair!
7:26 how and what is this effect
Under pressure or something idk what its called exactly
it’s called a pressure fan
i might be a little late lol but its called under pressure. If you want to learn it, its best you learn the pressure fan first.
Oh, so it's exactly like 3 other decks that I already own. I like EPCC mostly because they try different things. There is no surprise when opening a USPCC deck. With EPCC you have some different options to choose from.
How I wish I could have that deck of cards, so lit 💯
You should squeeze in a short visit to Hamburg!!! That'd be amazing Chris! Love your content :D
I saw Blaine in the meet and greet when he came and performed in San Jose. I got the tour edition and im still trying to figure out the marking system. Any other clues anyone?
Check Chris' videos on the white lions.. hope that helps
The white lions deck has a white line so this one must have a line element
The color variation on the different decks looks like a reference to gold, silver and bronce.
I can’t imagine that people would rather pay 600$ than 8$ just for a VIP stamp at the top of a box
Deck review vids are my favs. your reviews got me into card collecting. I now own a a few hundred
Meet up in the Uk?
I love the hair here too! I love the normal colour too!
Omg I’m literally freaking out I have the deck from his tour and it’s signed by him I got it for free 😂😂
Liar
r/thathappened
Sure buddy
@@robenkhoury7079 don't link to subreddits outside of reddit. Idiot
Dear chris,
I love magic and have been doing card tricks for almost 6 years now and i want to do different types of tricks like Decibel and other things of that nature, but I dont have the money to spend on such things. What recommendation do you have for someone wanting to learn other great mindblowing tricks but without having to spend money just to do something i love.
The Excalibur puzzle?????
hi Chris! idea for a video: "REVEALS" .... i've been looking everywhere on the internet and i can't find anywhere that compiles common (or uncommon) reveals. this would address the question "i've controlled the card to the top (or bottom) of the deck..

Hope you're able to read this and consider my idea. thanks, chris!
Please come to the netherlands!!!!
Did my man just call out Taiwan as a country!?! (2:31)
Hell yes, Ramsay! I sub'd just for that.
I will send you a photo of david Blaine in chicago tour performance and you send me a deck. Deal?👍
Nancy Anderson lmfao

Must be signed
MAKE THIS A SERIES! DO MORE DECK REVIEWS #RAMFAM
Any give away😛😂😂
Just joking😀
Just found this channel yesterday and then this get posted
Chris how do I start cardisty
Man Lee I'm not him but my name is Chris too so I'll tell ya. You start off with something small. I started with the triple swing false cut. It's really simple and easy but it looks nice. Practice your fingers movements and strength and learn more complicated ones as you get better.
I started with "decmber boys simple one handed cuts" and just went from there. Thats just me
I bought "the royal road to card magic" on amazon, its not that much into cardistry but it gives a REALLY good baseline undertandment of the simplest stuff you can do (and still do wonders) with cards. but mostly its just practising one thing over and over and over and over again!
Ace of Magic nice advice...
I too started with this..
Then learn one hand cut..
Then one hand fan..
Start simple work to more complexity practice LOTS
I love how you edit ur vids and the music u use. Cool af
#ramafam 💙💙
I know the Marking System of this Deck.
David Blaine's
Skull & bones deck.
One of the best Decks.
That is one seriously fresh deck! Matte Black for life!
Man hooked on your channel . Love the content .props
I am curious to hear what you think of MINT playing cards, both the feel of them and the marking system.
I just wanna say you are the most inspirational magician I've ever seen
Been here since 50k subs bro keep up the amazing work👍😂
Oh man,I have a desire for cardistry and card tricks but I have only one deck whic costs 1$.I am from Turkey and there is no high quality Made In Turkey deck so if I want to get cool decks,I must get'em from foreign countries.But there is a problem because you know 5TL(Turk Liras)=1$ so this means if I want to get decks,I must spend my whole money on my hand(maybe a little more).But this not means I can't make card tricks.I love you Chris and I always following you because you are very simple in tutorials but very complicated in show.Also I learned color monte from you and that move is really really coool man.Thanks for this (Also PRC means China)
idgaf about cards yet chris makes this interesting
Really like your videos Chris Ramsey. Favorite videos are your vlogs
I literally just love your channel bro. Watching your video's every single day, and keep doing what you doing. :)
Cool! Got the same regular superior deck when I saw his show in Toronto ,but it’s signed
congrats on 1 million
Great stuff chris. I drop everything when i notice your videos are out. Enjoy germany. Danke
People forget about Hanson chein playing card company, and they have amazing quality, akin to cartamundi, and uspcc too.
Cool video thanks Chris! When I hit the power ball tomorrow I will buy a deck! :)
When Chris said he is coming to Germany i was like " Whaaat, Wow. What are the chances that he is coming to my homecountry!" and then he said to south West Germany and I was like:" oh almost the opposite side of the country :/" Anyway enjoy your stay.

So awesome you‘re coming here to germany🔥 hope it‘s not too far from Berlin. I will defenetly drive out to get the chance to meet you!
Nice bud. Digging the cinematography on this who was behind the camera?
Another dope vid by my favorite youtuber.
pls help me with this mysteamrewards. com/?id=jCd5CQh8 just make sure to erase the spaces between the // and mysteam and in . com this is not a scam
Chris I wonder do you happen to know the secrets of the gatorbacks? trying to find it for a while but I still not got it!
I just bought the last deck of blue monarchs in stock on Amazon and I'm really excited
There were none on Amazon so I got my one on chaos cards
Is there a deck of cards you hold so dear that you would not handle and just keep it in the shelf? Or are you of the the idea that cards are to be played with regardless of the cost or rarity? Thanks and keep the vids coming.
Chris Ramsey Without a HAT.
I like how he is not wearing shoes it's great to be comfortable at work or home
I have a rare deck of cards - from the MIT treasure puzzle hunt this year. Not the sort of puzzles you normally solve but maybe of interest?
You should do more deck reviews man... I know you don’t like to but you go so much more in to detail about the subtleties in the cards and compared to all the other people on TH-cam that do deck reviews you just generally do a much better job at actually providing a good review.

I hate weighted decks they don't come off the fingertips well. The Virts FW17 has such nice handling
Above 600 dollars for a deck card. WoW. THUMBS UP.👍👍👍
The two tuck cases are not identical - look at the skulls at 2:53 One case has empty black space around the skulls, the other has gold patterning. Very obvious I think? Also the border of the patterning is quite different.
Can you do a short video just on the marking system? Just like how you did for the white lines- white lions*.
Just bought a deck of the those bois! He’s selling them now on his website
Chris, you gotta check out the Mint playing cards by 52Kards.
