Wanted 4 color, jumbo index plastic card setups (5 Viewers)

[demonnic]

I've tried Copag 4 color before so preference to any other brand if possible (just to try something new, nothing wrong with the Copags). My players asked about using a 4 color jumbo index setup and I figured I'd see if anyone had some they wanted to let go of here before searching around the rest of the Internet to see what I could find.

Does desjgn have some?

Poker or bridge size?

I’d love some of these as well. I actually prefer copag because they work best in the shuffletech shufflers that we use.

My Amazon and google searches suggest that copag may only sell them with red and blue backs. I have 2-3 tables going during each event, and I like to have different color decks on each table to eliminate the possibility of decks getting inadvertently mixed. I know the posssibility of that is low as long as the two decks on each table are different, but if anyone is aware of copag jumbo index 4-color decks with any other color backs, I’d love to hear about it.

I have heard grumblings to this effect, but have not gone on the elusive hunt for somewhere to actually purchase them yet. They're the ones I'll probably go with if this wanted post doesn't turn up something available.

Either is fine, we're in the "index matters more than width" camp.

Yeah, not using any mechanical shufflers other than my own two hands. I don't see a lot of love for 4-color decks so I imagine it's not something they sell a whole ton of.

I messaged the owner last night on etsy to see if he's making them again any time soon. I'll let you know.

He said they will be coming back into stock but he doesn’t have a time frame as of right now

I'll keep a look out for that to happen then I suppose. In the meantime, I found some on Amazon for $16 a setup, which isn't bad. If nobody turns up a deck they want to sell after a while I may just pull the trigger on those.

I have used Faded Spade 4 color decks - the consensus is - the players like them very much.

Do you happen to know of any for sale? Don't see them listed on their site or for sale in any of the usual spots I look.

 

[Tight_Lay_DOWN]

I purchased a first run release, they sold out quickly. So quickly - it's hard to believe they haven't reprinted more. If they are not on the website at the moment - they must not have reprinted. They are kinda a strange company, they have had other great releases, and have not reprinted or they have not reprinted them in bridge size, only poker size, which my other players do not use.

 

[MoarChips]

Hopefully they do reprint. I googled images of their 4 color decks and they are slick! I like how the KQJ are also the same color as the pips. Other 4 color decks don’t do that

Ah true, but these are also sold out haha

Ask to @T_Chan

 

[T_Chan]

Yeah I have them in stock

 

[demonnic]

That's awesome! I was able to find them on your site and everything once I knew to look there; unfortunately, the shipping is more than the cards themselves and idk if I'm quite ready to spend > $40 US on a single setup. But even with that it's tempting.

 

[demonnic]

Alright, gonna shut this down. Wound up ordering the ones I linked from Amazon above, we'll see how they go

 

[demonnic]

Actually, I'll leave it up a little longer, wouldn't mind two setups.

 

[MoarChips]

I was eyeing those amazon ones as well. Let me know what you think once they arrive. I like the copag ones but I feel the blue diamond and green club pips are too light.

 

[demonnic]

So they came in today, and I do not like them for a couple of main reasons.

1.) They arrived pretty heavily bowed in the middle, like paper decks do when you have people shuffling and doing the aggressive bridge riffle. They don't sit flat -at all-

2.) The colors are entirely too similar. The black, green, and blue are all much darker than I've previously experienced with four color decks and start to look very samey, which defeats the whole point of using a 4 color setup. I'll take a picture in a moment to show what I mean.

It was worth the cost to find out for me, but I don't think I'll ever actually use them and I'm going to go buy a Copag four color setup for my next game in a week rather than trying to make these work.

 

[demonnic]

Showing the bowing. This is after I spent some time trying to flatten them.

And showing the colors. They're all just so samey seeming except the the hearts despite being different colors. I think because they're similarly dark in hue.

Awful, sorry bud

I ordered some as well out of curiosity.

I only opened one box... of the 4-pack I order. The card backs were misprinted and misaligned... and some were worse than others. In short, they are defective/unusable and are being sent back.

If anyone wants pics, I can try to get some tomorrow.
