Per the thread title. With lots of my chip sets completed and working on only one set at this time, I'm gearing my attention towards hard to find plastic playing card set ups. I'm on the hunt for the following:

1. Any amount of Cartamundi (made in Belgium only!) plastic playing cards. I have a blue/red set up of these from this source , but I'd love to find cards of other colors and casino cards on this stock (@mipevi already hooked me up, thank you again!). But I'm interested in what you may have! Looking for bridge or poker size, jumbo index only.

2. Modiano Golden Trophy Bridge Size Jumbo Index set up. This one I'm hoping is realistic, who's got them?

3. Modiano Disco Bridge Jumbo: Probably slightly more difficult and of lesser quality than the Golden Trophy's (they seem to be the same stock as the Texas Poker line being offered now), but still interested if anyone has any!
Modiano Blackjack Index R/B Poker Size

4. European casinos tend to have less stringent regulations on destroying plastic cards after the casino closes. For all of the EU members here, I'd appreciate you looking out for me for liquidation of things like the Modiano Alpha cards that came about a couple of months ago!

5. Any other unique or difficult to find plastic poker or bridge jumbo index set up that you may think I find interesting. Shoot me a PM with what you have and I'll let you know if I have it or not!

Thanks everyone and happy chipping (and carding?)!

Have you or someone else reading this ordered from this site before? Site looks a bit sketchy to me. Shipping for three set ups is also $18, but in the long run, it's cheap compared to what I'd pay to get everything from Europe.

Well, I'm giving it a shot. Figure worst case scenario is that I can always dispute the charge with my CC company. Fingers crossed! Will report back.

Honest answer - all I did was a Google search for the individual items you listed here. I can search for more of that one if you want.

It's all good, I'm going to give it a shot. That's the only place I came up with that has the bridge size Modiano's in the US. The rest are from European sources that cost the same per set up I'm paying shipped from the place you linked even before shipping from Europe to me.

I like the Cartamundi Belgium cards a lot. They're nothing like the Cartamundi USA cards that are slippery and very plastic feeling. The Belgian cards behave like paper cards but are a really nice plastic. Very smooth and have a nice feel to them.

Being that you're in the country of origin, are you able to get any of these? :D
 
Yes, I ordered some decks but thes are for the same source (so no help to you).
Will have them in the house Thursday before our game.

A follow up already on this.

So the site is legitimate, but one of their employees reached out to me this morning and stated that they are out of stock of mostly everything and that the inventory on their website hasn't been updated in some time. Requested a refund :(

No worries.

It seems like Cartamundi Belgium mostly deals with casinos. The best bet to find more of their plastic cards I think is to see if any casinos or card rooms in Europe have any extras to sell.
 
I'll bump this for the night crew.

Willing to pay top dollar for casino Cartamundi's or something unique you may have extras of!

Happy Birthday!

Are those Cartamundi cards that you got the same ones as the Tobago Cards that Surfik was selling? I really like those a lot except for the GIANT pips.

The very same.

See, I think the giant pips set them apart from other types of cards. Gives using the cards a "big game" feel when I put them into play. A lot of WSOP Europe and pro cash games in Vegas use Cartamundi decks with these unique pips.
 
I received my Cartamundi decks....these are nice and would like some bridge setup's too...but they seem hard to find.

Did you ever try Piatnik cards ?

Yes, I have two poker size sets and one of the really hard to find bridge size sets! I like them a lot!

I could only source one type of casino red bridge size Cartamundi deck but shipping to the US is cost prohibitive sadly. Send me a PM as you may be able to more affordably acquire them!
 
Great, keep me posted.

Could not find any info on index...but they are bridge size & made in Belgium ;)
How much was domestic shipping ?
