Should I stop using Copags? (1 Viewer)

Looking at the bottom of the box, it looks like those are made by MSC Gaming.

Interesting, they definitely shuffled and dealt well. Also had a slight texture feel to them too. Admittedly, when I first saw him bust them out in that generic box I was prepared to be underwhelmed, but I was very pleasantly surprised about how great they played and felt.
 
haha just a popular James Bond Casino, not a reall copag design, but something many members here would want. Custom order/group buys requiree orders of 1,000 decks or more most likley. Most people dont buy 200 decks like yourself, so it was an attempt at a joke.

BTW, I've got some preliminary designs for a JB themed deck. Maybe 2 decks. If there's enough interest Maybe a GB in the future.
 
Modiano Club for $12.99 per setup is the best value by far. I like these much better than Copags.
 
You’ll find (and already have, obviously) that a bunch of us are card snobs too. I have used about every name brand there is, and the one I absolutely refuse to buy is Copag. Some people love them, but they have just never done it for me. Give some other brands and try, and I’m betting you won’t be sorry.

KEM, Faded Spade, Gemaco Superflex (if you can find them), DesJgn, etc.
Thats why I asked you guys lol. I havent ventured outside of Copag because they were cheap and I figured other cards would last about the same amount of time. Some of you guys are saying that there are actually decks that will last longer. Will a KEM set last longer than 2 seats of copags? Its double the price.

Ill try a few out and see...
Any reviews on these would be appreciated

Cartamundi 100% Plastic Setup $12.95

THEPOKERSTORE.COM 10 Decks for $40
Where do I get Desjgn cards? Legit site?
FADED SPADE $25 a set - Any place to get a better price?

Teskyer Plastic Playing Cards, 100% Waterproof Playing Cards, Poker Cards, 2 Decks of Cards - Anyone ever use these? They have a good review on amazon

 
I have been using Copags for the last 15 years and I have no complaints. I have been paying about $13-14 for a set (2 decks). I am running thin on my current supply and before ordering another large order (~200 Decks), Id like some suggestions on possible alternatives that make sense economically and that can hold up to heavy use. Usage is nightly and we currently rotate about 8 decks at a time until they become too warn down. I would say 1 deck of cards can last about 2 weeks within the rotation. Thats just a guess. Ive always been interested in custom cards for my game but havent been looking long enough to see if thats even possible with a good quality card thats afforable. Id prefer to keep cost under $8 a deck. What do you guys think?
I personally love copag cards. Sure the backs get marked but they have a super nice design and great quality.

Those poker store cards can be bought in smaller setups if you want to try them, I just linked the bigger one to show the colors available- but I think if you just buy a two deck setup you don’t get to choose the two colors they send.
 
Has anyone heard of Faded Spade doing a group buy? If the cards are good Id be willing to put down a large order.

Use code WPT for 20% off a Faded Spade order. Brings the price down a bit but a bit beyond your budget.

The Cartamundis are a decent card for a good value.

Those Pokerstore setups are garbage. Ditto the Teskyer cards.

PM @desjgn here. Definitely legit and one of the best if not the best vendor here. If you're buying lots, he ships in flat rate boxes and envelopes that keeps shipping costs down.

Between the Cartamundis for $13 and desjgn for $17 per set up, I take the desjgns 100% of the time. They're worth the $4 difference in price and then some.

If you’re looking for best bang for your buck, these are extremely tough to beat.

We hand shuffle as well…need to test them out.
Like everything else, it comes down to personal preference. I would take the poker store “garbage” cards over Faded Spades 100% of the time. BTW, obviously I disagree with that assessment of those cards, get a set up and try them, if you think they are garbage I will buy them from you at cost plus shipping. As they say around here, get samples and go with what feels right to you.
