Cardistry Touch - Origin (Pre Order April 7th)

[Azid]

Some may have seen this deck already on instgram, YouTube or elsewhere.
As far as i Know they printed 250 Prototypes and some lucky guys (at Cardistry Con last year) were able to get their hands on this deck. It's not really a playing card deck as it is 100% meant for cardistry (No courts, no suits!!)
Now it seems that the official release is just a few days away:

Now, *that* is minimalist.*


* of course, Daniel Madison already achieved the ultimate in minimalism with Blanks.

First of all, I hate when they only show the cards in videos because you can never get a proper look at them.

Secondly, I'm not sure how I feel about these types of decks. On one hand, it makes sense for a cardistry deck to utilize all the card real estate for cardistry purposes. On the other hand, they're not really playing cards anymore.

On this deck though, it wouldn't have impeded the cardistry aspect much to at least just put regular indices on the deck (see below pic).

Cardistry without cards, just a video of people doing the hand gestures and rapid camera movement... That would be the next step

On pre-order over at cardistrytouch.com
€12.95 (+ €5,30 shipping for me in Oregon), soo... one deck for $19.33 (Google currency converted) shipped. I really want one but... that's a little steep. And that's a promotional price for the pre-order, MSRP will see them at 2 pounds more expensive

We've lowered our cost by only printing on one side, and passed the savings along to *us.*

These guys are funny.....
Aren't the from Europe ? I guess yes, because you have to pay with € (EURO)
Cards are printed by Cartamundi .... also Europe
So why the hell they want 15,75€ shipping for 1 deck within Europe ?? No Thanks....

They are shipping from the US through Art of Play, which is kind of strange, but good for those in the US. Would have thought it made more sense to ship the US orders from the US and the European orders from Europe...I mean, why ship them to the US only to have to ship them back to Europe?

Though I don't see myself buying more than 1 or 2 decks, I must say that I really love the new tuck design! Hope to see more of that!
