I've honestly not seen them. I have collected a little more than 3000 decks and for me the designs are getting crazy. I love my decks to look classic, but with less bright colours. I wanted the back to be elegant and most importantly the card stock to be perfect. I like a thin crushed stock like the old Stud's and I love the deep rich burgundy color their backs had, so I used that on the face. They are traditionally cut so the faro really well and the finish is so good you can use them right out of the box... I'll go Google the RED and check them out because I like Diamond Jim Tyler... but for me I finally found a deck I love.... because I'm making them myself! ;-)
okay..just checked out Product(RED) Playing Cards which can provide up to three days of life-saving HIV medication. This medication not only keeps someone living with HIV healthy, but also prevents moms from passing the virus to their unborn babies. Very cool way to raise funds!
Jim's look cool as well, but to be really honest, I am no longer a huge fan of USPC stock. It used to be super great, but now it's not. Just my opinion.
Hi MoonyD911, the cards will not be marked, but I have designed them so they can easily be marked. They are also a one way deck on both face and back, but almost impossible to notice unless you're a magician. Since I will sell the decks at my Hidden Wonders showroom to regular folks, I didn't make gaffs, dupes, or double backers... I don't want those folks thinking I use things like that, lol. I make my own gaffs and double backers...(did I say that out loud?) The quality is in the stock, thin crushed, traditional cut, really awesome finish...that will be ready to use right out of the box. The sample decks I received are so great I have been using the same deck for three weeks of dozens of shows and they still look and feel amazing...
Looking nice, and I'd like some! But please tell me you've figured out viable International shipping ( to UK in particular ) for the campaign. I've had to pass on so many very lovely decks because the shipping costs were significantly exceeding the costs of the cards.
I feel ya! I backed one from the UK and it cost more for shipping than the deck! I will be subsidizing the shipping costs as I want to get these in the hands of magicians, fans, and friends. A pledge for two decks will be $25 Canadian funds and shipping will be $15 more. So with UK £ conversion... they are almost free. lol

Looking forward to seeing the Kickstarter page. Sounds like a great deck!
It's pretty darn cool and classic.
I'm looking forward to your kickstarter page. I have no doubt that your cards are going to be wonderful.
Thanks, I love them...
You're a hidden wonder Shawn Farquhar. You might have a lot of fans but I still think it's not enough with how dedicated and hard working you are. ♥️
That's just the nicest thing someone has said to me today...thank you.
@@ShawnFarquhar 😊
I probably wont be able to back It, but im hyped to see the design!
Totally cool, times are tough for lots of folks these days, I get it...
Can't wait! Sounds great.
They feel great too...
Will post another video, when the kickstarter page goes online. I could not find it with the one posted
If you click the link now in the description it should go to the page. I will be posting another video ... or two. ;-)
Cool. I'm looking forward to finding out more in a few days about this project on the Kickstarter platform.
Cool, thanks!
HI SHAWN. I love your h. G effect
Thanks... the HG Effect is really fun with these new cards. I have been using a single sample deck for weeks and it still feels new.
Looking forward to the launch.
Thanks
Looking forward to see the design 🤩
It's classic and elegant. Nothing fancy with the court cards, just a much more elegant color scheme. Oh and a couple of hidden features.

Im coming out for my second visit to HW and I’m a Photoshop, Illustrator and print production expert… please reach out if you’d like any assistance.
Hi Rick, that's super awesome of you to offer! Thanks
Around what time does the kickstarter launch?
Sorry I didn't see this sooner... it started at 11AM, when I woke up!. ;-)
What do you think of product(RED) playing cards by Theory 11 and the Diamond playing cards by Diamond Jim Tyler?

Hi Shawn, will the cards be marked at all? Also, will each deck come with any sort of gaff cards/ dupes / double backers?

I normally avoid Kickstarter like I do drunk blondes on a street corner at 2am. But this is one I can get behind. I'm in.
Sounds like you got behind a few of those drunk blondes in the past.
This comment made me laugh...

@@ShawnFarquhar that's fantastic! I'm down for at least a couple of decks. I've told Kickstarter to remind me when you go live.....
