Excellent cards, just had mind delivered (UK) - same size as a credit card and the 10 are as deep as 6 normal business cards and 2 credit cards (if you include the raised embossing). Very impressed.

The PaC effect is also very impressive and worth a peek.

Just received these. Not only are they super thin durable plastic, but they are also marked in an extremely clever and imperceptible way (to the audience that is.)

Many of us have our pet ESP routines and having tried many different kinds of cards Royal, Vernet etc, I wanted something that was not only durable, but had a degree of authenticity too. The design of these adds the authentic look I wanted and the markings (soooo discreet) are a real plus.

If you perform with ESP cards at all, these are a must have.

Buy once, keep in your wallet always. PC has done it again. Bravo Paul.

The wallet Zenner cards are one of Paul's best creations. I cannot believe how thin (and yet durable) these cards are. I keep an already stuffed wallet. With the ten ESP cards in? No perceptible difference at all! And the markings are the best I've ever seen. Until these cards were released, I had yet to find an ESP deck where the markings were either too noticeable, or not discernible enough for my aging eyes. I'm going to be using these daily. I would already put these on the "Best of 2014" list.

Thanks to Paul's brilliant customer service I now have 5 sets of these.
Enough for two complete cyclic stacks.

Hello all,

I have started getting light scratches and marks on the cards. With the backs being the color and material they are, the scratches look bad and totally would make a spectator think I just remembered how they were scratched up (ironically that is of course similar to the true nature of the cards' secret).

Anyone else?

I keep them in my SAW as I did with my previous paralabs cards. The paralabs never scratched though.

I may try to run over the scratches with a sharpie but I'm not sure that will work.

Attached a photo. Not giving away any of the markings.

Tried the sharpie trick, big mistake. Sharpie too dark, looks even worse now.

Anyone else having these issues?

Yes, this is why I keep them in an envelope so they are somewhat protected in the wallet. Just a small coin envelope fits them perfectly.

I told you my friend, carring a knife on your wallet for your "ESP stab' routines wasnt a good idea Smile

On my case, I place my ESP cards on a small envelope with the 5 ESP symbols drawn, ready for my "ESPeriment #2"

Hmm...I guess I wanted overall thinness so I didn't think of the envelope. Plus inside the envelope it won't fit inside the credit card slot.

But I get what you all are saying. Still kind of sucks how easily these are damaged. I haven't had that experience with Dreamweaver or his other wallet cards.

Yeah I will find mine and start using it. I had them in the credit card slot, I was amazed at how 5 could fit inside of one slot. With the envelope I will just have to put them in the pocket instead. It will be worth it because of how thin these are. Great cards, I just have to be more careful with them.

Thanks everyone for your input.

There are smaller pay envelopes that fit these perfectly. They measure 3 1/2 by just over 2 inches. I've had them for years so unfortunately don't recall where I got them. Should be available at Staples or Ebay.

If you find these, they will fit perfectly in the credit card slot or the rear of Paul's great Lookout wallet.

Hey Paul

Would love to see these produced using standard card stock, poker size, no borders if possible. The system is great, one of the best Ive seen and sometimes I would like to perform with standard size cards.

Something to think about.

I bought a set of these yesterday at a lecture. These are easy to read for me, even in low light. Since they're thin I can finally retire the vinyl packet-trick wallet I've kept in my trouser pocket for ESP cards.

A Staples no. 1 coin envelope was just barely too narrow to accommodate a stack of ten of these wallet cards. If you're looking for a protective envelope you might try a different brand or make your own.

Mike- #3 coin envelopes measuring 2-1/2 x 4-1/4 are ideal. You'll have to trim the length- I just cut the top flap off and about 1/4" further down, and it fits nice and snug in a wallet. You want that flap (both, optimally) off the envelope anyway, to reduce thickness. The width is a perfect fit.

Just received my cards yesterday, Really well made with some good little routines and they are going straight into my wallet! As a Multi dimensional user this is a great back when not carrying the die and for the price its the best thing I have bought all year!
