I can never figure out the proper place to post but here is my question. Where do you guys pick up your decks of cards? Online? ( that's what I did last time.) Walmart seems to be out of them everytime I go. Out of curiosity what is your goto brand?
Bikes and Tally-Ho for me when I can find them. 😂 |

They always seem to be embarrassingly low on cashiers, but not Bicycle cards. Do you check near the toy section and on the shelves near the registers where cashiers don't exist? All jokes aside: I prefer Bike bricks from Costco but oftentimes go to Walmart. Amazon also has decent prices. |

Sams Club carries cheap bricks of bikes like Costco does (I think I paid about 16 or 17 bucks for one last summer). Since I typically use Phoenix Brand, I order those online by the Brick. My local Walmart sells single decks of "standard" bikes for $1 ea (in the toy section when they have any). The 2 packs at the counters are still about $4.50 and other Walmarts in my area charge $3 ea for "standards" in the toy section. I asked a manager about the differences and they told me each department sets their own prices and "other stores" almost always vary (even in the same district).

I feel embarrassed to say that I use Amazon. It would show more support for our art if I used a magic dealer instead. I've considered switching despite the additional cost. I use both Bicycle and Bee poker sized cards.

I buy Red Elite Bikes bricks from Penguin. I like having a box with now apps, stickers or ads on the box and like the thinner stock for easier mercury folds.
Not the cheapest, but it’s my choice. Blessings Steph

In France it's nearly impossible to find appropriate poker-size cards in shops.
I'm used to buy bricks directly from amazon as I'm nearly always using Tally-Ho fan back, which are about 30 euros / brick. By the way, what do you guys think about he quality of said Tally-Ho vs Standard Bikes and Richard Turner's Gold seal? |
