Floral Deck – 33% off!

MagicNevin have some great deals in their New Year Sale running for another week or so I believe. Discounts vary between products – but they are from 10-50% off normal price. In addition to all the tricks, we spotted some lovely decks e.g. the Asura Deck (10%off), Bicycle 125th Anniversary Deck (33% off), Fathom 3rd Edition (33% off) and many, many more. And the classic Blue Bicycle Deck is only £1.74 after discount. And don’t forget it’s free UK shipping on orders over £10.

I was going to plug some other sales – but I think everyone else’s have finished!  I did notice that the new Onida Deck is reduced at JPPlaying Cards – but that is a pre-order rather than a sale item! Watch this space for the Forces Project review…

UPDATE – Merlins of Wakefield have got a Jan sale starting on Monday 11th and finishing on 31st Jan.  Reductions of up to 50% on over 100 lines.  Worth a look!

The first are these highly unusual and unique metal and mechanised playing cards.  Yes – you read that right – these have clockwork workings – created by the artist and designer Dale Mathis – you’ve just got to go and look at the video of these.  I would have thought these would be guaranteed collectors’ items and would make a great Christmas gift!

Our friends at PropDog actually have a whole separate collection of gifts for the magician – belts, cufflinks, lighters, you name it they have it. Well worth a look if you’re stuck for ideas.

We’ve talked before about presenting your decks nicely – well here’s a beautiful way of doing just that. Another great Christmas gift for the magician or card collector who has everything! Made from solid lucite, the one picture holds 8 decks – but also available in 6 deck, 5 deck, 4 deck, 3 deck, 2 deck and even 1 deck versions!

And finally, I spotted an advert for this brilliant new utility device the other day and just have to draw it to your attention. This is a really clever way of
switching one deck for another – pretty much in plain sight – which does almost all the work for you. This is such a powerful tool we really thought it deserved a mention! I should note this is still pre-release at the time of writing so may not be out in time for Christmas unless you go for the next day delivery option.

This is probably a good point to remind you about Christmas delivery deadlines – Friday 19th is probably the cut off for first class delivery, if you go next day delivery (usually more expensive) you should be ok up to 23rd. As usual, the rule is order early if you want to make sure!

We don’t know much about King of Cards – a new supplier in the UK – but they have a good range of Bicycle Cards and other brands, and are offering 20% off with the code ‘BLACKFRIDAY’ and it looks like free shipping too.  So worth a look.

The MagicAttic have got some deals.  Spend £20 and get a 10% discount and a free gift (code: ‘Blackfriday10’) or spend over £50 and get a 15% discount, free postage and a free gift (code: ‘Blackfriday15’).

The Madison Hustler Purple is inspired by the colours and images of the 50s and 60s. It’s an effortlessly cool design which looks great! £7.99 (also available in very limited edition Orange for £19.99).

And if you like Daniel Madison’s designs, you’ll also be interested in the latest (and apparently final) version of the Madison Rounders. These new decks are in White – providing high contrast – and feature a luxury linen tuck box. £8.49

We mentioned the Zinfandel Deck recently and have discovered it also comes in a rather attractive Blue (well Indigo!) version. As well as looking fabulous the Indigo Deck (and its pink brother) have a very subtle marking system which identifies each card from its back. So not just a stylish deck, but very useful for magicians. £9.99

The new King of Kings deck from Noel Quiles looks suitably regal with deep reds and golds and stylish court cards. £9.99
