EDIT: Auction over. Crazy money.

Stumbled across this. Made by Cartamundi. Figured you all might be interested. Bit pricey for me.

Sold for £800 - http://propstoreauction.com/view-auctio ... o%2Broyale" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Pretty much buying these on faith, as they don't even have a single thing to support the claim that the deck you are buying is actually one used during production of the James Bond flick.

Here's a pair from ebay.com that you can have for $35, only missing the 9H:

Zero chance. I had a brick of both colours once. You could pick them up in WHSmith and Waterstones for about £4 each.

They ARE the decks that Cartamundi made for the movie (they did the chips too) but there is ZERO chance that these specific decks were on screen props.

The site makes no claim that these are the ones Daniel Craig himself held in the poker scenes. Only that these were used during production. Gotta have backups.

So, yes, you can buy any of the decks Cartamundi made. Or, you can buy ones used during the movie's production from a seemingly reputable site.

Seems fair either way.

I dream of a world where wars are fought only by having dance offs. I also dream that a Finnish playing card designer would exist. The former seems more likely to happend.
