Those that know me, know that I come from Finland. I have said it before, but I'll say it again: It's really hard to find any good looking playing cards in Finland. Really the only custom deck that we have is the Turku's Castle deck. I was looking to buy a few decks of them from a chain of kiosks that are all over in Finland, but so far I haven't found any. But instead I found that they sell another deck, I bought one, opened it and it was suprisingly good looking.
The deck is called L&H Playing Cards. They are printed by Piatnik in Austria. They are bridge sized and come in two colors, orange and green.
Thought that I'd share them I currently have two pairs unopened, PM me if you interested to pick any up, I'm fairly confident that I can always pick up more from a local R-Kiosk. I'll also add them to my tradelist.

Re: L&H Playing Cards (Piatnik)
Hi out there, if it's still true what you have written almost one and a half years before, I would interested in these L&H Playing cards in both colours. I would like to buy two pairs so altogether four decks but I don't know the prices and how could I pay for them. For me the Paypal would be the easiest way or I can also send you something that is only here in Hungary can be bought although the list of these things is really short. Thanks.
