The card decks included were beyond great, however I did burn the box itself as it took up too much room.
Well, I messed up a little bit. I thought this would be a repeat of the 1st Gen Kard Box, giving me a real shot at obtaining a Mint LTD deck. This is 100% my own fault, but it didn’t stop the disappointed feeling.
I feel a little guilty, because I took this box from someone who actually understood what they were getting into. :( I’m sorry about that. I’ve only heard of 1 deck and it’s got an asymmetric back to it, which I don’t use.
I’ve since tried selling the other two decks, but there isn’t any interest as both are available elsewhere.
I made a $50 mistake and I’m truly sorry for it, to everyone :/
This deck handles very well and looks great. I like how the four of a kind all have different connecting designs when put together. They four of a kind also has the months on them which i was unaware of until i got them but they are very cool.
Even if it wasn't a magic wallet, it would be a nice wallet to carry around. As a card to wallet trick, it's really well designed. It still feels a little "tight" for me to get it fast and smooth, and definitely takes some practice. At the same time the tutorial will pretty much answer anything you're struggling with.
Just received second Mystery Kard Box. Tough call on this one. Value of cards definitely more than full blown retail. Decks are always great quality. This box had one great deck and two decks I wouldn’t normally purchase. I cannot complain about selections as it is a mystery box. Compared to first box I would say I’m not as impressed with the selections. I know every box cannot contain hard to get or out of print decks. I suppose my feeling is that I could wait for a sale and buy the same decks I received at the same price point . Just my opinion. Still love the concept.
Big fan of Asad and 52Kards. I'm an amateur who has loved magic since I was a kid but never really had the opportunity to explore further. In the last several years I watched Asad's videos on YouTube and became a backer on 2 Kickstarter campaigns. Kard Box was a logical progression as I started collecting premium decks like Mint, etc. This is my 2nd Kard Box and I received some very nice collector level decks. Looks like the value is much more than what I paid but regardless it's very cool. At this point I am trying to collect all the Mint offerings but I already have some of the more rare offerings out there! Really enjoy getting surprised by what shows up too!
52Kards has been my go-to deck shop, I bought this the day of release, and found my deck to not so good quality standards, they reached out, helped me out with utmost respect compassion and care to make things right. I definitely will continue to trust them.
Hi!
Thanks for the review! The delivery of Kard Box did take longer than usual as we needed to prep this differently, apologies for the time delay.
However, we did our best to pack these really well. Could you send us a photo of the damaged deck or the whole Box so we can see what happened?
None of the decks we sent were blank so would you be able to send us this as well so we can verify and correct this? Thanks in advance!
Best Regards,
Marcin
Perhaps one of the best looking decks visually, and for a deck with geometric designs on both face and back it makes for a great cardistry deck.
Contents were good, not great but still good. I didn’t get either of the 4th or gilded decks but the ones I got were nice.
First off: The cards are super cool, I DO wish I received a guilded deck or a fourth deck, but that’s random I get it, lol. The one thing I’d change a little bit is the packaging. There unfortunately wasn’t anything to make it feel like a special card pull, there wasn’t any sheet about the cards I received that made them special, or anything that made it feel worthwhile to try and get the mystery pack again. Again, the cards are cool, but it didn’t really feel super special. I’d really love to know a little bit about the decks I received. Other than that, the cards are great!
Hard to review mystery boxes because you sign up for something where you’re not sure what you get. Three decks I got in the second edition of the kard box just disappointed me. Sumi, Fontaine Real Monsters, and one of the joker and thief no borders decks. Just don’t think they were above value like promoted. Still a supported of 52Kards. Love the mints and waves decks. Just bummed with this one
Bought both Kard boxes and plan on buying all future ones. The value exceeded the cost for sure and I love opening surprises, like Christmas morning!
Second attempt at the kard box and was able to get in on it. Quick shipment and well packaged. Three diverse packs of cards well made for sleight of hand and cardistry. The benefit of the box is how it introduces you to brands/packs that you might not have picked for yourself, so you get some exposure to new and different. Looking forward to using these decks! Only rating four stars as the savings on the decks is only slight - but still worth it.
Awesome effect, but practice carefully. I wound up with a headache after looking at the blurred cards too long.
This is one of the best trick to carry in your pocket, definitely. And it has one of the best reactions. Thank you for selling this excellent product.
I love the trick. I've owned it in a larger coin size in the past and prefer it to the current quarter version I just bought. The quarters personally feel a little to small for me to move as smoothly, but the quality is top notch.
The quality of the cards were amazing. They felt like bicycle cards. The tutorial was even better. Not only going over essential slights, but showing difficult slights in slow motion. What sold me on the trailer was the four of hearts matrix. I’m still working on it and can’t wait to add it to my repertoire. I couldn’t have been happier with the product.
Doesn't get much better than this product. Everything about it is excellent. Bought it for my 13 yr. old grandson...he's already got it down and his classmates at school can not believe his skill...but you know the first rule of magic!
Nothing is more visual in magic than producing money! This creative effect turns a regular deck of playing cards into stacks of US bills in a series of riffles and flourishes that is is stunning and artful. Then they change back into playing cards!
There are some angle limitations when performing, but the impact of this effect is worth its weight in gold
