 Decent cards but beware of the ink color! Jul 10, 2010
I really wanted to like these cards but I can barely use them. I didn't realize that the red suited cards didn't use any red ink. Nothing natural available I suppose. So all the red suited cards use an olive drab color for the diamonds/hearts. It makes it fairly difficult to quickly identify the card suit. Not a huge problem...but quite annoying. Also the face cards only use 4 ink colors that are natural looking as well. Besides the standard black and olive drab for the red/black suits, there is a lighter shade of green for shadowing, and a light brown that is used where yellow or gold is traditionally used. I would have really wanted to see some RED pips at least on the card. The green shade is fairly hard to distinguish from black in different lighting conditions.
As far as the feel, they feel like standard Bicycle cards...but I'm not a card master magician or anything.
So they'll serve their purpose but I'll probably only end up using them for novelty use or drinking games :-)...say to add in an extra trick to the game...drink every time you mistake a card suit lol. And as soon as they get enough beer or other beverages spilled on them, into the recycling bin they'll go.
Would I buy them again? Nope. Not at all.
Just a gimmick Jun 12, 2010
This would be nice if it was offered along side their standard Bicycle playing cards as a green alternative. I think quite a few people would make the change to recyclable cards if given the choice.
On the down side, I did notice that the stock is a bit thinner than other Bicycle decks. That could just be one of the drawbacks of going green though.
Bottom line? I think they could have a much better product with just a couple minor revisions to the Eco deck.

I really like the fact that we are re-using paper. The quality of these cards are great.
Great Crisp Cards! Apr 25, 2010
I've bought a lot of decks over the years, and this is the best yet! These cards feel great, are easy to read (once you get over the odd feeling of not having red but green instead, isn't that clever), and are holding up nicely to middle-school boys enthusiastically playing Crazy 8 every day for the past 4 months since getting them as a gift. Alot of satisfaction for the price. Wipe off.
