Cheap Card Stock

[rphilton]

What's the cheapest place to get playing cards in bulk these days? I recall that Amazon used to sell cards in bulk from casinos but don't see those deals anymore.

I was getting a box of 48 of the easy cheapos (a little smaller than typical cards, in a red box) for about $23 -- but I think they have recently increased the price.  Was on Amazon.  If they aren't under 50 cents a deck anymore, I'd switch to Mavericks, which are a little harder.  Still probably at or under $1 per deck, also Amazon.

under $26, so not much more than 50 cents per deck.  These cards are easier than Maverick or casino decks, so maybe not hard enough for training if you are already good at it, but great for cheap practice and you can always add a few cards or do notches and such if these are too easy for regular tearing.

Awesome, thanks for sharing @Vinnie. I looked this morning and didn't see anything much cheaper than a buck.

Depending on where you live you may be able to get them very cheap or free at casinos.
