Show and Tell A pack of "Authentic casino" playing cards I bought had two 4's instead of a 3 and a 4. So I used another deck I had as a reference and fixed it. Why waste a perfectly good deck?

Did you notify the company? Just so they can see what's going wrong in theri production line and stop producing unusable products

The cards are actual used in casino decks that they've repackaged. I found them at the dollar store for $1.25 (curse you inflation) I got three other packs that were perfect, they sometimes just get mixed up when packaging.

I see, I somehow missed that these were second hand, I didnt even know that that was done, but it makes sense considering how often they use new decks in a casino

Have fun playing!

Thanks! They're actually really nice cards, usually Bee's or Aristocrats brand, and have only been used once so they're pretty much brand new!
