Seems I'm the lone dissenting vote here. The 'cool factor' is there as a novelty, but I found these to be technically inferior to any decent card. For one thing, the deck I bought had irregularly-cut corners, so if the deck got re-registered, the corners were ragged. Also, I had a problem with them sticking together. Wiping and washing didn't help, and talc did nothing for the clearness appeal. Maybe I just got a bad deck.(?)
I've never thrown away a new deck of cards before. This one was the first.
