Store Review - Casinoshop.ie
One habit tends to be common accross magicians, especially young inexperienced magicians like me: Going through cards at a stupid rate. Weather I am practicing deck springs or presure fans, or if I am working out the kinks in a recently learned card fold or torn and restored effect, decks don’t last me very long. I tend to go through five or six decks of bikes a month. And when I am importing them from the US or England, and paying the postage price that goes with a heavy brick, it works out to be an expensive vice.
Since I first got interested in card magic, and more importantly, first tried a decent deck of cards I really did not want to use anything except Bycicle, and I wanted to find a place in Ireland that sold them.
Enter Casinoshop.ie. Targeted at the booming Poker market, casinoshop was recomended to me by a casino owner in my town. I checked them out and I was happily supprised. Not only did they stock Bycicle, Bee, Avaitor and other high quality brands, but they shipped all orders for E 3.95 and they had compeditive rates.
A pack of bikes will set you back 2.95 and if you buy 5, you get one free. So a brick (12 packs) will cost you 29.50, and with the postage, that comes to 33.45. Which in my experience, works out significantly cheaper than anywhere I have delt with in the past. The cards are also sent by Fastway Courier service, so delivery is normally within 2 days.
In my dealings with them they have been pleasant and helpful, and they were happy to supply me with all red backs. They even through in a couple of packs of seconds for me free of charge.
