Eco Edition Playing Cards

I used to use this deck as a go to. I’m very happy I found it for a good price. I love the recycled materials used. The color is unique and it’s a fun thing for people to point out when they see it. Shipper got them to me in a safe way which I was considered about. The variety of options the seller has is impressive also. -Pete

I'm a card player. I love getting with a bunch of friends and playing variations of poker or pounce. The problem is that all my decks were feeling their age. I'd previously purchased a bunch of different colored decks on a trip to Vegas and now that they were wearing out I needed new colored decks for the multi-deck games for sorting. These green ones are great. They feel great, are smooth, have clear faces. And I like the fact that the normally red hearts and diamond cards are green as well. Top notch and worth the money.

Bicycle Eco Edition Playing Cards gets 5-Stars in my book! The Pluses: 1) Made in USA 2) U.S. Playing Cards Co. Bicycle 808 high quality. 3) Cards Shuffle and Handle well, typical of Bicycle Quality 4) Cool Design: The Olive color integrated into the classic 808 design, along with the "brown recycle style box" definitely gives this edition the "Eco Design Feel" The Negatives: None Overall: I give it five stars. I worthy collectable addition to the Bicycle Cards line.

These cards are simply beautiful - the quality feel of Bicycle paper with the eco feel of the green ink on the jacks, queens, and kings. The pack comes with an informational card about the greenness of the product. If you want to make a statement about the things you care about, play with these cards. Product was just as described and securely packaged.

They're nice but the color's too weird

I got it more to use as a craft, and it was a beautiful deck. I almost didn't want to mess with it. It feels nice, looks nice, everything. The green ink could be a little difficult to play with, but like I said, I used it as craft pieces, and the subtle green looks beautiful overall. Unless you're playing something like speed perhaps, I don't think the green v. black particularly matters. If anything, it'd probably help focus your eyesight quicker, because it's not like it's impossible to tell the differences.

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.

The cards are surprisingly sturdy and the box is well made. I actually prefer the handle of these cards over regular bicycle cards and they seem to be better for the environment which makes me worry less about getting rid of them once they get too worn out. A very good deck of cards for casual play, cardistry, or learning magic tricks as it will be a deck you will not be afraid to tear apart.

バイスクルの環境対応アピールバージョン。箱を覆うフィルム包装はなし。年月を経て日焼けしたっぽい紙色でザラザラ触感の紙箱もカードも落ち着いたグリーンのインクで印刷。ただ、カードは白色で手触りも通常のバイスクルと同じ、ゲームやカードマジックにも使える。が、このカード、グリーンの色合いが独特の味わいと雰囲気を醸し出しており、日常使いよりもコレクションアイテムとして置いておきたい気がする。バイスクルは魅力的なコラボデザインやカスタムデザインを次々と販売するので、ついつい買ってしまうのが難。

Great daily cards! They're durable, high quality and great right out of the box. I love that they're 100% recyclable and that they're made from responsibly sourced paper.

Nachhaltige Spielkarten auf Recycling Papier. Merke keinen Unterschied zu den Normalen Karten.

Really nice quality. The typical quality of bicycle, should be at least this level for 15 dollars. My only regret is that the ace of spades has the writing at the bottom, which I think detracts from the aesthetics of the the cards.

On regrettera la qualité du paquet d'emballage : - le carton recyclé (parfaitement adapté au thème) vieillit plus mal (plus fragile car brut) - l'autocollant du scellé s'enlève difficilement sans abimer l'étui - l'autocollant avec un code barre collé dessus s'enlève difficilement sans abimer l'étui Paquet très original en dehors de ça. J'ai apprécié le changement avec les couleurs noir/vert (qui ne sont pas dérangeantes pour jouer).
