This Tarot deck is very sturdy and beautiful. Colors are crisp, cards thick not glossy. Probably one of the best quality decks out there in my opinion and the price is very fair. The little booklet in the box is of"book quality"not the normal pamphlet quality, it even has colored images in it. I highly recommend this deck.

I've read reviews of other card sets that the printing is off and the cards are thin. These are a nicely printed, expected thickness set of cards with a book included to give you a very basic description. These are my first deck of tarot cards and I wanted to start with a Rider Waite deck. This deck fits the bill perfectly!

These cards a slightly thinner than I expected (these are like the thickness of playing cards but in tarot card size) but they are easy to shuffle and hold. Colors are nice. This is a great Rider Waite deck (I have a few). The guidebook has short descriptions and pictures of the cards, but no reversal descriptions, FYI.

I got these cards to give as a gift. The recipient loves them! It really made a unique gift and she uses them everyday. She has told me that it took her no time to learn how to use them and that they are really pretty and colorful. I am a little jealous that I gave them away, so I am going to have to get myself a set!

This deck is the basic Rider-Waite tarot deck, which is what I wanted. The card stock is not the typical type you normally find. It's glossier and the cards are super easy to shuffle right out of the box. The cards are not overly large, either. It DOES include a small booklet with the standard card interpretations.

I like the feel of the cards and how easy they are to shuffle. ?I also like the fact that the imagery on the cards are simplistic in the way they offer an intuitive idea of connection to be made allowing ?the reader an ease of understanding what messages are atempting to come through the cards for the reading.

These are gorgeous - absolutely beautiful. Because they are foil and made of a somewhat foil like texture, but not really foil, not sure what it is, they are somewhat slick. They are a good size though - not too big and not too small to shuffle and read. I haven't seen anything like them before. They are wow.

The cards are very beautiful but difficult to shuffle because of the slippery texture. ?The guide book is very small and not very helpful for beginners or people just trying out Tarot for the first time. ?The cardboard box looks lovely but it is very snug and started breaking apart after one day of use.

I'm really happy with these cards, ?I'm fairly new to Tarot and don't have alot of experience with other cards. ?But wanted something universal and traditional. ?I have small hands, ?and these cards are easy to handle. ?New package wrap, arrived early, undamaged. ?Looking forward to working with them.

I got this because I needed an original tarot deck to study because I have enjoyed doing readings with my non traditional deck, but I wanted an understanding of the original cards. I have been doing readings for friends and family and everyone has loved it. The booklet is very clear and easy to use!
