February 17, 2021 at 11:39 amIf I buy these Standard Decks directly from you will they come without the "free-app" sticker on them? (like the photo) If not I’ll buy the Rider Backs but, just curious.

February 18, 2021 at 12:52 pmHello Thomas,
We have just received conformation that the standard tuck case is the box you would receive and that the yellow app burst is now gone from inventory.
Best Wishes,

May 2, 2018 at 4:59 amWhat is the name of the deck that is otherwise "standard" but with the colours swapped (i.e. diamonds and hearts are printed in black, clubs and spades in red)? It used to cause absolute chaos in fast-paced games or when players had been drinking.
The Bicycle Team
May 2, 2018 at 1:12 pmHello,
I am sorry, we do not have any decks with color swapped pips available. Thank you for contacting the United States Playing Card Co., and best luck in finding such a deck – It does sound like a very interesting deck to play with!
Cheers, The Bicycle Team

March 7, 2018 at 12:55 amWhat are these cards made of?
I’m working on a trick where I need to destroy a card and was wondering if the cards were safe to eat. If not, I’ll destroy it through a different method.
The Bicycle Team
March 7, 2018 at 5:39 pmHello Michael, The paper composite material is proprietary, however I can tell you that we would not recommend eating it. Thank You, The Bicycle Team

February 26, 2018 at 10:16 pmAre these poker-size playing cards?
Also, what stock (weight) are these cards printed on? I’m guessing 300 gsm smooth, but I don’t know 🙂
The Bicycle Team
February 27, 2018 at 1:37 pmHello! Yes, you are correct – the standard size refers to standard poker size playing cards as apposed to bridge size.
On you second question, all of our specifications are proprietary and can not be shared with the public. But thanks so much for your questions, Best Regards, The Bicycle Team

May 26, 2017 at 6:04 pmI’ve owned many sets of these since a young kid. These Rider Backs are a piece of Americana that are known around the globe. I have so many hours of memories with my family and these cards sitting around a table playing . It’s amazing how something like a deck of cards can be the touchstone of so many family memories.

Dominic Glasson
April 17, 2017 at 1:18 amCan someone please explain the difference between rider back and standard
The Bicycle Team
April 17, 2017 at 1:26 pmHello Dominic, There was a packaging refresh to the tuck case, resulting in changing the design descriptor from "Rider Back" to "Standard." This was done to distinguish from the "Jumbo" deck of the same design. Neither design or quality changed. Best Regards, The Bicycle Team

can someone tell me the exact difference between Cardstock and Plastic cards? i just found out these cards are paper!! which means they’re vulnerable.
DMITRY TITARENKO
January 2, 2017 at 1:06 pmCardboard – it is a paper. Plastic – it is not a paper.

James Brodski
August 2, 2016 at 8:14 pmWhen I bought my first deck of bicycle playing cards and took them out of the box, I was in love. They were very smooth and sturdy. After some time, they began sticking together like glue. Every time I took out the deck from the box, I would have to spend around 10 minutes to un-stick every card. I will most likely not buy from bicycle again.

Gabriel Gabica
June 14, 2016 at 7:20 pmWhen can you make a deck specifically for magic. Not a rigged deck but a good quality deck. One you don’t have to break in.
Thomas Evans
June 1, 2016 at 4:10 pmWhy will you not print the box with the classic standard design that was in use before the plant was moved from Ohio? Magicians depend on the old box style for several tricks and now you have ruined it.

Will Hunting
September 1, 2015 at 10:53 pmI also meant to say that Bicycle card brand is the BEST and I Would not use any other card deck. Ever. For anything. There is no better brand than Bicycle and if you don’t own one of their decks, then you better go buy one right now or else you won’t really know what it is like to live. It’s sort of like how people say “If you haven’t watched ‘Good Will Hunting’, You haven’t lived.” Which is true, but not my point. My point is “Bicycle, there is no better way”!

August 27, 2015 at 2:42 pmI recently bought a box of playing cards from Bicycle, and they are amazing.

July 30, 2015 at 1:14 amFor seemingly no reason, I bought a pack of 12 of these cards. I know they’ll be worth every penny.
ROBERT RAMIREZ
July 10, 2015 at 6:20 pmThese are a classic! Every chance I get, I pick up a deck just to have. The quality, design, and feel of these decks are unparalleled. They are recognized everywhere, are great to play with, and even better to do magic with. There is no reason for one of these decks not to be in one’s collection. The blue deck has always been my favorite and will continue to be the one I purchase the most. Pick up a deck today and feel what awesome feels like!
