$15.95 USD @ Caragails.com shipping to ON is $10.00USD Customer service is phenomenal should you encounter a problem.
That said, Charlie at Straight Poker is just as good. Pricing on what you want will be the only difference. These are $20.00CAD at his place. Free shipping for orders over $65.00 . . .
Best - Modianos, followed very closely by pre-USPC Kems. Fourniers and Dal Negros are a step down in quality, but not by much. The Modianos and Dal Negros are thicker and stiffer (more like a paper card) than the Kems and Fournier cards, so it depends on what you like in a card (feel).
Value - Copags are a solid value for the $$$. Better than those listed above. If you are using these cards for a weekly League, or cash game, this is what I would stock up on. The nicer cards I would get for the more casual, or infrequent use. Have not tried the Carta Mundi cards yet, but they are made by Copag in the USA, so I have high expectations. New Kems are probably the worst value available today. You are paying for a reputation that has long since gone the way of the Dodo . . .
Worst - USPC Kems, Royals, anything from China. The Kems for the reasons listed above, and the Royals and other Chinese cards because they are too flimsy to make the cheap price worth the crap "feel".
Be aware we can still get the Party Poker Plastic cards for about $3. a deck shipped in larger quantities. These are supposedly the same cards we played at HVEE's tourney last Sunday...
I used to be a solid KEM guy but I love my Modianos. Best by far. I wouldn't call Modianos thick. Dal Negros are thick. Modianos are perfect. Caragails full of win.
I bought 50 decks of those Fournier Party Poker Cards from that guy Moose knew from Chiptalk a while back. Actually I think they're the ones you guys used that the Royal Cup. They're great. everyone loves them and they're a great deal. Just a thought.
He said he had loads left... I can look up his email if Moose doesn't have it.
LOL . . . if anything I'll be the guy getting a card hook-up. I've got around 30 set-ups, of various types right now.
Not trying to knock the Party poker cards we all got in on, for the price they are a good value. But asll the ones I have seen are the same colour, which, as I said, makes two deck tables an issue.

If that's the only issue you have, small deal... Not many places use a two deck setup amyways..
Ok, Mark only needs 24, I'm keeping 4 so that leaves 20 up for grabs. I believe that djgolfcan, AJ and sstar want 4 each, please confirm. So if anyone wants the remaining 8, let me know... They are about $2.50 a pack plus any duty if I get charged it..

lamest reply of the week candidate for sure
if that's the cheapest place to get cards, then yes, that's what I want.
Just ordered these . . .

Good luck . . .
I concur with this.
I had always played with Copags until my supplier in Shanghai gave me a free sample of the Modianos.
The feel of the cards was awesome, they are slightly thicker and more easy to handle than the Copags and definitely lasted longer.
Made the switch and never looked back.
Actually I think they are,,, but ymmv... And for $3. ... well ya can't beat it.. We'll see what others think...

Maybe you should get a guy...
ah..ok..no biggie then.
