I know there are places where you can design your own playing cards. However, they're not Bicycle (or Tally-Ho) quality. I saw one website where I can design my own Bicycle playing cards, but I have to purchase a minimum of 10,000 (yes, ten thousand) decks - yikes!
My question is: does anyone know where I can go to submit a design for a playing card, and have just a few decks made at a reasonable price? Again, I want these cards to be Bicycle or Tally-Ho quality, not Joe Yakazuka's Fleabag Playing Cards.

They do customs sure, but the minimum order is 10,000. wonder how much that costs, maybe we could get some 21ace ones donewith bike backs but different faces.
Put me down for 500 decks

Yeah, 21ace should have their own cards made. The site that Craig suggested looks pretty good. I think the minimum order amount is dependent upon the design of the card (example: the more colors you have on your card design, the more decks you have to order). But I know the minimum isn't 10,000 at least. I haven't checked it out in-depth yet. I found another website that only has a 2 deck minimum, as long as the back of the card has only 2 colors.
I'm still working on my design for my decks.

Casino's make hugh orders. So 10,000 decks is no problem. It's highly uncommon to buy 10,000 decks for yourself. If you have the money to spent
I though there are some magicians who have their own bikes.

We were thinking about 21ace cards. There are some problems (like the distribution, design) we need to solve but they might appear in a few months . We don't know the final prize yet but they would be probably more expensive than normal decks and the quality should be like Bicycles (at least the manufacturer says that ). I will keep you informed.

Put me down for 100.... Well ... should see the back design first. Can't we have a contest or something? Like submitting your back design and that people can vote for it? I think there will be loads of people buying them. Maybe we can even get 10000 cards ready!

i'd definetly be up to buying some 21ace cards (even if the quality was a bit rank) just to have them.
shadow: just make sure ur able to send to Australia, please!
and i think the back design should be simple, not detailed like rider backs or fanbacks.
