VisualTarot.com to purchase decks...?

Has anyone ever purchased a deck from visualtarot.com? Seems not exactly above board, but was curious of it's reputation. Thanks :)

Looks sketchy and I'm not sure how the login works to actually try to purchase the decks, perhaps you have to buy a subscription and then the cheap OOP are a come on? Let us know how it goes.

Early last year I found a deck on visualtarot that was no where else. I didn't understand exactly how to purchase tho, so I emailed them. No Paypal opt. They were in Russia or the Ukraine, and they wanted me to WIRE the money to them. uh no.....don't think so....

So I dropped the whole thing and just contacted the creator herself. Turned out she had some spare decks still laying around. At least we were in the same country. Glad I dodged THAT bullet!

Mmmm... Yeah, the whole things seems a little suspect. I considered using PayPal, as that adds a level of protection, but I think I'll just avoid the whole site....

Glad you found a copy of the deck you were looking for :)

Unless someone else has had a positive experience with them..... haha.....

No no no. Don't go there.

MAJOR scam. Even if they had the decks they claim to have (which they almost certainly DON'T) they are only interested in your bank details.

There are many threads - here's two:

and an article in the AT newsletter:

Steer clear.
agree! I think we had this topic on fb group, it's a scam site and there were mentioning of copyright infringement and law suit, it should be down, but they are still up?x.x
so even if they sell actually decks it must be cheep/low quality copy, but as there is no paypal option it can't be legit and they aim for you card!XD ;))) so be WARNED!:))

alainaobrian: I never thought at the time, to come on here and just ASK about the VisualTarot.com site. But I am SO glad you did. Good to have my gut/brain confirmed.

And gregory, those links were very helpful.
