http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2914372295&category=1469 Someone on ebay sure had trouble with this one, get a load of the title and the description....can you just FEEL the frustration? A cheap buy at 25 cents! ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Inside every older person is a younger person -- wondering what the hell happened.

I remember that deck.. it's what is now known as The Tarot of the Witches.. a.k.a The James Bond Tarot.. is repackaged now. So this is quite a find for a tarot collector, even tho the box is worn. That is the original box design! :) Here is the summary: http://www.aeclectic.net/tarot/tarotwitches/index.html

ROFLMAO I have just read the same thing on CompTarot. This is nothing anyway. I remember there was a member some time ago, a woman, complaining because she got cut continuosly with the cards edges when she shuffled or simply handled them... *lol* She affirmed it was not a thing of chance and unability on her part, and that it was too weird not to be notice; also, she often bled due to the cuts! *lol* She went on to believe that the deck was requiring a blood sacrifice to her, so as to work properòy... *LOL* I think Thirteen could remember this too. Anyway, YEP that's a beastly EVIL deck. And UGLY!!! :| *LOL*

The James Bone 007 :) , well at least he's had 3 bids on it - wonder if he picked it up from ebay in the first place :)

Pollux	02 Mar 2003
Mh... oops, I forgot to say that... as a pennyless tarot-holic... and as a collector... for that price... < looks around with candid expression > ... I would just get it at once! *LOL* We should tell Kiama, a first edition James Bond deck might do well and get a room of its own in her Kiama Museum of Tarot Decks ... *giggles* :D

HudsonGray	02 Mar 2003
I wonder if that James "Bone" was a typo or deliberate?

Kyrielle	02 Mar 2003
Well, D and E are right next to each other on the keyboard. I think this guy just wanted to get his listing posted ASAP and didn't care what he typed. I wonder how this deck feels toward him now, about being misnamed on ebay? -- Kyrielle

So, for 25 cents.. to get a 1st edition POSSESSED James Bond deck.. LOL! :D Maybe it takes on a life of it's own and does nice things for you IF you are nice to it but will make you miserable if you are mean to it and treat it badly and sell it on E-Bay! ;) I feel a movie idea coming on.................................

Ohhh... ohh. LOL. I wonder who the Fool is? *Imagines James Bond with pack on his back, taking that big open road*
