What is everybody's take on the Ms Cleo tarot deck?

Zephyros

Personally, I dislike the deck. It is looks too sketchy and amateur. However, I must say that I would get it if I saw it and it was for the right price. If only as a relic of notoriety:)

Who knows, it may be worth something some day as proof of a great scam:)

Actually, Lyric, the decks are less than a dime a dozen on eBay!

I owned several copies of the deck and the Delux Miss Cleo package with her video and book. I have never opened them but I have given many as gifts. Even at $1 a deck set, I find it's worth more as a curiousity and decided not to open mine. (I actually might get $2 a deck set someday!)

From what I have seen of the cards, the Egyptian-esque style of the cards does not really appeal to me.

Anyone ever watched the video? Dying to find out how it is! :smoker:

I must admit that I know little to nothing about Miss Cleo. I have heard the controversy about her but have never seen this deck before.

Actually, from that deck samples, they look quite pleasant and clear. They don't look as though they would be hard to work with. Quite like the simplicity of the pictures.

Sorry, but those bright red claws on the female hands just turn me off!!! Not to mention the faux-Egyptienne theme to the whole thing. I find the art pretty dismal, to be absolutely honest. Have it, opened it, have yet to ever use it.

Danubhe, you've said exactly what I was thinking, too . . . those red claws are horrifying! I think the art is ugly, and the attempt it makes at an Egyptian theme fails miserably.

Even though I could easily get a copy . . . or heck, a few dozen copies . . . on eBay for next to nothing, I flat-out refuse to buy it.

I actually bought a dozen decks on ebay awhile ago to give as gifts and to give away to newcomers who cannot afford a deck. I have opened a copy for myself, and although they do seem cheaply made, they certainly aren't the worst deck I have seen. For the price, they are great for beginners :)
