I'm curious: I put aside my active tarot buying pursuit for the last few years. I would read every now and then, do my own research, but I wasn't buying. There weren't any decks that interested me.
Since I started reading professionally again I'm interested in buying (there are so many new decks!!) so I've browsed the card section here at AT, clicked the links back to amazon.com (me and amazon are attached at the credit card) and there are now two decks on their way to me.
But I wanted to support my local economy so I went to check out a couple of metaphysical bookstores where I live. In the past I had done pretty well by them. But I was disappointed in the available stock they had on hand. Both stores had less than twenty decks - no Rider Waite clones at all (one did have a Robin Wood), the rest were just plain uninspiring.
Now, my questions:
Should I broaden my search throughout the city? Maybe it's them.
Is Tarot out of fashion? (Not that I care about trendy versus untrendy but it may affect my access)
Don't bookstores carry tarot decks anymore?
Does Tarot sell well these days?
Does AT get a portion of my amazon purchase since I accessed amazon here?
Do I sound like I've been living in a cave for the last five years?
Your answers are most welcome - Thank you
