I was not only born then, I had had a fatal moment as a teenager in the kid's bedroom of a friend of my parents, where a completely incompetent child did me a Celtic Cross with a miniature Rider-Waite. It was a useless reading and I was hooked.
Maybe the fundies are right when they say these cards are evil - but for all the wrong reasons! One exposure and you're hooked - that's worse than cigarettes! So I repeat, don't buy any decks!
Oh, Gregory, you know perfectly well how old I am. I think you'll find, if amongst your shoulder-deep stockpile of decks you have a calendar somewhere, that I must have been born in or around 1960.
Which means my brain must have turned to jelly by now.
Which means if I like Tarot, you can be sure it's not a good thing top like.
Stop buying decks - it only encourages the publishers.

Yes - I checked after I posted. It looks like we may have bought our first decks ON THE SAME DAY !!!!!
Now if THAT isn't a de-enabling I don't know what is !!!! Anyone who wouldn't mind being one of us sure as hell won't want to be both !!!!!

Thanks for the input re the IJJ Le Fanu, I know you're a big fan. I also know I don't NEED it. So, I've decided that what I'll do is just let it linger on my non-urgent wish list and if I happen to see it somewhere second hand or on e-bay then I'll get it. But only if it has French titles!
That's it! I'm de-enabled for life. 
Seriously though, I'm actually pretty content with the decks I have just now. I really don't have much on my wish-list except for out of print stuff (and an old edition of the IJJ). I'm thinking of going cold turkey on the whole deck-buying thing. Perhaps I should swear off new purchases until Christmas. I've sure got enough new stuff to last me at least until then. So, to help me through I'll remember gregory and nisaba, imagine becoming BOTH of them and that should do the trick!

I agree. I got mine for 99p on ebay and that's all I do with it too. Lots come up on uk ebay, and I mean lots, and they don't go for muh money at all. Which shows its lack of real value.

ps I actually don't know what language the titles are in... have to look.

The 60s, 70s and 80s, and probably even 90s, editions have the French titles. Recently though, for some reason, the titles were changed to English...

My set is 'distributed by Waddingtons' and quite old so probably not English then.
It was CHEAP.
Another cheap set going http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/tarot-cards-1...828QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_Metaphysical_New_Age
They come along ALL THE TIME. People don't really want them. Nor do you.

Had one - charming images, but the color is stark and garish.
Juno and Jupiter? Huh?
I traded mine. There are many nicer decks, if you must buy something.
