Default Are COPAG cards as durable and nice as KEM cards?

I really like the COPAG designs on the back but I don't like the "font" that the letters and numbers use. Are there any other manufacturers out there that make KEM quality cards? (I'd just buy KEMs but they are hard to find)

The robo-British salesman at that site is awesome.

Dal Negro cards have been getting some good reviews lately. Check out Home Poker Tourney, they have reviews and pictures on just about all of the plastic playing cards available.

I just ordered the Gemacos from them.

The web site is very nice and proffessional looking, but here's a line on the web site that makes you think this is a one-man operation:

<font color="red">We will be closed March 4th-13th. Orders placed today will be SHIPPED ON MARCH 14TH. Thanks!
</font>

Geez... I've been wondering what to do with my site when I go away next month. Perhaps I'll try that! LOL

Anyway, being a one man operation doesn't make it a bad thing. It definitely reduces the number of screw-ups when you don't have to rely on other people to get things done - people who don't have a vested interest in the company.

No... I wasn't trying to imply that there is anything wrong with being a one-man operation at all!

One of the things I love about the internet is the ability to set up a store front with very little capital expenditure and give the impression that you are a serious business. This is great for capitalism!

I was just pointing it out for fun, really (I did order cards from them). If I was trying to look like a "player", though, I might want to reword that... perhaps:

<font color="blue">"We are moving to a new location on March 4th and due to the extensive effort in relocating to a new, bigger facility, we won't be able to begin our shipping operation until March 14th.

We appologize for the inconvenience and to make up for it, anybody that places an order during that time will receive a free cut-card."
</font>

If you don't work there already, you should go into marketing.

I've had my copags for about 3 months (I think) and they still feel, look and play great...I personally vouch for the bridge size (larger index) Copag styled** Copag cards (and they look damn good too).

** There is a particular deck called Copag style
