I had a very lucky day today! I bought my very first deck about 15 years ago, which was the Mythic Tarot. I unfortunatly had to dispose of it because it got water damaged beyond repair, and I was horrified to do that. I recently picked up looking at tarot again recently and I just happen to be in a used book store here in Oklahoma City and what do I find.....the same set I had before!!!! I recently learned this deck was out of print so of course when I found it today, I had to buy it. I feel like I'm getting a second chance with this deck. Definitely going to take better care of it compared to the first time! Some of the cards has some wear and tear, one card is bent on one edge but overall, the deck is in very decent condition. It still had the cloth and book too so I was very pleased to bring this baby home, and for a very good price! Katey, I love your channel by the way. Keep up the great work!

I once asked my collector friend, at her New Years party , if she had the Magical Tarot. She exclaimed ,"No!I can't find it anywhere, not on line.. " I said, "There's one at Half Price Books, right now, or, at least, last night." "Les, I'm going to Half Price Books!"😂

Such a great video! I have a ridiculous amount of decks and have no deck guilt. I was so solitary for so long that by the time I started interacting with the tarot community there were so many oop decks that I wanted and I used many of these techniques. I will keep a deck in mind and stalk eBay or other places until I find it at a price I can handle.

Great tips! I have only searched eBay for out of print tarot decks and Italian Sibilla decks. "Vintage"" was one of the keywords I often search for out of print decks. Although, there's always one out of print that shows up for really cheap: Miss Cleo Tarot! The condition of the cards is sometime I would take into account. More having to do with how worn down the cards are/flimsy the card stock is. The book is always a great bonus but never a requirement for me for an out of print deck. I have bought the German and Spanish editions of Lisa Hunt's Fairytale Tarot through Amazon Germany and the regular Amazon for only $25.00. Keep in mind that the German version has a white border on it. Not sure why it's only this version of the deck, but it was bad enough to make me want to get the Spanish edition.

Another way you can get old decks is if you can find the pictures of the front and back of tarot deck on line in a decent size to print at home or a custom card printer. As long as you are not making money off of doing so. For me I want the Universe Cards from Kay Stopforth. I got the book for the cards a couple of years back without the cards. And the pictures she uses were NASA photographs of space. So I am planning on finding those exact NASA photos or similar and making my own deck for the Universe Tarot though the Making Playing Cards. com. All I have to do is design the back of the cards and I am golden from there.

On top of it my friend got it for me :) Exactly as you described it- the lady didn't really check how much it's worth and just wanted to get rid of some of her old stuff. Tarot trading was the best in this regard for me, but also the tip about checking other languages is an awesome one. Thank you for the video K! Very helpful

I know this was about 4 years ago. I won't ever have a lot of money 30 Max's but my question here is how can you tell older versions by comparison of isbn or another way. I see some decks that looks the same but have different isbn? I need to learn so not to be fooled. I do want a older deck for the energy that will come from it. I am 63 and now so drawn to Tarots and want a few decks to broaden by intuition in my reading. Thank you Katey for all your knowledge and sharing your experience. You are so young and experienced.

The other thing with Amazon prices is they often amount to "what's the absolute most I can see someone paying for this? Add $50!" (Or more, sometimes...) There was a kids' book I really wanted when my own kid was small, had been out of print for around a decade. Amazon always had a couple of copies for around £120-£150, whereas on eBay sold copies were usually going for around £70 (having mostly started at around a fiver). It eventually came back in print, way too late for my kid to enjoy, but I was super happy when my mum got me a copy for probably five quid or so!

Thanks for the tips! Its true that watching a lot of videos on youtube can lead you straight to an out of print deck. I usually give up hope on it entirely when this happens, but ill just keep my eye open, because you never know. Another factor for me is i live in Canada. So shipping costs and USD prices really come into play for me and usually end up skyrocketing a deck price. That is generally the reason why i keep to amazon for my tarot purchases. That being said the small city that i live in has one book store, so i always check in there to see if something is available. Thanks for the video! Love watching. :) If you have any recommendations for some facebook pages that offer trading etc that would be greatly appreciated.

I am interested in some of the baba studio OOPD however they do hold there value. I have my eyes out for some of the original Prague decks and Victorian romantic however I know the value of the deck isn't $300 which I've seen it go for. But fishing and patients will prevail 😀
@KateyFlowers
8 жыл бұрын
Baba decks definitely do hold value. I think that's because most are limited editions and they are so well known for their quality. However, they are a really good example of the fact that decks often came back into print! They've just reprinted Prague, which was highly collectable and expensive not too long ago, and I've heard they may be rereleasing the Baroque Bohemian Cats... So, I wouldn't personally be likely to fork out huge amounts of cash for their old decks because, who knows, in a year or three it make be available again!

I'd recommend joining some FB groups, such as Tarot Swap or Tarot Marketplace, or check out tarotforum.net Checking eBay and Amazon can help you get an idea of a fair price, but at the end of the day, a deck is only worth what someone is willing to pay! There are no hard and fast rules... ask for offers in groups/forums and go with whatever feels reasonable to you.

Nyckelpiga A great way to see the current value of any collectible is to do an "Advanced" search on eBay for only "Completed" items. Auctions that were actually purchased will appear in green (the dollar value). This gives you a good idea as to what amount people are actually paying, and not some outrageously inflated sky-high value that some (not serious) sellers just list as a whim since it is free to list.
