I really love these cards however my cards had worn out and when I ordered a new pack the book and cards were faded so I have sent them back. Hopefully it is just that the publishers had run out of ink and didn't realise it. The seller who sold them to me had no excuse though because the book, although new, was not sealed so they would have seen that the whole thing was faded. However, even if the previous was an oversight and the facing was an accident, the book and cards are not made out of the hardy stuff that was originally owned by me. It's not flimsy but it isn't as strong. What a shame. Everyone I know that has seen these cards loves them and it's a shame that they are now on the cheap side. The name Titania does not stand for quality!
