Love this deck!

I have been wanting this deck for quite song time and it doesn't disappoint. Beautiful crisp colors. I do think the cards are a bit thin as compared to other tarot cards I own, but it's not a deal breaker. They shuffle just fine. I've enjoyed the readings I've been getting with them. Highly recommend the deck.

Awesome deck! A Unique and Stylish Take on RWS Tarot

As a Rider-Waite-Smith loyalist, I was initially skeptical, but the Pulp Fiction Tarot cards truly impressed me! The artwork is modern yet thoughtfully aligned with traditional card meanings, making it both fresh and familiar. The deck itself is well-made with decent card stock, and the sturdy book-style box is a fantastic touch. I highly recommend this deck—especially for fellow RWS enthusiasts looking to expand their collection!

I really like these cards

I really like these cards and I use them often. I have over a 100 decks and i particularly like the decks that are pictures like this. Vintage I guess you’d say. I like interesting cards that stray from the norm. I am an artist and I really admire the different art work of cards. These cards my guides and spirits work very well with. Again it’s not so much the cards. It’s what who you’re working with in the other realms prefer and can work with. They like these.

Great but flawed

As tarot decks tend to do, this one follows Rider-Waite-Smith closely; but it is not a mere clone by any means. As far as the art goes, for me it is a bit of a mixed bag with most of the cards representing this theme perfectly and others being disappointing or even terrible (I really hate The Moon and Knight of Wands cards for example). Some of the exceptional cards would be The Magician, Ten of Swords, Eight of Cups, Five of Cups, Four of Wands, Six of Wands--to name a few. I would assume most people would not be bothered at all by the ones I dislike or bored by my favorites, but there you have it. One thing I really appreciate about this artwork is that the artificially distressed look is unique to each card; that's the kind of detail I really respect, since most often you will simply get an identical patina copy-pasted onto every single card. Here, each card is uniquely "roughed up" adding to the vintage vibe. I think it is really well done.As for the product itself though: (1) These cards are made of the cheapest and most easily distorted paper you could find; they are thin and bend incredibly easily. (2) The exterior of the box I really like--it looks like a beat up vintage book; however, the interior is really cheap cardboard and the booklet is cheap stapled paper, but the writing has a distinctive tone and seems to be very welcoming to people unfamiliar with the cards--I like it. (3) Lastly, I personally did not like the borders on these cards, which brings me to a story about how I liberated all this (mostly) wonderful art from the prison of borders...I ended up cutting all of these cards out BUT BE WARNED! these cards are absolutely the opposite of friendly to being cut and only those as stubborn or foolish as myself should do it. First of all, the art is square and does not have rounded edges to follow. More importantly, as I found out after I started cutting, was that the artwork is not all scaled to the same size, which means that it is impossible to conveniently shuffle the cards if you cut them to the borders of the artwork. The Magician and Fool were a bit larger than most cards and the entire suit of Swords is smaller than all the rest. The only thing that cooperated with my scheme to eliminate the borders was that the backing is a repetitive simple pattern that looks the same regardless of how you cut. So you have to REALLY want borderless cards to do what I did, but if you see the picture I took, I think there's still some merit to doing it. It really makes the cards look more like vintage collectibles: posters, magazines, adverts, etc. Personally, I do not regret doing it at all (and I promise I'm not just saying that) because this art really does look better borderless and it makes the artificial aging look even better. Basically, I can't shuffle this deck anymore (not easily) but I still like it more than when I could. I don't think I'll even mind the inevitable wear and tear to the corners as it will seamlessly meld with the style ;) You could even display them after you cut them out, but I like flipping through them too much.Overall, obviously I am happy to have the deck, but I could easily see someone going down to three stars simply because of the cardstock quality and cheapy interior of the box and booklet.
