Real or Fake? Kem Narrow Super Jumbo [Circle Backs] (1 Viewer)

[justsomedude]

Just scored these on eBay. Sealed, brand new, never used. I was the only bidder (seller didn't implement any of the popular keywords).

Never heard of Kem "narrow super jumbo" before.

Is this a sweet score at $16 shipped? Or did I just buy a counterfeit setup?

Probably legit. I had an old set of Kems that were called magnin sized. They were slightly smaller than bridge size.

If it is only one deck $16 is not a great deal imo, but they are legit.

Two decks. Full setup.

I can't fathom why anyone would counterfeit cards?

There’s been some posts here about it before. This one comes to mind...

I guess some fake circle backs have been known to come out of China.

If something is popular enough, and sells out in the open market at times, somebody is trying to knock it off

I've been looking for a set up of these, nice score!

Any chance you'd trade it for my regular index set up?

5 years ago I probably would have. But most of my players are now well into their 40s (and beyond) and standard index is just too hard to see across the table.

All the local games I play in have pretty much switched to jumbo index over the last few years, and I doubt we’ll ever go back. Just a part of aging.

They good. I have a few sets of these myself. For 16 usd it's a score. They even have casino mark.

Thanks!

Question: What's a "casino mark"?

 

[surfik]

Blue or green sticker dot. Cards were bought for poker room.
