I'm wondering if anyone else has encountered this? I opened up Star Spinner and found many of the corners to be torn - to be clear, its just the top layer, not through the entire card. Then I ordered a new deck and its got the same problem. This is clearly happening when the cards are being punched out of their larger sheets. Are cards usually punched out, rather than cut?

 

Obviously I haven't heard any other mentions of this problem but.. Are all Star Spinners like this? Are they in a bad run? It seems kind of pointless to just keep requesting new decks and have the same problems over and over.

 

The issues are quite small, but they're physically torn. I have to handle them and shuffle them. Will I cause them to tear more? Or just the opposite? Perhaps after shuffling they'll just kinda clean off any be ok.

 

Not sure what my next move is here.

 

I ordered my deck from Amazon last month, and it doesn't have those issues. If you're not returning the deck as defective, you should. Did you acquire the second deck from the same place as the first one? If so, maybe they got a bad batch of decks.

Both of mine are from Amazon. If that's where you got yours also I guess I'll just keep trying, thanks for letting me know!

Actually, I am wrong. I got that deck from Barnes & Noble. Sorry about that.

Ha, well I've got one more on the way, and we'll see what happens. I had to call them to send me a new one without sending the old ones back. (Prefer to limit my trips to UPS for literally mailing back garbage.)

Maybe not total garbage. Could they be trimmed away?
If so, I'm sure somebody would want it. 

Well if I mail them back to Amazon (which I have to do if I don't want to pay for all of the damaged copies) I'm pretty sure  - though I can't know for sure - that they don't re-sell open and knowingly damaged decks. So I don't mean now that they're complete garbage, but once I mail them back...

 

And to your actual question - totally. I always forget about people trimming down cards (because the idea terrifies me).
