They do last longer, but I found the high cost, well, too high. I bought
some pinochle cards, and had to buy two decks if we were going to play
double deck. $40 for pinochle cards was too much when comparing it to $4.

game
Hi Charles:
That is true. Although, there are a couple of good reasons to buy the
accessible decks from Independent Living Aids etc. One is that the
cards are bigger and have large print on them so they are easier to
read if playing with a low vision player. The other is they make the
cards out of a more durable material so the braille tends to stand out
and last longer than on a standard deck. I agree neither is really a
good reason to pay the higher cost for the cards, but there are some
advantages in doing so which I thought I would point out.
Cheers!

them to do it. I used to do it all the time. The heck with those $20
decks!
