I just got an email from a place I'd inquired about printing up comic books from. They've just started doing tarot decks. It's so new that the info isn't on their website yet -- http://www.onebookshelf.com/ -- it's going to be under their 'drive through cards and tarot' page, but the basics in the email were:
Basic nformation
Our Tarot cards are 2.75” x 4.75” and are printed on our Premium stock. Print cost is $0.17/card ($0.095/card for high-volume orders).

We so appreciate your patience in our finally adding Tarot to our card offerings. And we hope you’re as excited about Tarot as we are!
---------------------------
"High volume" is 100 decks of 50 cards (5,000 cards in other words).
Might be worth a good look-see. Now that Printer Studio is out of the running for most artists here, that generally just left Game
Crafter but if these guys are competitive, it's worth checking out.
Here's a bit more info, I've only glanced at the site at this point, need to do more checking over there.
-------------
Premium Stock: 11.6-pt. thickness, 320 gsm black core card stock from French paper manufacturer Arjo-Wiggins. This silk-finish stock is similar to, but superior to, the stock used on popular trading card games. It's slightly thinner for easier shuffling, but dense to give better rigidity and snap than thicker stocks. It's the best playing card stock we've found.
Rounded Corners / Low-gloss UV Coating / Double-sided: US Poker, European Poker, US Bridge, Mini, Tarot.
Square Corners / Low-gloss UV Coating / Double-sided: Tile 6" x 6", Tile 8" x 10".
