You're Laura B, there really isn't anything at all wrong with the deck as it is now. My only gripe was that it wasn't what I expected, and the earlier runs were MUCH nicer....lol. Nevertheless, I'll gonna be checking periodically to see what happens.

Oh, I understand. I didn't mean to imply you're wrong to take issue with it. I would have been disappointed too.
But some folks like the newer stock, like Mand Maud... and it doesn't sound like it's sticky or weird or any of the things that we all hate in cardstock
I'm glad mine's one of the older ones though... at least I assume it is, it's not marked China, and it's thicker, about 1 and 3/8" thick. Though it occurs to me, I got it from someone in the Trading Forum so I don't know if it ever had a China sticker on it. But I think it's one of the older ones.
It's super nice cardstock, smooth and silky and matte, so whatever it is, I'm keeping it.
I bought mine a couple of weeks ago and if there's a way to get the shorter deck/older card stock from the company I'd love to exchange it. I'm really enjoying the one I have except that with my small hands the cards are a challenge to shuffle. Thank you for the updates!
If you have one of the new ones, my understanding is it's thinner, so you actually might want to hang onto it.
