 I have nothing against the seller - I've bought a few decks from him.
I'm just unsure of the whole pirating issue & what is & isn't pirated??

Here is a link to an ebay auction of the Victoria Regina deck.

http://cgi.ebay.com/Oop-Victoria-Regina-Tarot-cards-Deck-Brand-new-/390211597384?cmd=ViewItem&pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item5ada6c7448

I want this deck, but don't want to buy it if it's pirated.
It's the:

Please note that this item will be sent from Taiwan .

78 cards,a Chinese instruction book and an outer box.The cards have both Chinese and English titles.

 As far as I know it's legit, and baby_dream is an ace seller, so that strengthens my belief.

But note the English and Chinese titles - that puts some people off. Ask baby_dream for its provenance. She always answers. (I'll point her to this thread !)

ETA she got back to me and says:

This was officially released in Taiwan by SPP. So there are both Chinese and English Titles. AS I know, it was out of print now.

 Honestly this had nothing to do with B_D.
I've bought a few decks from her & never worried about that.
I'm just trying to figure out how to tell which decks are pirated & which are not.
The extra language thing is what threw me.

 As far as I know, B-D never sells pirated stuff.

What I meant was - you want, she find; then she emails regularly with temptations, you end up broke.

Believe me, I know this. :f

I have her sourcing a deck I can't afford RIGHT NOW  :cl
