Well Played, Sir

In this day and age, when a swipe of styling gel and a wrinkled pair of jeans suffice for a formal evening out, the modern man could stand to step up his game by leaning on the lessons taught by old school gents. You'll always have something up your sleeve when you arm yourself with this handsome deck of cards designed to take your tack from déclassé to high class! This fetching set is there to help the 21st-century fellow avoid folly by assessing common fashion faux pas and the often-overlooked rules of etiquette, decorum, and gift giving. Look to the aces for the proper way to enjoy a cigar or that glass of top-shelf whiskey, the 10 of diamonds for how to tie a proper Windsor Knot, and consult the king of clovers for advice regarding what may well be the most fearsome task of all: meeting your future in-laws. Featuring 52 hints, cues, guides, and aids, this cheeky set is the ideal gift to woo that mild-mannered mister in your life. Printed on 350gsm matte-finish cardstock, and enclosed in a black foil-stamped chipbox. Made in China.

I purchased this card deck for a 17-yr-old boy after his knee surgery. I'm impressed with the quality of the deck. The topics, however, aren't suited for anyone under the 18-21 age range. I.e. cards about smoking and drinking. Although tastefully done, I'm not sure what his mom would have thought about her son receiving tips on smoking. These cards provide tips on manners, dress, and overall attitude. Think pre-1960. I'm hanging on to this deck so I can give it instead as a graduation present.

This was definitely an impulse purchase tacked on to a larger order. When I received it I was pleased with it. What a fun idea, and a great gift for my guy. Then I remembered how much I paid for it. What was I thinking?! This is a deck of cards we are talking about here. I have no complaints about the quality, but they are the same quality as any average deck you can buy at the corner store. Not made of any special materials. They come in a nice box, but that doesn't add THAT much value to the overall product. The suggestions are fun to read and entertaining, but again not adding much to the overall value - this product is not worth what UG is charging for it. It's a 5-star product for what it is, sure, but the value for the price is 1-star, hence my 3-star overall rating, and I would not recommend it to a friend *at this price*. I love this site because they are usually very reasonable on pricing, but they missed the mark big time with this one.

This gift was inappropriate

By DW

from Burlingame, CA

Comments about UncommonGoods Gentlemen's Card Deck:

After buying this presumably cool gift for my very grown-up 17 year old son, I was disappointed to see a card called "How to enjoy a cigar" and "Whiskey Tasting". Most inappropriate is the "Smoking" card: "A gentleman recognizes that his smoking habits might not be welcome around others. When smoking he should always ask permission of those around him, especially around women and children." WHY would you encourage smoking AT ALL. Most of the cards were great, encouraging manners & politeness, peacekeeping, charm, sincerity, honesty, confidence, and practical skills like Windsor knots and a firm handshake. Some were inclusive, like the "Pink" card, some were fairly sexist, like the "A-ten-hut" encouraging a gentleman to stand when a lady enters or exits the room. While I understand including some of these are great for adults, including how to pair a wine, you should make it abundantly clear this is not a gift for those under 21. I wish I'd known.

Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Merchant response:We're sorry the Gentleman's Card Deck is not what you expected! It is noted on the details tab of the item page that this product is meant for ages 21 and over. We'll try to make this easier to find in the future. We want you to love all products you receive from us, so rather than leave you with a bad hand, we've reached out to you via e-mail to make this right!
