Historically reserved only for the world's finest casinos, the Bee Stinger playing cards are now available in mint condition.

The US Playing Card Company introduced the world to Bee Stingers through exclusive distribution to casinos internationally. Today, we offer them to YOU for the first time in history, with premium Aristocrat stock.

Stinger borders were originally developed as a countermeasure against card cheating. The fade to white border looks ultra-smooth, elegant, and simple. Previously only available after use in casinos worldwide, these are brand new - sealed in cellophane.

The creative team at theory11 recognized the potential for Bee Stingers and decided to pursue the printing of the classic design - minus any casino logo(s) - in their original format, and offer them to the public for the first time. Let's just say, it wasn't easy.

We listened to your feedback on the first edition Stingers - and we used it to improve the stock, feel, and finish. Available in red and printed on the finest Aristocrat stock to ensure durability, fanning capability, and snap.

I love these cards! The faded borders look beautiful in fans, spreads, flourishes, and more. I wish they were still available!

One of the most beautiful decks I have EVER laid my hands on. The luxury feel on the ENTIRE deck is to die for. Every shuffle and fan feels so smooth and the design is AMAZING! Expect nothing less when you get your hands on these!

This has become my absolute favorite deck of cards I use to play around. The faded borders look absolutely wonderful. The Aristocrat stock, the darker shade of red, the box design... everything about this deck screams professional; one of the classiest decks I have ever seen. Best of all, the handling is top notch and has not worn down one bit even though I've used this deck pretty heavily for about two weeks now. No breaking in is required. I could go on and on about this deck, but I'll not bore you and just sum it up in three words: get this deck!

Black Stingers please! I love my stingers. The muted black-patterned back is great. My decks are getting really worn out, but each deck is $35 on eBay. If Theory 11 did another printing of the original black-backed stingers, I'd be buying a bunch of them.

When I first saw these on theory11 I fell in love with them but they were sold out completely; Imagine my elation when I found a couple of these decks at my local magic store! A Bee deck of cards with fade out borders is something to behold. The handling is superb so buy these now!

Best. Deck. Ever. Never loses handling, which is amazing. I threw a couple of these into my practice pile and they still handle better than most of my performance decks. They're simply beautiful. i would give this 6 stars if i could.

When I viewed the deck, I was a bit let down. From the reviews, they sounded stellar. For me they handled well, but were rather bland. Magicians probably love this deck, but as a collector and player, I wasn't that impressed and quite frankly don't understand all of the hype. Just my humble opinion.

White edging! That's what was missing for perfection!

The red Bee Stingers are some of the most fantastic playing cards I've ever come across in terms of ability to last. I've had these babies for a couple years now and damn if they aren't the best casino-based cards I own! They just stick between my fingers and slide in all the right places. I feel bad for you if you didn't pick these up when you had the chance. If they're ever re-released: BUY NOW.

Love this deck because of the way it feels in your hands and the way the design just fades away into the border.

I love the classic Bee design but sometimes the borderless design can get in the way of certain tricks. But not only did T11 just throw a border on some bee's, they took it a step further. They made the border fade out which simply looks fantastic.

I really like the look of the faded border on the stinger back. The deck is just as good as it looks.

This is the best Bee deck I have purchased. The faded away white boarder gives it a dreamy feel when fanning. The cards handle great with the special stock. It is simply elegant. Feels great!

Well all I can say about these cards is that they have a great feel, with the same classical look.

Love the back design and the way they handle. I have to say this is a really nice deck.

Faded border on Bee diamond back with aristocrat stock. What more do I need to say? Simply one of the best handling decks on the market.

Oh, I don't like Bee, but I really am fond of red Stingers :) Red metallic inks and recolored faces make me a fan of red Stingers! Also, the deck has an aristocrat stock, which makes them perfect for flourishing!

Red Stingers are absolutely amazing. Way better than the normal Bee decks and are worth every cent!

One of the decks that I practice and perform with. Fans great even with extreme use - awesome!

Playing cards placed in two categories! Very arty like the Rebels or Sentinels, yet very simple like the Wynn's or D&D's cards. These are the best of both worlds: simple, beautiful, purposeful and a great addition to any collection!

I love this deck because it breaks a border with normal Bee's - these have a border. There are so many more tricks that you can now do with this deck. For example, if you did the classic trick that many people know as "refined", you would be able to see the flipped over card easily. The reason I give it 4 stars is because I think it should come in multiple colors and the drastic fade on the edge. This is a great deck and you should definitely get it.

Great deck! I highly reccomend getting it!

The standard bee back has a nice look to it but due to the lack of borders, you cannot place a card upside down in it or people will see it. The Bee Stingers back has a nice faded border. A sudden straight border will make it look like a cheap copy of Bee but the faded look is much more elegant. The back designs of the Bee Stingers are still great for magic. The back design is very 'mesmerizing' to look at but the border does nothing to the effect. If you do the 'pass', there will be no difference with doing it with a normal Bee deck. The court cards are much nicer with the lack of blue or yellow as that makes it a very casual everyday deck. The emphasis on black, gray and red makes it much more "royal". The ace is just as nice, and the jokers - I'm glad I don't get a guarantee joker. The Bee Stingers are a definite upgrade in terms of looks from the Standard Bees. I did this review just to say why I will get it. The next one will be actually experiencing it's awesomeness.

I bought one of these decks like 6 months ago but didn't opened them. After I gave myself the opportunity to experience them I was blown away! These are my go-to cards for ANY occasion. I just simply love them! Oh and the price is very fair. For handling this is PERFECT and they look amazing

Excellent cards! 5 stars, no doubt. Those are my first Bees. I liked the design when I saw it and decided to buy them. They are great quality cards that you will use on special occasions. Plus you get double backer, and it's great!
