I'm still collecting them, though have to admit, they are quite expensive. The spreads in the magazine I find thoughtfully planned out and very good. Especially as they have been constructed to go along with the decks supplied.
I was tempted to stop getting them, but thought I've come this far, I'll keep going. It is a struggle financially though.
The only thing I don't like about Total Tarot, is that the decks supplied don't come with a LWB. I find that a bit annoying. The cardboard covers aren't very good quality either.
Nonetheless, the decks that I'll use from Total Tarot will sort of be my "back-up" decks. Or decks that I've already got that are in the nice boxes (for example), I can use the cheaper ones from Total Tarot instead, to save using my "special" decks.
