I have been buying each of the equipment decks as they have become available at my LFGS (Local Friendly Gaming Store). However, after looking through up coming decks online. I wanted to take this time to make a suggestion for an equipment deck slightly out of the ordinary. I have noticed on the message boards a number of campaigns set in more advanced eras. Some such as pre-renaissance, Steam-punk Victorian, post-renaissance, and of course general science-fiction. How about a couple of equipment decks covering these eras. You could include such weapons as blunderbuss, flintlock pistol, dueling pistol, bayonet, hand cannon, musket, print press, Royal Ball attire, eye patch, treasure map, and even psionic themed "magic" items. Of course, I haven't even touched upon the science fiction themed equipment. Such as blaster, laser rifle, disruptor, force screen necklace, bionic arm, bionic eye, anti-gravity boots, jump pack, vibro blade, mono-whip.
I could go on and on. I think with Paizo's excellent job they have done on the fantasy equipment decks. You guys would do just as great a job on these other genres. Who knows perhaps with advent of the Pathfinder campaign and its new book out this Summer. Perhaps equipment decks based from each of the Inner-Sea Kingdoms would be cool too. Rather than totally different equipment (as suggested in the differnent era decks) to same equipment with different artis renditions for each of the Pathfinder Kingdoms or societys (Hellknight armor anyone). Just some suggestions from a long-time fan of all of your equipment decks.

I would fairly appreciate a steampunk deck, too
Never purchased or used any of the card decks. How are they used?
They're designed with flexibility in mind, so there's no one answer to that. In my campaign, players have cards for pretty much all of their equipment. (We don't bother with cards for stuff that the party plans to sell right away.)
There are no stats—the backs of the cards have an area where you can write notes. Typically, we use this space to record stats, so we might write "Natural Armor +2" on an amulet, or record the number of charges remaining on a wand; if it's an unusual item, we might jot down what book it's from, and what page number the full writeup is on.
