The usual advice is to buy what you like.  More specifically I would say don’t get caught up in a completionist mindset and spend time and money buying up all the decks in a particular range.  The theory11 Monarchs or Cherry Casino decks are the sort I’m thinking of. 

Having said that.. I note you have a Cardistry Touch deck.  The paper that brand’s decks were originally printed on became associated with those that were made for other brands, to the extent that, say, RAVN Sol and Mani playing cards were sometimes referred to as being on “Touch” stock. That was Cartamundi’s ‘ Cambric 310gr Black Core paper with 9C² varnish’.  Your deck was printed by USPCC.  

So that’s a long, roundabout way of me saying maybe try to get hold of a deck printed on the elusive ‘Cambric 310gr Black Core paper with 9C² varnish’.  Probably the most affordable Cardistry Touch deck - the last printed for them by Cartamundi on that paper - is the Dérive deck (the black one).  If you can find it…
