sorry I'm afraid not unless it is a trick that has a gimick like hopping halfs and your selling the gimick and then only in the aproved trading section.
if in doubt pm a mod.

sorry I'm afraid not, please take some time to read the forum rules most if not all your questions will be answered.

MagicDiscoMan's quite right, trading is only done in the Trading Area and is just for specific types of trade by approved members only. It's not because we want to be awkward but there were so many problems over trading in the past that we had to limit such activity.

Just ordered mine, should be getting it on Tuesday... I've seen it done with a 5 euro note, so I'll get back to you all when I've tried it.

Yeah, I've just done it with a 5 EURO, I moved the small 5 over to the other side.... It looks cool even practising in front of the miror. It is much easier with a dollar though...

Bill doesn't look so good!

Postby rosariorose9 » Jul 3rd, '07, 18:29

I posted this in the "Support" forum. There were plenty of 'views', but no replies - so, thought I'd try posting it here:

"I don't want to give anything away, so I'll be vague (perhaps too vague?) at this point; but, here's my problem. Something is not being reproduced in sufficient detail using the files which Daniel provides. It comes out somewhat 'blurry', even though I'm doing it EXACTLY as he demonstrates. Is this because bills are made of a cloth type material (rather than paper)? Any suggestions? Feel free to pm me if you don't feel comfortable posting your response."

Can anyone help me with this? I know that one member posted that after he did the effect his specs examined the bill with a magnifying glass! Unless I'm doing something wrong, there's no way this would 'fly.'

Thanks.

When I do it, it comes out fine. It should look correct at first, but if you were to keep it a while, it could look blurry.... I think something isn't quite right with the thing you use to create the thing we are talking about.

Brookish,

Thanks for the reply. I don't however believe that there's anything wrong with the file. When I print onto normal paper, it's PERFECT. It's only when I print on a bill that it loses detail.

fraud problem

Postby benAbbuyah » Jul 5th, '07, 00:34

rosrariorose9 - i had the same problem (i created a topic several months ago about it). i have come to the conclusion that it was the equipment i was using, which is several years old. i am not certain about this, because i have not had the opportunity to test it on a newer 'model.' However, like you i got perfect results on paper but not on the real thing.

although daniel strongly advises you not to use a certain kind of equipment (you'll hopefully know what i mean if you look again at the video), out of frustration i did try it and the results were MUCH better.

hope this helps,
elisha

elisha,

Thanks so much for your reply. I've been unable to find the thread which you started on this issue, but I'll keep looking. In the meantime, I'm going to try to find some other equipment (if you know what I mean!) to try it on.

Thanks again.

My first use of my equipment yielded unacceptable results. So I changed two things. The first was how the item was physically used in the unit. The second was the unit set-up. On my second try the result I got was as good as I had hoped for.

One note (no pun intended) is that I have a little problem leaving the dollar with the subject. Its basically a defaced dollar at that point and I am not sure what will happen when he/she tries to spend it. You could keep it but they have put a mark on the back of the bill so I am not sure what use it is to you being it is defaced on both sides. Maybe stick in a tip jar when you get bad service???
