I am completely new to magic, never tried a trick in my life before and certainly have never performed infront of an audience in the past.
I have started off with the aim of only learning a few tricks that I can perform in the pub/bar or street which leads me to coin magic more than anything, as carrying a pack of cards around with me on a night out doesn't really appeal too much to me.
So...The other day I decided to bite the bullet and purchased the Criss Angel "Coin in a can" DVD. Well, what can I say? I was really worried that I would purchase something I could never do in a million years and that I could have wasted my money. It arrived yesterday and after 2 hours, I had got a really good flow going, it may not be as good as some of you guys but it's getting there! (I think


I had my eyes on the Subterfuge / Raven X2 as my next purchase due to having a rough idea on what it is, although clueless on how its done. I would love to make a coin disappear into "thin air" so to speak. When I mentioned this, "dat8962" kindly advised me that this might not be the best next purchase

Could anyone kindly point/advise me on where I should go next? As in, what my next purchase should be or where I should be looking?
Many thanks
