It may save you some money (but bear in mind, I cannot condone it, as it is the humble tax-payer who is losing out!)


Here's a funny story then. I buy my books and decks from a US dealer because they have a constant shipping rate, whatever you buy. The books are a little heavier so I don't pay that much shipping. I didn't say anything to them and they always send my package as a demo kit with insurance.
Last package was full of Card College and other books & dvds; so it arrived to the customs warehouse. I went there to get my package, they opened it asked me how much did it cost. I said like 70$, but she got the papers inside, and saw it was a demo kit which billed as a $1 package. Then she looked at me saying, "Next time, tell them to write a little more realistic price which will make sense." :)

I think I went too off-topic with this, sorry to interrupt your topic here, Seige. :oops:
And say hi to Eddie. :)

Just placed my order! All i can say is that if the service and products are as good as the customer service, i'll be one happy chappy!

I decided to try branching out into new areas of magic by adding a TT and a mega bertha to my brick of bikes. How could i turn down the opportunity when the prices are so good!!

We get a discount as TalkMagic members?! I didn't know that. How do we go about doing that? I'm off to buy Banacheks PSI series, so I might aswell support a fellow TM member!

In my oppinion NUMS is the best on-line magic shop I've ever dealt with. Highly reccomended. If NUMS sells it buy it from there.

Cheers,

sort of on topic and talking of tt in a general sense will you be stocking the cloaking device i can't use it myself but it would be a great piece of kit for a lot of mages who are having trouble with certain aspects of a tt. :wink: :wink:

Excellent stuff from the man with nothing up his sleeves! Will definitely be ordering again soon!

Any chance you'll be getting Stigmata any time soon?

I am looking at a whole bunch of Ellusionist stuff. (especially with the Blaine influx!)

However, Ellusionist don't give rights to DVD based effects to non-bricks and mortar shops, so looks a tad slim!

Although, saying that, I have stocks of Scorpion from E. and that all went fine (and it's predominantly DVD based)

I've always been one to hate to jumping on a bandwagon but I have to say that the service and products I've recieved from NUMS have been pretty damn brilliant. The STealth loops system is a fantastic IT tying system and I recently performed Omen to some strangers in a quiet pub and got such brilliant reactions.
NUMS is now made it to my favourites list and when C.U.P.S takes hold of me once again I know where I'll be travelling

... and talking of CUPS...

This weekend, I'll be adding a CUPS LOYALTY scheme for CUPS sufferers...

Every purchase gives you loyalty points, which can be used as discounts on future purchases. Some products will carry BONUS loyalty points.

It is designed to make CUPS a little more tolerable for one's fairer halves (Mrs Seige has no reservations about adding handbags to her ever growing mountain, but when it is ME who buys something, I get a rollocking!)

You KNOW when you're in CUPS denial, because you dread your credit card bill coming, and you have an active eBay account. ;)
