Pay now, deliver in November. Hmmm... Is that when the penny drops, I wonder?

It looks like another reason to buy from a reputable dealer.

Let see.

From the chat on the website:

stage gimmick costs about $40.

close up is close to $30?

But, What does photoshop software cost?

hmm people are as unconvinced as i was

Nothing. Just downoad the free and fantastic open source GIMP. It runs on Windows as well as Linux.

He removed a post from his guestbook! Damn it. Somebody ppsted complaining about the x levitation saying how he stole 'insert name here's levitation and gimmick or something. And how comes this so called X levitation2 only uses a gimmick that can be found around your house?

'Key Points for Stage Levitation

- As high as 5 feet

- Do it completly sorrounded

- Levitate your assistant in laying down or standing up position



Key Points for Close-up Levitation

- As high as 3 or 4 feet

-Great for walkaround, close up, anything!

- The gimmick will take about 30 minutes to build

BONUS

Effect- A glass, watch, pen basically any lightweight object is placed onto the table, all you do is concentrate and the object begins to move from the middle of the table around the table and you can even cause the object to fall over the edge.

BONUS #2

X LEVITATION 2

-Extremely easy to perform

-The gimmick can be found around the house'


Sigh. Aparantly he also stole kevin parkers trick and sold that as something else. Time for me to e-mail him.

Well, i emailed him. The answer he gave was 'it does not have to be against a wall, its on freewebs cause i dont want this getting to popular
'

Just to make a serious point, i know a couple of people are considering getting this, i would be very careful. A five foot levitation for this price is simply not going to happen. You pay thousands of dollars / pounds for such an effect.

The stage levitation seems to be the 'best' one of the bunch, but it seems somewhat redundant to me. So it doesn't use wires. What's the most common assumption made by people? Wires. You're on a stage, there will always be people who will think it's wires.

Look, i know for a FACT that you need somebody else to help you with levitations. I asked him laods of questions but he only seemed to reply to one each time, so i had to send about five emails. All of my questions were answered apart from if someone else was needed. I asked it again and have still got no reply.

I have it on good authority that this X-Levitation is a scam by some 12 year old kid... it's created a rather loud stir at the Magic Cafe and word's getting out.

I've worked with major illusions for most of my younger life and even created award winning magic -- you're not going to do what this kid is leading you to believe you can do for that price... not and be safe and/or practical.

Thank you so much for taking the time to back me on this! i was talking to an illusion designer and this person has not stopped laughing yet

Over at the Cafe there's talk of the indoor one being a direct rip off of someone else's work. I suppose we'll have to wait until November, but why the delay I have no idea.

Besides, aren't there enough levitation effects out there already?

if this 'illusion' works as claimed then i will dance naked on top of Blackpool tower while performing a book test

Lol stephenmagic, make sure if you do you'll stick it on youtube!
Actually, i thought as i had some birthday money [in miscellaneous somewhere] that i'd get a levitatio neffect. i know so many people have asked this but could someone mkaybe reccomend something that they have or hgave used before in that thread? I was thinking maybe the elevator 2 but i have no clue.

If it sounds too good to be true it invariably is!

If anyone does buy this then perhaps I can interest them in buying my winning ticket in the Nigerian National Lottery? A nice man just emailed me out of the blue to say I'd won over $4,000,000 and I'm prepared to sell the winning reference and phone numbers for a mere $50,000 - cash only, of course .
