Hi Guys long time no speak. I have been very busy recently and out of the country. Howeever I made my first ever purchase from ellusinist last week predominantly becuase ofthe new DVDS being released by Banachek at a huge discount especially with the current exchange rate. Anyway I decided to get the download which I thought at the time was expensive compare to the penguin downloads. The revolution Download was very professional and whilst it may be a variation of a trick in Bobo I was impressed. I don't know whether it was value for money, but hey it is interesting.

Cheers

Simon

P.S. Discoman I haven't forgotten about the Raven deal, jsut need to get round to sending you a price.

bale nice start to a site may i sugest an elmsley count with jumbo cards please.
i'd like to have my own site but cant afford it yet as a lot of sites wont host a site advertising a comercial venture with out chargeing you a fortune.

most coin stuff uses known principles that may or may not have variations you pay for the routine not the slieghts so don't feel cheated if you liked the routine then you payed a fair price.

This thread probably died ages ago but....

I have bought revolution as I told discoman....

in MY opinion, it its excellent, aand a very good video. I bought the download, and also with the exchange rate only worked out to £10.90.

I tried out on my girlfriend (whom has to endure my practising constantly) and because I dont have all that much patience, i show her when I havent practiced so much and she works them out. but she didnt get this. not at all, she was amazed :-)

But this is easy to do. No gimmicks no wires its NOT the melt and it is clean finishing. you can use someone elses coin too.

the people thinking its rubbish can probably see its a variation. but because you show your hands empty both sides straight after (no misdirection, no palming and having to misdirect to put hand in pocket) the ordinary person will be more amazed. they haven't a clue!!!

Hope this helps you make up your mind,
dont blame me if you dont like it though ;-)

its a cruel world out there m8 so the word is no but since your at the computer try doing a search for the french drop, the retention vanish and the classic palm.
get a friend to give you a budwiser bottle cap or similar sized cap with a rough edge, armed with thease you will be able to perform amasing feats of magic.

sorry to hear about your situation but we cant give away secrets here especialy as someone has spent there own time and money developing it and bringing it to the market place, I'm sure you would,nt want me to rip you off if you invented a new trick, good luck on your journey.

Gee, for that price, you could have picked up a copy of Bobo's Modern Coin Magic and not only got that trick, but hundreds of others, as well as routining advice with a section of premade routines in the back. Further, you would have learned about misdirection, psychology and trick coins. You would also have been given a couple of classic "Miser's Dream" routines, which are immensely more entertaining than a single trick. Oh, did I mention that what I've told you Bobo's has above is only a scratch in the surface of the book?

But, if you feel you got a good deal, more power to you.

Mike.

Aaaargh!!!!

Thanks for that Mike!!! hehe

Well, i saw it and had to buy it, you know magicians, impulse buying. It was a nicely presented video, and I know i should have that book.

Nevermind, we live and learn
Thanks for the info on the book though, will give it a look for sure

Mark :)

If I had all the money back that I spent on impulse magic buys at your age, Mark, I could buy Jeff McBrides entire stage act! :lol:

Don't feel bad. Again, if you feel that you got your money's worth, then you did. Like you said, we live and we learn. In fact, that impulse buying is an important part of growing in the industry, in my opinion. I kind of miss those days... :(

I really don't know what Ryan's on about though...

Mike.
