Just to set the record straight, very few TM members really brag about what they do but they sometimes have a laugh and joke about things which may appear to be a similar thing. Proper magicians don't brag, they just get on with the magic and let the audiences be the judge.
The main reason we don't give out secrets is that they aren't ours to give out - they belong to the inventors of the trick and we can't steal them any more than we could steal their physical possessions. If any member here has developed their own trick or routine then they would be quite free to share the details with anyone they choose.
The best way to get such secrets is to buy them from reputable suppliers -they aren't all that expensive and will last a lifetime. Hope that helps,
