Update!

Postby celebrity » Sep 27th, '10, 16:42

Just a quick update e-mail regarding the Beyond ESP3 deck. The printers had requested a copy of the original deck so that they could be sure of the pairing of the cards.

After several e-mails they have confirmed that the deck has now been received and this is being passed to the artwork team who will construct a proof sheet for us.

They expect that the proofs will be dispatched to us within a week. As soon as these have been received and verified which will happen the same day; they can then begin the printing process.

Although we expect the printing to be sooner this will take a maximum of four weeks and delivery will take place within a week of completion.

We have spoken to several top mentalists who are working on possible ideas and if we receive any they will be included with all pre-ordered decks!

We will keep you updated as we get more info!

Kind Regards Michael

I bought the betond ESP 2 deck ages ago, this is probably the best ESP deck I have seen. I have already placed an order for the new ESP 3 deck, that was 3 moths ago I think! patiently wating!!

I use these as real ESP test cards as well, because they have plain backs no-one ever thinks they are marked and they don't look like magic props!

Here is a clip of me using the cards to test some teenagers, I believe in real ESP/telepathy. I do this routine for adults they never get it right, but kids seem to weird?

I just got an e-mail notification saying I will recieve my ESP 2-(refill) deck?
Is this right? I placed an order for this ages ago, but it said out of stock. So I placed an order for ESP 3 instead? So ESP 2 refills are available again?

Re Orders

Postby celebrity » Nov 29th, '10, 18:01

Beyond ESP3 would have been sent out to you in place of Beyond ESP2 however if you pm me your order numbers i'll investigate this for you.

To be honest there isn't a vast amount of difference between them. Since the USPCC lost the artwork and directed future prints to their Spanish counterpart we were hesitant in putting it out again as Beyond ESP2 as we could not guarantee that they would be identical and did not want people to purchase them on this basis.

I feel that the quality of the card stock is actually better on this third run, the box has been updated along with a red/black double backed card and access to additional routines.

Hope you enjoy them!

Best Wishes Michael

I finally received these today and i've got to say, it was well worth the wait. They ooze quality and the marking system is so sly that you could pin a tail to it and call it a fox. :lol:

I'm going to have some fun with these :D
