Hello Gentlemen,

Just a little update on my progress.

I've only been doing magic for a couple of months now, but I have been bitten by the wonderful skills of the slight of hand magician's.

I bought myself both the 4 DVD set's.
"The Royal Road To Card Magic" & "Complete Card Magic"
I must say, I find Gerry Griffin's teaching methods fantastic, & it has helped me tremendously.
Not wanting to blow my own horn here, but I am a very quick learner, & I am already on to the expert, & expert Extreme stages.

I love the DVD way of learning, for me it works.
So my question is.
Could anyone direct me to more value for money slight of hand DVD's please.

ATB.

CArl... :D

Thank's Stephen,

I notice it's United States.
How long does shipping take to the UK?
Or can I get it over hear?
& I am now using good quality decks.

A must, I agree.

You should be able to get it here (ask your local dealer), shipping from USA is fine these days. I normally wait 7-10 days.

Pretty much anything by Dan & Dave if you want something flashy... and Lennart Green if you want something classy.

I am no longer in the close-up magic business but when i was performing i always used new bicycle cards for each show and vipers for the more flashy stuff! I do know that the devo cards you will find in the link are very good for XCM work.
