I thought I had my CUPS under control, after my last big impulse purchase which consisted of Black Decks, Black Gaff Deck, Black Rising Deck, Black Deck Shell and some other bits and bobs from Ellusionist.
They look great though and the website told me I needed them!
Plus the colony of dust in my magic drawer has made a lovely home on top of them, so it was worth it wasn't it!
Seriously though, I thought afterwards, 'why on earth did I do that?? - When am I ever going to use them'??
Never mind - I'll learn one day - although after reading Vic's post, I'm not so sure!!
Anyway, the reason for the title of this post is that after reading some rather positive reviews for the ghost deck, I've just had another look at them, and I actually quite like them now. Plus the king of the dust particles in my drawer has told me he needs an extension to his palace.
(Sorry - it's the heat!)
Actually digressing for a minute, I've since read lots of negative things about Ellusionist.com and have realised how overpriced a lot of there material is. Also, I've really been put off by the cheesy, 'get rich quick' style of marketing. Saying that though, I have Brad's "AmbitiouXs Card" DVD and I've learnt so much from it. It's been a real help, and he does offer some really good comments. However, someone since said that Daryl's DVD is THE one to study from - but for now, Brad had come up with a pretty good guide for me to start with. He also actually credits his moves to the originators!
