Frank Garcia's Books?

Postby Liam » Feb 1st, '12, 18:02



Hi all,

Does anyone know where I might be able to pick up a copy of Frank Garcia's million dollard card secrets, and or, super subtle card miracles?

I have checked most places, and no where seems to have any. I guess this is because they are out of print? Seems strange that such a highly regarded book wouldn't be picked up for re-printing.

I have seen a few copies on ebay, but they are going for stupid money.....100 pounds plus.

So if anyone has got any idea where I can find a copy of either one of these books at a reasonable price, please let me know.


Regards,

Liam.

It looks like your going to need to pay big bucks to get hold of these. They are good books but over rated in my view considering the prices on ebay. They don't hold any great secrets from what I've read.

They are worth what ever people are willing to pay.

And perhaps they don't hold great secrets in todays world but some of the material was incredibly fresh and new once upon a time and everything is still workable and very effective.

I would suggest you check with http://www.magicbooksbypost.co.uk/ but their website seems to be acting very oddly at the moment.

MBBP's webite *does* load (eventually), but I've just had a look, and they don't appear to have any of the Garcia titles on stock at the moment

Thanks for the replies guys.

Yes, I have checked a few places, but no where seems to have any, and those that do are charging silly money for them. I'd like a copy, but I'm not so desperate that I'm willing to pay a hundred odd pounds for a book. I really do find it beyond strange though, how no one has bothered to pick up Garcia's books for re-printing, considering how sought after and how much demand there is for second hand copies.............especially when so much crass is published in books today. :?

What I can get, for a reasonable prices by Garcia is a book called....Magic with cards, does anyone know if that's any good? I appreciate it probably won't be as good as some of his other books, but is it worth adding to my library or not?

The only other place I can think I might find million dollar card secrets is at a car boot sale, you see some amazingly rare stuff going for reasonable rates. As the saying goes..........one man's trash is another man's treasure, and all that.
