Is it just me or are there lots of recent posts where people are asking 'should I buy it'?

Only you can answer this question!

Surely a better question would be:

I'm looking to learn X, Y and Z and become a better card flourisher / magician etc. If I buy it, will this product help me or how will this product help me.

This gives the opporunity for far greater feedback that will help you make an informed choice (hopefully).

so Duh.......

and I wasn't referring just to your post, there have been a number from other people recently asking what appears to be the same question - and posting less than you have.....

Ellusionist now accepts paypal. That's how I bought XB.

I don't particularly like Ellusionist but it was the only place stocking XB. I think magicshop is going to stock XB sooner or later.

well not really

Paypal

Even though Ellusionist® has temporarily disabled the Paypal service, there is a method that utilizes the funds in your PayPal balance to purchase products at Ellusionist, rather than calling in the order. Here's how:

1. Log in to PayPal.
2. In the "My Account" tab, click the "Withdraw" tab.
3. Click "Shop online with a PayPal virtual card".
4. Enter "http://www.ellusionist.com/store" in the right-hand text box (under "ENTER ANY STORE URL") and click "Go". You will need to disable any pop-up blockers for the next screen opens in a pop-up window.
5. Shop!
6. Enter the checkout and review your cart, select shipping, add comments,
whatever.
7. Then, for a payment, you will be using a "virtual debit card". This is the same entry box as the credit card. Go to the credit card input information section and use the information at the pop-up at the bottom to fill in the required information. Be sure you have enough funds in your PayPal account to do this!
8. Then checkout, and the "virtual debit card" will act as a debit card, paying ellusionist® with funds in your PayPal account.

from the ellusionist website

you cant use the virtual debit card unless you upgrade your account, conncent a bank account and a credit card
now whats the point of using the virtual debit card if you already HAVE a credit card

They accepted paypal when I used it. They must've disabled it now.

k88, please use the search button, your question has come up before.

It's considered good etiquette to search before asking. This saves your time and others time in replying with the same answer. If you search and don't find an answer THEN post, preferably to an existing thread on the topic.

OK, just this once (as it's nearly Xmas :wink:

) I'll answer your question anyway.

1) XB is the best beginner flourish product. Period. If you want to learn flourishes and are starting out you should definately get it.

2) Ellusionist are trustworthy to order stuff from.

3) Using their standard airmail delivery it will take from 5-7 working days to get to the UK. You MAY pay customs charges, this may amount to 5-7 quid, it is totally random if you'll get charged or not.
