Welcome to the forum.
I started my road to magic with Born to Perform DVD
http://www.penguinmagic.com/product.php?ID=618 and Royal Road to Card Magic book (recently purchased DVD from NUMS)
http://www.nothingupmysleeve.co.uk/mark ... cts_id=110. Both I think are excellent for card magic. I then got a sponge ball DVD and a coin magic DVD.
I had so much magic at this point that I don't think I got much more for some time (except maybe a stripper / svengali deck)
About 18 months ago I started to build up a collection of things that could be classed as "bigger and better" effects (Raven, hip hop rabbits, PK ring...) But I have to say the basics I learnt from my first DVDs are still some of my most powerful and fav trick.
Hope this helps, I read your post in the other section but thought it would be easier just to write one reply
Best of luck
Alex
Magic is real, just look around you, some of the most amazing things have no reason, no explanation but are very real.
