I love the look and feel of this, but in every performance, people could tell what and how. I know
this because they would tell me after the show. No real way around it. It is easy to figure out,
even for those who have never been in magic.

If you take the time and effort to rehearse it well, you have a great piece of magic. It is not
difficult and you get a fine quality silk and silver-colored cord.
The silk is made from a high quality fabric that adds a bit of flair. The gimmick is a silk with a
clever way to do vanish, transportation, and other switches. Great product!
Just received my "Arrival" (box was in excellent condition, BTW) and I am totally pleased. I had the
opportunity to view the tutorial before shipment arrived so you can take this straight out of the
box and start using it. The video was clear and concise and you are learning from a true
professional. The price point is justified - you get an amazing item plus a tutorial. Everything is
as described. Another great product from David Regal....I highly recommend.
The silk is beautiful and very well made. The instructional video is well done, one of the best I’ve
ever seen. You get the feeling of sitting down with a mentoring magician that wants to help make you
successful too. Is it a little pricey, it depends on if you are only looking at the prop or if you
take in the training as well. After viewing the video I can say it is very responsibly priced in my
opinion.
As are all of Regal’s creations, it’s a well constructed, highly thought out gimmick. This is a
showpiece! David never fails to deliver the goods.
First and foremost, Arrival is marketed heavily as a beautiful and elegant prop. It truly does
deliver in that regard. The instructional video is 30 mins long. I do believe that is an
appropriate amount for the gimmick however I wish he explored some uses outside of cards. I will do
this on my own however I would have loved to hear some of his ideas on how to deal with heavier
items. For that reason and the fact that I do believe it is just slightly over priced I knocked off
one star.

My Arrival arrived today is a cardboard shipping box, as expected.
Upon opening, the
decorated box was inside, and inside that were the silk and the tie. No, not presented like in the
video, just thrown in.
I believe the silk will serve me well. But at this price point, i
expected way more from the presentation box. The box is thin and cheap, i can see white edges of
the paper folds.
The the box top was compressed and concave enough to notice. Essentially,
it is discardable.
I was expecting a much stiffer box without the cheap edges.
There is a business vard sized paper inside with a link for instructions. It is paper, not
business card stock
So, the conte ts seem fine, i hope they do not wear quickly.
The video is great!
