Mine came broken.
also Penguin mentioned a value of 15 usd on the parcel ( when it was
actually 4eur30 ) so i had to pay 11usd of custom taxes due to their mistake.
first time i get
disatisfied with penguin, hope they can correct this.
This product provides all that you need to perform the chop cup routine. I am very pleased with this
purchase. Although it is a plastic cup, I find that it is better suited to perform for children
because it doesn't look like a prop from a magic shop. Kids understand a plastic cup and they may
relate to this prop at a more comfortable level. It just looks like a fun trick. The cup is black. I
used magician's wax to hold the gimmick in place, as it was loose upon arrival (which may be
normal). The basic routine provided is easy to learn and very usable. Can't go wrong at this price.
It would make a great stocking stuffer for the young magician.
Great innocent looking cup . Wish it was red like the picture, black was the colour that I already
had well I have.
For this price, this is the best chop cup you can have. The look and feel is of course 'cheaper'
compared to those fancy metal cups but it functions the way a chop cup should. Size is a little
small than I imagined - you could load a golf ball at most.
Title is self-explanatory. Also, don't be thrown away by the colors in the advertise, the cup I got
was black and the balls were red, nice looking style.
One of the many things I don't understand is why someone would want to use a chop cup that calls
attention to itself. An then, to spend tons of money on it. Silver, brass, copper, wood,
collapsible, and (imho) the height of stupidity, a soft-sided collapsible cup. Now you have a prop
that has the real method hidden and presents another, perfectly workable one in plain sight. But, I
digress.
This cup doesn't look special, it looks like something you borrowed from your
kid. It fits in your pocket, just like the one costing 10x more, and it is just the right size to
accomidate a regulation-sized golf ball or really small pineapple as a final load.
And,
it doesn't hurt that it costs next to nothing.
I bought this from penguin because it is by far the lowest price anywhere. I use this chop cup in
all my walk around shows. It looks like an everyday toy cup. Looks like there's no magic in it, and
thats what makes it so good. Its is the perfect size for a golf ball production at the end.
