Dave Regal's "Self Evident" has been one of my favorite go-to effects for many years. This duo of
tricks is based upon a similar method/concept, but the feel of the Simpatico tricks is different
enough to be definitely worth the investment. The subtleties employed really sell the tricks. With a
lot of magic the details make the masterpiece, so I'm glad that Regal took the time to explain the
details that make Simpatico work so well. He is a great communicator/teacher.
I also like
the idea that I was able to see the explanation via digital download before actually getting the
"gimmick" sent in the mail. Like most magicians who have been doing this for a while, I've got the
necessary things at home to make up the Simpatico Plus decks myself while I wait for the gimmick to
arrive. I would have gladly paid the asking price just for the information, so having the cards sent
is something I see as a bonus.
My only gripe is the shipping charge of $5.95 for standard
(non-priority) shipping. Taking advantage of a periodic free shipping offer would have been smart,
but I was anxious to start learning the routines.
