Magic Tricks

I got this as a free gift for ordering a certain amount of other items. I can see why this is a giveaway. There is no video performance. There is no video instructions, just a .pdf file you can download. Additionally, these cards are supposed to be marked but according to the .pdf instructions, there was an error in printing. You have to make the marks yourself. The instructions say it can be easily done with a Sharpie, but the tip of the sharpie is almost too thick to make the mark they suggest in the small area available. If you get this, you’d better use one of the super fine tip Sharpies and not a regular fine tip one. I’m not saying it can’t be done. It just takes a much keener eye and a much steadier hand with the Sharpie than I’ve got.
I think this is a giveaway because of the fact that you have to make the marks yourself and it’s not that strong a trick. I gave it 2 stars because it may appeal to some mentalists to use a jokes and punchlines matchup routine to freshen up their old ESP routine. But this just isn’t going to work for me. I’m glad I didn’t spend any money for it. I don’t believe it’s worth what the current price is. Maybe if they bring it down to $5 or something or just keep it as a giveaway. Otherwise, it’s just not worth it. …Even though I got it for free, I’d rather just stick to routines with my ESP cards. The joke is on us. They figured they’d try to sell a few and give most away to avoid feeling guilty about throwing out marked cards that arrived without the marks.
