Magic Tricks

I recently received this in one of penguins promotions and I have to tell you that I love penguin magic very much! No other magic site that I have found has been so great! however.... I already own the spider reel by yigal mesika and was happy to receive this because it uses no batteries but when I first tried it out I was very disappointed! the thread in the reel reminded me of horse hair because it was very thick and visible... however it is nowhere as strong! The description says that it should go about 18 ft but mine went about 4 ft before one of the rubber bands broke! I think penguin magic should be ashamed of this and if it were me I would not want my name to be in the title! I just cannot believe it! I am one of the biggest supporters of penguin magic and think they have great prices, products, shipping, and quality so don't know what they were thinking when they made this!
