Way over-priced since Shawn tells you that a completely blank book costs as much as the printed one
and the blank one can be purchased for $20. First half of video is all about himself and is totally
not needed. As in all his videos he speaks way to fast and one has to continually go back and watch
and listen several times. The effect is very good. It is very easy to do and one can figure it out
without the instructional video.
Sorry you think SheerLuck is over priced. Yes, I do offer an additional blank book and state it cost as much as the fully printed book. I think, what you fail to understand is that I don't profit much from the sale of the additional book. I offer it as a bonus item and not with the intention of making more funds off a customer who has already invested in the effect. Your assertion appears to be that if it cost me $40 to produce (two books), then selling it for double is "Way over-priced". Are you aware that I must wholesale the item to the dealers, which means I sell it for 40% of the retail? Yes that's correct, I sell if for less than half the retail price. I hope that clears it up for you.
Just to be clear for anyone reading this, "First half of video is all about himself and is totally not needed." is an inaccurate statement. The first half of the video is the history of the creation of the effect and giving credit to the people before me who made this effect possible. I am aware that there are a few people who don't care about learning any of the history and care even less about giving credit but I feel it is needed.
Oh and sorry I speak too fast for you, it's who I am and I can do nothing, nor would I want to change that for anyone.

Shawn, Good to see you care enough about this great routine to read the comments. I don’t understand why so many people think that magicians shouldn’t make a profit from their ideas. If you had not marketed this fantastic book test they wouldn’t have had the opportunity to buy this and perform it. Frankly I’m surprised that you did market it, but I’m glad you did and now I have the chance to purchase it and perform it. Thank you for sharing this with us.

Shawn. Could you please tell me what I will be sent from Penguin Magic when I purchase this. Thanks. It's very funny, well done
Hi Lefort, I apologize for not replying sooner but I didn't see your comment/question. SheerLuck will come with two books and a digital download that teaches the method and history of the effect. You will also get multiple live show videos to see it in use in different settings. If you register your investment you will later receive a free explanation of an alternate handling. Mitchmarkl, thanks for the kind words and understanding.
VERY nice to see a magician/creator take an interest in the comments about his creation. For that reason I just purchased it to use in my performances. So if you are interested I will give you my take on the other comments. Thank you Shawn.
