The Conversation Parlor / Wayne Houchin burnt
« on: November 28, 2012, 11:55:41 PM »
Wayne Houchin, creator of Distortion, sinful, thread, stigmata and many awesome effects has recently been burnt by the host while soon a show in the Dominican Republic.

Here's the article

http://itricks.com/news/2012/11/discovery-channel-magician-wayne-houchin-burned-during-dominican-republic-television-appearance/

Why would the host do that? I simply don't understand. Although I do not know Wayne personally, his magic has influenced me. I pray for his speedy recovery and hope his burnt right hand doesn't hinder his magical abilitites and hinder him from creating more awesome effects.

Playing Card Plethora / Gold infinity deck by Ellusionist
« on: November 15, 2012, 09:24:53 PM »
I remember sometime back Jason Brumbalow was selling a gold infinity uncut.

Here's the link:
http://aethercards.com/discourse/sales-trades-isos/jason-brumbalow-private-collection-for-sale/msg53530/?topicseen#msg53530

But there isn't any news officially from E about this deck? Why aren't they selling them or giving them away as prizes? Maybe those were prototypes of the infinity decks? Or maybe they are waiting for the gold arcanes to be depleted be fore releasing them.

I was also wondering if the buying was from over here and would be kind enough to show us some pictures.

Magical Cardistry Bonanza / Zenneth Kok's Entwined Hearts
« on: October 31, 2012, 11:28:59 AM »
Here is a link to Zenneth's performance.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VCKMm-XYmwM

No offence to Zenneth, but this trick looks very similar to Wayne Houchin's Distortion and I am sure the handling can be improved on such as getting rid of the double backer altogether which gets rid of the 'TL' in the end. I am sure it doesn't matter to your regular layperson but I reckon that would be a cleaner ending. And also the routine that is slightly long.

P.S If Zenneth is reading this, do you happen to have a performance clip of Lu Chen doing this effect as it says on the coterie site that the T.V performance right is sold to him in 2012. Thanks.

Magical Cardistry Bonanza / Dan and Dave S.E.A Tour
« on: October 29, 2012, 03:47:51 AM »
All those that went to the lecture, come here and share your thoughts and experience. I for one had an awesome time. Although most stuff had been though on their DVDs, Ricky Smith was super funny and seeing them in the flesh was well worth it. Having them pinpoint my mistakes for some of the moves was also a great experience. Anyone with any pictures or videos of the lectures should also post them here to share :).

Playing Card Plethora / What purchase(s) was most worth it?
« on: October 29, 2012, 12:38:32 AM »
Since there is a thread discussing the most regretful purchases, I, being a happy person, though of starting a thread to share the most happy purchase. One of the more recent worth it purchases of mine was the white monarchs that I got off t11. I bought 3 of them and sold 2 to make enough money to buy myself a smoke and mirrors v1 that I have been wanting to get for a long long time. And also, I did not regret spending money to attend the DnD lecture in Singapore as I made many new friends the lecture was awesome. Dan, Dave and Ricky were also super nice and friendly people willing to impart knowledge and share ideas, not forgetting that they also adhere to almost all request to sign stuff and take photographs.

Hi guys. This is a sale for a set of bee split spades one black and one inverted black(one of it is signed thus no cello on the black seal one). It is going for SGD70. I am from Singapore and currently would prefer to sell to people in Singapore only. Interested parties can contact PM me directly or email me at and1ben_7 [at] hotmail (dot) com. I would only do COD at any MRT station along the green line.

This was posted by dnd on their instagram.

Cool deck of #playingcards we recently produced for Robert Graham Clothing

40
From the other reviews I have seen about the normal monarchs, the barcode on the bottom is upside down, but the one I have is right side up. Any one of you have this printed on you regular monarch? Btw i got mine in the dnd variety box v6.

41
Hi guys. This is a sale/trade of a variety pack of 6 decks of playing cards including the elusive and rare White Monarchs deck. Here's what the variety pack would include:

White Monarch-$75
Magic Con 2012-$35
Smoke and Mirror V6-$20
DB White lions Series "A" Blue- $20
Fantastiques-$15
*Ellusionist black tiger white pip (air-cushion with no barcode reveal)-$20

All prices are a rough estimate of market value in Singapore dollars. Total cost is $185. However, This variety pack would go for only $170. The price is negotiable and I would also accept trades of similar value. I am from Singapore and currently would prefer to sell to people in Singapore only. Interested parties can contact PM me directly or email me at and1ben_7 [at] hotmail (dot) com. These six decks will come packed nicely in a brick box(normal white one or v6 or red vintage plaid) at no extra cost (if you do not want the brick box it is fine as well). I would only do COD at any MRT station along the green line.

*For more info on the above black tiger deck you can refer to ---> http://aethercards.com/discourse/index.php?topic=1157.msg17757#msg17757 you will get the exact deck pictured in the first post.

These decks have all been sold out at their respective sites and are collectables. Get them while they last.

EDIT: the price of the white monarch and total price has been edited.

42
For those of you who have always wanted to own one of these but do not want to to spend $175 at E, here is your chance. The price is also very good. The site also has other rare decks like steamboats and other magic items. So here it is:

Playing Card Plethora / Bicycle Be@rbrick
« on: April 25, 2012, 06:58:25 AM »
There are some decks that I use to perform and some just to open and admire, although these decks are taken out to handle for about 5 to 10 mins every few weeks. However, I have not taken my bearbricks out for about 4 months. It has been lying in its box since then. When I attempted to take them out today, it was close to impossible. Previously i only played wih them about 3 to 4 times for about 10 mins. The deck clumped together so bad that I couldn't even pull it out of its box. When they were out, I couldn't fan dribble properly as they are still clumped. After a while they felt slightly better but still not as good. I remember taking them out for the first time and they felt slightly smoother than your typical bicycle deck. They are now in my dry cabinet under some weight, hopefully the condition will improve.

Anyone here owns the bicycle bearbrick deck and have any similar experience? Does anyone also know the stock and finish of the deck?

Still very sad as it was a gift from my girlfriend :(

46
Anyone here managed to get any of the above mentioned deck and have opened them? Unfortunately my cash flow does not allow me to get these collectibles. So I was wondering if I/we(as a community) could see some of them as I have been scouring the internet for pictures of them but to no avail. :) thanks in advance.
