Steve Beam's Trapdoor

Postby prodigy » January 17th, 2017, 10:03 pm

I saw the following listing on ebay today: http://www.ebay.com/itm/The-Trap-Door-M ... Sw44BYfoUm

I'm curious whether this magazine was every offered by Steve Beam in digital format. If so, can anyone provide me with a link to purchase this officially?

Never officially released this way. There was a torrent of the scanned magazines going around at one time, and I suspect that this is what was being sold here.

It looks like several of the seller's other products are a bit hinky.

He is also selling a file of Genii on a USB stick, a while load of current mentalism books on a USB stick including Andy Nyman's Bulletproof,
and the Digital Gen on a USB stick.

Sounds very dodgy. Seller is based in Thunder Bay, Ontario.

I had my suspicions but thanks for the confirmation.

I believe Genii Vol 1-75 is available for purchase via USB from lybrary, but I think the seller has just taken another USB and copied it onto that. Digital Sphinx and Digital Gen I believe are available on DVD, but not on USB. The mentalism and magic book USB is quite clearly dodgy.

A bit surprised considering the seller has got lots of positive feedback.

Sure the seller has lots of positive feedback! People love to buy something for a fifth of its price!
