Having your website Not Secure up until recently used to be allowed by Google. Websites that take payments online or transmit any sensitive data even a contact form should always have secure pages.

Hello Richard, thank you so much for the info, I actually don't know Andy but it would be great to be able to contact him and have a chat. Seeing that my business is almost 100% online I have not had a chance to do much networking. Like I mentioned before, I moved from England to the US 6 years ago ...

I have no problems abiding by rules. I just wonder why when I post something I either get ignored with very little feedback from anyone or I get my hand slapped for something others do all the time. Maybe I am just not in the "in" crowd in this forum. Yes!... I have... I actually thought h...

I can't help but notice "WANTED OLRAM FILES" in CAPS... At least make sure it is something implemented across the board. I always feel like I am the only one slapped on the back of the hand here...

I totally agree Alfred. I grew up in London and used to go to Davenport's magic shop and another magic called Repro magic. I know that Davenport's closed and was supposed to find a new location. Everyone is so heavily reliant on social media and YouTube these say. Meeting and mixing with fellow magi...

Both Underworld and Fineprint are very hard to find. They are also pricy when they come up for auction. Wish you luck!

Christopher1979

More going on in AZ than I thought! Thank you!

Christopher1979

Thank you very much for the links Alfred, even more so for the second. I was not aware of Carnival of Illusion and they have some interesting info on their website!

Hello all, I have now lived in Phoenix Arizona for 6 years and although it is unbelievably hot for half of the year I have got to really like it and can now call it home. As I am new to the "magic scene" here in the U.S. I would like to know what magic events, communities, or shops are in ...

I think Wilson uses it in a few interesting effects in the tutorial DVD

Yeah! It has been on youtube for quite some time. Not often you see all those guys together!

You would have to buy originals of The Crimp magazine otherwise it would be illegal. They are hard to find, especially as a complete file.

Christopher1979

I feel blessed that I am able to work as a magic book dealer and I am also blessed that we have still been getting consignments and people have still been bidding. As was seen by Potter & Potter, even at an unprecedented time like this people are still bidding and bidding strongly.

I remember getting in contact with them about 3 years ago both through their website and email without any reply...

You would do better if you removed your reserve. Reserves are pointless on eBay and you get charged more as a seller too. It would be better if you just started the auction at the price you wanted.

Christopher1979

without exposing.... I'd say timing and placement changed everything. It's a technique that i've seen guys like ricky jay perform and it always stood out as "something that must be able to be performed better".. It's also taught in some of the Vernon books.. I'm a student of Vernon and lo...

Christopher1979

Quality is quality I agree, but that is different from having a preference. I am not arguing about good magic vs bad magic. Is a good dove act better than a bad illusion?. Is a great card trick better than a poor mentalist act?.

Christopher1979

I have figured that it does no good to be mean spirited over change and "evolution" at the heart of it that is essentially what we are talking about. I personally don't care for it but there are many that do! I have a love for old music from the 1910s to the 1950s most 40 year old guys wou...

The plagiarism is what got me too! I always knew that Erdnase was not a professional gambler but to have everything laid out on the table as Steve did really made me think about our view of The Expert at the Card Table. After reading some of Steve's thoughts, I experienced a real "a-ha moment&q...

This book has been a harsh and humbling experience so far. There were small details that I knew were a little off. A break showing when it shouldn't or the placing of slugs in my riffling stacking procedure breaking up the smooth flow of the riffle itself. Having Mr. Forte call them out in print fe...

Christopher1979

When will it be ok to start talking about Steve's book?... The Erdnase from Steve's perspective makes you rethink everything!

I find it funny that I can find "Fear Mr Bob" as your anagram
