Hi Carl,

Thanks for the offer, unfortunately I already gave away my quota of review copies.

Cheers,
V.

V Marra

Hi Joe, I appreciate the honest review, and overall I think your review was quite positive, so I am happy with it!

V Marra

Thank you for taking the time to give such a detailed review. Indeed, my collaborators and I were focused on a more hands-off and modern approach with many of these routines. I enjoy these types of effects because they can be done in very impromptu situations with little to no preparation or props, ...

V Marra

Sounds good, thank you!

V Marra

Hi Joe, thanks! I sent you a PM.

V Marra

All, I'm looking for reviewers of a new eBook that I am putting out called "Mental Blueprints." I am really excited about releasing this book, and my collaborators and I did a lot of research to ensure that we are putting forward quality, original, ideas in this book, and really making a v...

V Marra

lol... thought I'd just use this thread rather than starting a new one!

V Marra

Hi Harry, I see you are now registered, thanks for joining (sorry for the delayed thanks!) Just wanted to let everyone know as well that we are giving away Jamie D. Grant's "Industrial Revelation" this month, plus "The Vault." Head on over here for details on how to enter to win:...

I am very happy to say that Berglas arrived today in Vancouver, BC, Canada - hooray for the Posties being back at work!

Just received it now, so only flipped through it so far, but it really looks amazing.

"With the holiday on May 29th the packages mostly left on June 1st."

The holiday was actually on May 30th... but apparently they decided to take May 31st off as well for good measure.

V Marra

Thanks Richard...I think their cheapest international option would have been International Priority, unless they tried to stuff the book in an envelope and send it as a letter... you never know though! I'm curious and hope they did the right thing. In any case, it could get held up for weeks at the ...

V Marra

I have just today learned, much to my dismay, that the printer did not ship the books by Priority Mail as I both instructed and paid for. The dumb bells shipped the books by Bound Printed Matter, which is why it's taking everyone so long to receive them. I apologize for this, even though it's not m...

V Marra

Okay, everyone's books have been SHIPPED (except the deluxe editions). Please post a note here when David Berglas arrives at your home so I can breathe a sigh of relief!!!! David Berglas is coming to my home to deliver it? Yay! I will let you know when he arrives for sure! ;-) Thanks for the update...

V Marra

Thank you for the continuous updates on the status of this set. What is the new expected shipping date given the colour plates issue?
Thanks!

V Marra

Wow, the DVDs sound great! This is an amazing piece of work. Thanks so much for compiling it all!

V Marra

I agree, Craig is great to deal with, I have purchased from him before and he is very reputable.

V Marra

Congrats Jamie! They look marvelous!

V Marra

Hey all, There is a thread about this on "Link Watch" as well, but I thought it is relevant to this forum category too... On The Magic Network you are welcome to set up a free profile, including your profile photo, links to your sites, and basic information about yourself. You can add your...

V Marra

Hi, Sorry, this is a bit late, but I was in Beijing recently and was also trying to find a magic shop there. I found the name of one on the Internet, figured out where it was, and got a taxi driver to take me there.... I believe it was supposed to be in a place called "Long Foo Plaza" if I...

Jeff... I have bottle #10... pretty close... I wouldn't sell it though... it was too much work to find it! (that, and it is truly amazing!) I remember bottle 14... seeing the picture of the bottle on the coffee shop table and wondering which coffee shop it was! Ahh, the great memories of the Send Wo...

V Marra

Just wanted to update that since this thread started, we've added some new features to The Magic Network, including a product reviews section which has about 1000 reviews so far. We also added a magician's link directory, which everyone is free to add their links to. Its definitely worth stopping by...

V Marra

Thanks Richard, very fair! Cheers, V.

V Marra

Richard, will only Genii subscribers be allowed to pre-order at that time? Thanks.

V Marra

Hey Tom,
I left you a comment on your blog post with my suggestions. Great tool by the way!
Best,
V.

V Marra

The show is really great. The Gemini Awards are this weekend, I'll be keeping my fingers crossed for Haim - it would be great to see a mentalist win a Gemini.

V Marra

No worries, Dick, and sorry if I took it the wrong way. Thanks for the tip, that is a fantastic idea. I'll have to see if I can do something similar with Canadian money :-) should be possible though. Ever get any funny looks from the bank teller when you request sequentially numbered bills? Cheers, ...

V Marra

the U.S. Mints (there is more than one) make coins, bills are printed at the Bureau of Engraving and Printing in Washington, DC. I figured as much, but didn't have time to verify it and it is a lot easier to type Mint. Didn't think anyone on a Magic and Mentalism forum would really care or call me ...

V Marra

Just a question... and don't answer if it gives something away... but how are the dollars custom made and real at the same time? Unless the U.S. Mint custom made them for Max? Just wondering because this sounds intriguing. Thanks, cheers, V. ---- <a class="postlink" href="http://themagicne...

V Marra

That is great Haim, congratulations. If the Gemini's recognize your Mentalism as "Reality" then that is a great thing, and it will go a long way toward helping all of us Canadian Mentalists! Cheers, V. <a class="postlink" href="http://themagicnetwork.com">http://themagicnetwork.c...

V Marra

If anyone else has questions or comments about the site, let me know. A lot of new members have joined in the past couple of days.

V Marra

Good to see that the contest at The Magic Network has helped some people to discover the Genii forum as well!

V Marra

@Richard, thanks for your openness - I have a similar attitude at The Magic Network... even if a member just joins to upload their videos, or photos, or put a link to their site, that is fine. Of course, the more participation the better, but we all know everyone is busy. @Larry, it is hard to see t...

V Marra

Hey Joe, thanks for clarifying, I see what you mean and you make a valid point, I agree with full disclosure here. I would have mentioned it when I started the thread, but the contest started after I started this thread here.
Hey Tom, appreciate your comments and having you as a member.

V Marra

There's nothing wrong with having contests and rewarding members for taking part in the site and helping to promote it. These guys are great members and genuinely love the site and take part in it every day. I hope more people come on over and take a look, regardless of whether or not they want to w...

V Marra

A new site for magicians and mentalists launched recently, called The Magic Network . It is a great place to meet magicians, promote your magic, and share your magic with the community. You can set up a profile page with your videos, photos, links, blog, and instant downloads. You can post products ...

V Marra

I like your blog, you give a lot of useful posts and great reviews!
