Probably legitimate and the only surprise to me is that they are so expensive! We deserve it.

I predicted this as soon as I heard FISM was going to China.

Look at the smoking thumb - they even use Finns picture. (Sorry I may be jumping the gun there. Finn can you confirm?). Floating table - $129 (economy version of course). ROFL ROFL

I think a year before I gave a heads up to Bob K regarding his furniture being ripped off in China, luckily he managed to fix it ok.

Those with the passion should keep it and use it for themselves, I've had enough! I'm with Jim Riser on this one.

This place knocked off my trick.
Out of extreme curiousity I purchased one from this same guy on ebay. I feel sorry for anyone who buys this dreck. It doesn't even work.
Because my effect is patented I was able to have eBay make him remove all the other ones he had listed. There were 6 in a row. I added my negative feedback along with the other negative feedbacks he had. I have not seen it listed on ebay since.
I really feel sorry for that person in China who may be in a cold dank cell putting together Cigarette Up The Nose's all day and night. I know how he feels.
