After reading this thread, I am sad for the state of magic. There are some real clueless idiots here.

How is it well worth it? You just explained one of the greatest sleights in card magic... just to make a dollar? You're a disgrace to all magicians.

Mer, I'm never gonna do it again after reading this thread. But he was real terrible at it.

Also how is this different from selling tricks like penguin does?

The reasons why that's different could fill books, and probably already do.

You can browse these pages and find some reasons why magic shops are different than you selling an effect to a friend for a buck.

Why should we give him a break? He deserved worse.

And why chime in after so long, and addressing your comment to one specific person? When many others said the same thing, if not worse... :roll:

i was given one dollar to do the tell how to do the floating dollar bill so i showed them how then one kid payd me 5 bucks for a little straind of IT and i thought :shock:

wow is he really that stupid to but a strand for five bucks when he can buy a package of it for 3 bucks so i did it and now he does the trick and someone asks how he does it he tells them it is one of the biggest mistakes in magic i have ever done and i hope my greed doesnt get the better of me next time :cry:

First off in almost every magic book it says a magician nvr reveals thier secrets and plus we as magicians pay money for those trick and to have them exposed waste our money and the effect is known so its not a suprise I sugest you read adjones topic about exposure under the essays forum.
