Sharpies are everywhere today. Offices, schools, bars, restaurants, checkout counters, Starbucks and most homes. At any moment, you borrow a Sharpie (or use your own) and with otherwise totally empty hands, right in front of your spectator's eyes, you break off the clip and instantly restore it! With no switches or any funny business, you immediately hand it back out. You're clean and the spectator can walk away with their own marker, which is now an impossible object! And if you use a Sharpie for your own magic, Sharpie Quickie is the perfect follow up effect. There's nothing else to carry. As long as you've got your Sharpie, you're always ready to go. Comes with precision-crafted gimmick and a link to a video explanation where Brian takes you through four of his favorite handlings.

Overpriced garbage Report this review

This is not a good price at all for what you get. The instruction is awful. For this price you can buy way better stuff. Do not buy this.

Genius!!! Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on August 25th, 2017
The Platt father/son duo have been on my radar since Sugar Rush which continues to get some of my best reactions on a regular basis. Well 'Sharpie Quickie' is another home run! After watching the trailer I was almost certain I knew of the method but to my surprise was I so wrong,... but wrong in such a good way. Listen to these words carefully: you go & borrow the specatator's Sharpie, then snap the clip off the exact cap of THEIR Sharpie & can choose to restore & do it again or just simply hand it back. Without giving away too much I'll just say that you don't need to perform a switch. The gimmick is genius & not only provides the spectator with a strong visual but also a strong audible illusion as well. Brian walks you through 26 mins of instruction on how to break & restore the clip to the cap (4 different variations on restoration). I couldn't be happier with this product & I've had so much fun performing this, even practicing in the mirror with certain variations over & over makes me smile. This is so practical, so much fun & the gimmick takes up almost no space in your pocket. I've snap & restored with the gimmick going on nearly a few hundred times & it's still feels & sounds great! I rarely write reviews & normally am lurking about but this is so good that I hope you'll support the Platt family so they can continue to give us great magic we can all use & appreciate. My highest recommendation possible!!!

I Love This Trick Report this review

I love this trick because I can borrow someone's Sharpie, break it, fix it, and give it back to them. This is definitely a favorite of mine.

Clever idea, decent execution Report this review
Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on September 18th, 2020
This is a clever little idea for a nice little magic moment that ends with you clean and the sharpie in your participant's hands. I use it as the lead-in to my version of Alex Pandrea's wonderful TR.AP trick.

Nothing packs smaller than this, and it plays exactly as big as it needs to. One problem: The actual finish of the gimmick could emulate a sharpie clip better. It has the wrong texture, and the shape is pretty dissimilar to the genuine article. I don't feel comfortable performing it up close and slowly in broad daylight. You kind of have to speed through the trick, which detracts from the impact.

$23 is pretty steep for what you get, but I'm happy to have this in my set.

Right up there with Platt Magic's Sugar Rush, which for me is a real worker. Made my wife smile. Quick is right, but strong magic.

Powerful little piece of magic Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on September 6th, 2017
Love this. Performed this in the middle of a magic set as well as a stand alone effect. Both got great reactions. I borrowed a sharpie from spectators at local coffee shop and at work....fried them. Borrow the sharpie whenever possible for best reactions.Takes some practice to get down.Angles are decent. Well made. A must for any magician as its so unexpected. Have fun.

One of my years Favorites Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on October 10th, 2017
Easy to do, perfectly working. The only qualm I could possibly have is that it needs be executed by me.

And here I go. I will have this issue for now and ever, deciding how to end. But don't let that deter you. After all you DON'T need us telling you what to do :-)...
