Aha @ Van...
I have a lot of expensive tricks, but, unfortunately, I do not have this one.
Generally, the expertise level here is beginner/intermediate for most.
So, leveraging off of that comment, the purchase of a $250.00 trick from anyone here would be rare even tho it seems easy to perform. That price tag will limit market share to this group.
I have two suggestions and one recommendation.
As a suggestion, intially, check w/the Magic Cafe forum...the experience level of the magi there is a bit higher than here generally.
Search the site, and review everything about this trick. There should be a few threads posted.
Secondly, I would contact PM directly by email, explain your situation (are you a good customer here?), ask for their input (they'll do their best to help...), and ask for a contact email for Angelo Carbone.
You may get a solution. You'll certainly get contact info so you can get Angelo's help.
Thus, you should be good to go with a little legwork.
Good luck ;-)
Oh, my recommendation...respectfully, find a new 'brick and mortar' shop. Just a thought...
One more "Oh"...what level of success did you have reverse engineering the gimmick?
