Hello all i hope everyone is well.
I've been wanting to ask this question for a while as I've not really seen people talk about it (I've looked for posts but not found any)
I have slowly been learning card tricks and it is going well so far, the books i have brought have a lot of information and the advice from this community on which tricks to look for and what may work for me has helped a lot.
Like most beginners i have gone through ebay for the books, but i have noticed hundreds of tricks / gimmicks whether it's cards or the linking rings on there, now a lot of said tricks look very cheaply made and don't look like they would work, but i have personally focused on looking for card tricks as that is what i feel comfortable with at the moment.
I have actually brought a couple of said tricks and yes one in particular is made on cheap card, but the effect itself works and when I've performed it it has gone over extremely well.
The tricks i have brought are extremely easy to learn and easy to execute which for me is extremely useful whilst i feel I am still at beginner stages of magic.
I wanted to know what your thoughts and opinions are on this subject as I know not a lot of people are a fan of this sort of thing.
I can mention the tricks if it is useful for anyone but i wanted to know your thoughts and opinions about first.
