Gaff Decks

[Legendary]

I want to get one of the E Gaff decks, but don't think that I will find myself using it. If you own one; Do you use it ofter? Also, are the cards believable. It just seems so out of the ordinary that no one will believe it as real.

to be honest, most gaff decks aren't worth the price you pay for them. I got some decent use out of the Ultragaff deck, but your paying 30 bucks at least for it. The only "gaff" decks i use regularly are blank face, and John Kennedy's Mind Power deck. Both have so much potential they are worth twice what i payed.

For me, I use them alot, they are great for walk around situations in my opinion. I wouldn't recommend using them for routines unless you are comfortable palming cards away and getting burned by spectators wanting to see the deck afterward. I use them if I am approaching a few people sitting around. Perform the routine and then I can walk away without them really burning me too much. I do agree with the above statement, if you want to get Gaffs I would go with the Ultra's, because the DVD's you can get with them provide more variation for all the cards you have. With the normal gaffs what I find is that maybe only 6 tricks (I think) are covered with the cards, so you are left with some experimenting and innovation with the original gaffs.

One thing also about the gaffs, is they are no Dresscode, they aren't headlinging tricks, they are used more to fill in for tricks if you do a routine with them, and some of them are more to get a laugh from your audience than to actually blow their minds. Hope that helps Cheers!
