Not Sure What To Do

[notsoltd]

I am going to buy Sankey's Hardcore DVD. I have his effect Pandora's Box, but lost the gimmicks. I emailed Sankey and was told that the next time I buy 2 or 3 DVD's, they'll send me some gimmicks for free.

I figured that since I was buying Hardcore, I'd order from them, buy one more thing (total of $50) and get the gimmicks for Pandora's Box.

Then I started looking...They have a deal...spend $75, and get a free DVD of your choice.

So I was thinking of getting Hardcore, and Three Ring Circus, and getting Smashed for free plus the Pandora's Box gimmicks for free.

This is where I started thinking....

I am spending $75 (alot for me, especially for magic). Is there anything else that would better benefit me (not just off sankey's sight but ANYTHING) for that price or cheaper?

I for sure want Hardcore! I am a close up guy and like to do things with ordinary objects (cards are getting old lol) and I am not a beginner, but not a pro lol. I also want something that will get my creative juices flowing!

Thanks,
Rob

I haven't seen Hardcore! yet but Sankey is a creator whose style I like, although some of his things I think are a bit move gnacky, and appear to work best when handled by him alone. I liked his 22 Blows to the Head, and I think he's got a coin DVD too if I'm remembering correctly that I thought was pretty cool. I think he's also got a complete tell all of Restaurant magic DVD out too, but don't hold me to that. Jay's got some good stuff overall I don't think you are going to be disappointed with anything you end up getting from him. If your ordering direct from him, email him and see if he'll include a signed Ace of Spades with your order. Bonus -Autograph!

Jay is a really nice man. I ordered Front Row Sankey from him a long time ago, and I special requested it and he signed the DVD case AND a photo of him.

I was kind of looking at getting hardcore, and then getting AoA vol. 1. I used to have the whole set...learned some stuff...overlooked most of it like an idiot and then sold it all.... *looks for something to beat head against* lol

I just want something to get the creative juices flowing while giving me some cool effects ya know?

Still not sure what to do

. Tell them what you are looking for. Have an idea of how and where you would like to interview your clients. Will the videographer go to them, or will they go to the studio? They should be able to give a pretty good idea about the total cost for exactly what you want.

I thought about just spending the $75 bucks and getting some Sankey stuff I like, and then once I sell all my RC stuff (should get about $400 - $500) I could just re-buy AoA then..

But I have no clue what I want off Sankey's site. There are some individual tricks that I want, but I also want something with more than that to kind of get me thinking, get creativity flowing, ya know?

Any help is greatly appreciated!

I ended up ordering Hardcore, Smashed, Dough, and got bigger finish for free! I figured I could routine Smashed, and dough together!

Borrow a bill, stab it, restore it, tell them how its easy with a bill, but with a quarter...thats a whole 'nother story....BAM!!!! pencil through quarter, and then use some fire to restore the hole!
