Or, maybe it is true for someone entering the market and trying to make a quick buck, knowing that they won't make any more after word of the current, deceptive one gets out and about. However for someone like Dean - or any of the other well-known and for the most part well trusted magic creators/marketers, this kind of marketing will seriously hurt your future business. Just look at Sankey. Sure, he still sells stuff and always will. But just reading posts about his marketing tactics over the last three or four years - not only here but all around the Net - shows that there are a lot of folks who adamantly refuse to bite at any more of his offerings. So, yes for someone who wants to make a one-time killing and then run, and no for a magic guy who has a good rep and wants to keep it.
