James,
I can comment on the shell set, which I assume is a silver set? That's probably a good purchase, not only for the shell, which is simply the best around, but also the four ordinary coins, which is all you'll need for a while.
I haven't seen the ETMMM series, however, so I can't say much there. I got started with books, but I know it would have saved quite a bit of time if I could have actually seen some of the things performed back then.
All I can say is take the time to learn the basics, since in Coinmagic there's not too much distance between the basics and the most advanced moves.
Learn a good coins across without the shell first, then use the shell routine only when necessary. This does not conserve any valuable resource, but you will learn quite a lot in learning when the shell is "necessary".
Is THAT a PALMS OF STEEL 5 Banner I see? YARRRRGH! Please visit The Magic Bakery
