Has anyone used the Petrick & Mias Miser's Dream Pail? Were you pleased with it over a no dropper (empty bucket) method? Or is there a dropper method pail by a particular manufacturer that you like better?

Petric and Mia actually have two versions of the pail. The first is what you are decribing. The second is an attachment that is placed inside the pail and drops washers instead of coins inside the pail. I have both gimmicks.

Hi Ron,
Thanks for telling me that you have them. How do you like them? Does the pail work well? Which would you recommend? Any other info would be helpful before I purchase. Thanks! Lou |

Lou:
The pail works well with either gimmick. It is hard to say which one is better. I think if I had to choose I would choose the pail with the dropper rather than the other gimmick. My reasoning is that you have several "coins" dropping and rattling in the bucket. I am not sure what the price difference is. Ron |

I own the same pail with both gimmicks and it always gets a great reaction. I really like the "other" gimmick which is the one that does not use washers. Petric describes in his instructions some clever methods utilizing this unique gimmick. The ability to ditch and steal is so easly accomplished using his method and gimmick. That is all I will say about that but if you get the oppertunity, BUY IT and have Petric install BOTH GIMMICKS. Consider investing a little more and get Petrics coins as they will help you greatly with routining. The only possible down side to the coins is that they are made with a very think foil type of material and can wear after many performances but the can easely be replaced as they arn't costly. His coins can be seen from any size stage! A real nice combination. Wouldn't sell mine at any price.

Go to http://www.pmmagic.com. They have a gold pail there. Mine happens to be silver.

If you are interested in the dropper gimmick only and the PM coins to be used with you own wine bucket, I have the PM set that was sold before the items on their site. PM me if interested.
When I seen Petric perform this only a few feet away, he really fooled me. It was a great Misers Dream effect. I purchased his equipment at once. For a more traditional version of the Misers Dream, check out 'The Ultimate Coin Pail" at http://www.sterlinimagic.com |

I have emailed Petrfik & Mia several times with regards to their coin pail but I still have not received a response. I do not know if they are away on vacation. Does anyone know if there is another magic dealer that sells the gold miser dream pail with the extra gimmicks installed?
Thank you very much. Michael
