Has anyone had any success trying to contact Mr Strivings recently? I've been trying for over 2 months to contact him via email without any replies.

I read some older posts stating that he was difficult to get hold of, however, more recent ones suggested that things have changed.

Perhaps I have an out of date email address? I have been sending emails to: MarkyApril@aol.com

Hope someone can help!

Iain.

I believe from what I've read that Mark is a 'lost cause' these days i.e. I wouldn't put much store in being able to order anything from him. Which is a shame.

If you were after the Sight Unseen Case, the only ray of hope is the Stealth Assassin wallet (at about twice the price) which features this peek along with it's other built in utilities.

Ian Rowland, on his website, recommends contacting James Cheung who makes leather goods for mentalists, to commission something similar to the SUC.

Cardiac - that's what I've inferred from various posts. Anyone know whether Mark is still even performing?

I feel lucky to have an SUC!

If there are still people desperately looking for a brand new SUC, I refer to this posting:

Had an email from Mark about a week ago.
So he's alive and kicking ...

Mark resurfaced very conspicuously at Mindvention. He had a dealer table at which he energetically demo'ed his effects, participated as a panel member on a discussion forum, and spent a lot of time working camera and sound systems for lectures. So he is available.

He also sold that last of those burgundy SUC which he had been holding onto.

... and Mark helped with the new SUC book recently.

New SUC book? Any URL info...? I'd love to get a copy...

I believe the info for the book was posted by the author a couple of days ago but the thread seems to have been yanked. Something to do with unpaid advertising ? I can't remember the name of the poster unfortunately. The price was only about $5/£3.

I spoke to Mark at the Mindvention and he was cool as $#@! He had some great products and a huge cataloge.

I wish he'd get his marketing together. You'd think he would hand over the selling to a third party for a cut. He'd get rid of all the selling headaches and we'd get some nice Mk III SUC's and other goodies

Shucks... I wished he would at least have a webpage to see stuff!

Oh well...

Hopefully it will be Sight Seen soon.

I have had some good experiences with Mark in the past four to six weeks. His "Mnemerica" is really excellent!

I also had a good experience with Mark in the last two months - very communicative. This also involved the purchase of "Mnemerica". A terrrific product.

I wonder why he has not been answering my emails then?

This all seems rather strange.

Can anyone describe the effact of "Mnemerica"?

Iain.

Dr.Spector.... here is the SUC link you asked for :

1000+1 thanks, Piers!

Iain, "Mnemerica" is a creative evolution of Bob Mason's "Predicta-Total" from 1975. This greatly improved routine features seven different numerical predictions, and a much cleaner methodology. Mark and co-creator, Dexter, have really created a winner! Unfortunately, I believe there have only been two limited runs of twelve units each; the product is probably unavailable at this time.

Have you tried his phone number? It's on his catalog......
