I have a nice set or two of cups.. but right now, I'm having a blast with some sake/tea cups I picked up at the second hand store for .25 each. My current favorite wand is a cut-down drum stick wrapped with black electrician's tape and the ends left exposed. Spins nice, the sake cups look exotic. Ok, so there are limited stacking moves, but with a PK ring I'm good on the chop cup moves, still plenty of magic to be had!

If you are looking to spend a few dollars IMHO Andy Comic's cups are the best deal in the universe on a set of cups. They also come with a fantastic routine and all the props needed to perform a complete cups and balls routine. You can start practicing right away.
I was actually going to mention these cups earlier but they were no longer on the site where I bought them. I didn't know you moved Andy! These really are fantastic cups for very short money.

I have to agree with the assessment of Andy Comic's cups. It's a great starter set. You could earn a living with them.

I just got a message from Michael Lee. He explained why he had not gotten in touch with me, so I will wait until he has more cups for sale.
Please understand this. His cups are very good cups.

Not to mention the fact that Andy is a heck of a nice guy as well. The things ship SUPER fast!

Wow,Frank your buying another set off me...so the rumours of your famous 6 cups routine are true then.
Yeh I have moved all my products BUT you better buy soon as the price will be increasing soon due to the fact that I am wholesaling them now as well and hence need to give them a better margin. Andy |

My cups arrived. Andy's cups arrive faster than almost all of my US magic purchases I'm not kidding.

Cups and balls are a fan favorite when I perform them. No matter how they look or sound with the tap of the wand. I would prefer a nice ring in the tone like the copper ones, but I have just the cheap tins for the time being. I have two sets. One was given to me.
When I busk, I do three tricks and my conclusion is cups and balls. With a light crowd, I tend to attract more because of the novelty of the effect and have as a result, gotten better pay. So my opinion on this is not so much the asthetic look, but the overall performance of the magician is what is important. I will eventually upgrade because I want cups that have a wider mouth and the tins limit my loads. |

There is a balance that needs to be found between load sizes, cup sizes and hand sizes. If you have small hands, it is very difficult to handle large cups and/or large loads. There are some workarounds on the loads, but after a certain size, things like the tip-off become problematic.

OMG!!!! that was fast. ordered a set of Andy's cups Tuesday early a.m. they got hear Saturday!! I normally don't like ordering things without having seen them first but this was worth it.
the cups are nice looking, and the video is not bad. I told Squishie Squishy that I was getting a bigger set of cups, but when she saw them she said "my god there spittoons!" needless to sat they are bigger than she expected . Thanks Andy for a great set of cups.
