I would just like to see if I am the only person who was disappointed after purchasing this effect.
I bought it when it first came out after much hype, but the method is ridiculous in my opinion and they are nothing more than tops off a can of WD 40.
I am not criticizing the effect, I was hoping someone could tell me I was wrong and it is a good effect.I even have trouble seeing the object under the cap at times.Any good idea's would be appreciated.

The effect is the important thing, how you achieve it is not.......

Park,
Could not find the thread, but I guess I am not the only one who fail to see what the hype was all about with this effect...Does anyone perform it ?

I do perform the effect, and with the right amount of practice, it can be a reputation maker. I personally do Bob Kohler's routine from the book, and it is a showstopper. All I can say is practice, practice, practice!! Good Luck!!

Park,
I did find the thread and see what you mean, there was actually a few who liked it. I agreed with the majority that the way it was advertised it was hot, but very disappointed after buying it..

Greets,

I recieved this tricks about a year ago, however I would not recommend it. It is hard to do because of light in room.

If there is other tricks with this effect that doesn't require this kind of light please let me know.

take care,

Dr madhusudan

I was also a little dissapointed and when a girlfriend looked at the caps for about thirty seconds she figured it. I haven't heard anything about it recently. I'm sure Bob does it justice though.

Let's not deceive buyers now. This is not about practice, practice, practice. There really is not much practice involved. This method simply isn't reliable enough. It would be like taking your deck of cards to a venue to do tricks and realizing your cards are all glued together. This is NOT about practice. It is about how this IS NOT A RELIABLE METHOD.

BUYER BEWARE!

Nobody ever started a thread about the worst trick of the century, but if there was, I would pick killer red caps.

I smoked a lot of people with this effect. Bob Kohler doesn't release rubbish.

There is a lot worse than this. And more every day.

I'm glad it is working for you, but people need to know that if the lighting isn't right, the trick simply won't work.

The right performer can entertain with cow dung. It doesn't mean anyone can.
