Don't go by the demo vid. It’s a case of BAD performance & camera angle. Since 'Scraper' is being sold by Hocus Pocus, it ought to be really really GOOD.

Anybody bought this? Looking forward to a HONEST review.

The creator may please comment.

Thanks!




P.S. To the creator: CONGRATULATIONS and thank you for releasing this GEM without any hype & pre-orders! It's on my want list, but shall wait for a review. I liked the appearing tiny ball of wax. Wow!!!

Still cant find some porker cards on eBay for sale at the moment...i bet their oily though...sigh..

You are joking....I hope. Oh, sorry forgot...Hocus Pocus never sells bad tricks...until now that is.

Here is the link to the product page on penguin just so everyone who happens along this thread can know whats going on.
In the description there is an introdution section that is I guess from the DVD.
The second paragraph down he says "My brain went blank again that day".
I don't think he ever fully recovered this time.

You know...What I can't belive is that the dealers looked at this and said "Heck yeah..We'll sell it".
I know that they wan't to offer new stuff and make money, But man. I mean..Come on.

P.S. Its a great deal though....It even comes with the gaff!!!

I have a question about this CTW. Any clothing restrictions?

Do I have to do this wearing socks? Just wondering since it uses "porker" cards.

Hello,

The magic dealer is the first customer in the long line of retail. We, like the retail consumer, purchase many items blind with no more than a mere description to go on by the manufacturer. We go in good faith and gamble at times, hoping that the product lives up to what is promised. Had I been privvy to the online demo currently being offered for Scraper prior to ordering, I can assure you that I would have steered clear of this one. After receiving the product and reviewing what was supplied, we immediately removed it from our web site and product line. Having said that, Hocus Pocus does not and will not continue to sell this product. My personal suggestion is that NO ONE support this product.

Best regards
Paul Gross
Owner
Hocus Pocus

There it is once again, Paul and the boys at Hocus Pocus just rock. If the trick is really a Porker they will send it back to the pig farm;) Honest communication and updates is what I like about HP. Well no need to answer my sock question I will pass on this Porker.

OK Great, Paul.
Thanks and bless you for looking out for the magic community.

Nice one, it's good to see that the guys/gals at hocus-pocus won't just sell any garbage that comes there way.

Oooooopss...me bad!

Glad Hocus Pocus got rid of this one (couldn't have been because of this thread? LOL!)

You mean creeater lol

Is it called scraper because you will need a scraper to get the wax off the window?

Ok one more then I will try and stop. Were any pigs harmed in the making of this demo?

So true! I agree.

Oh boy PETA is going to looking at this demo.

So, did anyone actually buy this?

I don't think so, we don't have them porkers to work with...

Its not the worst idea I have ever seen, but the executioon of it was... uhmmm... It needed more work is all I can say!

I can't believe they are trying to sell this, especially with a laughable demo... mostly with bad grammar.

"No need sleight hand"

"The card have sign by spectator"

:D
