If you pre-order you are still getting it before anyone else, no matter how long its delayed.
Maybe some people on this forum should actually step out in to the real world, and they might realise that delays do happen. All it takes is for one small thing to happen and a whole prject can be put back a week. Im getting so fed up with all the children on here moaning about it. If he hasn't sent out a email out why not email him instead of coming on here. Get a life and deal with it! Darius |

I am not so concerned about the delay but about the availability of replacement Gaffs which are obviously in short supply right now due to USPC policy. Although the Gaff is not destroyed in the performance we all know how long a playing card will last before it becomes bent, frayed, etc. Because of this I have generally only used Gaffs that could be replaced a deck at a time. For instance the Ellusionist Gaff deck seemed like a poor value to me. If your favorite gaff was destroyed it could not be replaced individually. I have a small stockpile of various cards but doubt I will ever have the time to construct my own and hope they become available again soon.

Dear Richard,
I'm in absolutely no hurry whatsoever & trust you 99% (just keeping that real). If you need to delay my pre-order for whatever reason...so be it. And if you would like to bump my pre-order to the back of the line so as to stop some of the others from freaking out...have at it. Get to my pre-order whenever. Hope all continues as re-planned. peace, charlie |

So please...stop blowing it out of proportion. Simple suggestions, concerns and well...disappointment. There were different ways this delay could have been handled regardless of the fact "Stuff happens". It is not so much what you cannot do, but what you can do. Everyone understands obsticals...it is how the seller handles them that will impress you as a customer.... or not. So far...as great of a magician as Sanders may be, no matter how much people describe him as a stand up guy...I can say service and communication at this point is less than impressive on the retail side. Just my thoughts. Take them as you may. |

Here's the full email from Richard Sanders and it's great news!
Hi Guys, As promised here is the FINAL UPDATE regarding Identity. I just received the final DVDs...in my own hands...earlier today!!!!!!! So, Identity finally ships tomorrow (June 17)...yaaa!!!! Sorry for all the delays. I wish I could have controlled all of this craziness but this was out of my hands as the Bicycle Playing Card Company has been very difficult to deal with during this period. Through much persistence, I managed to use every resource I could muster up to get the necessary gimmicks to include with the effect. If you have ever purchased from me before, you know that I always stand by my deadlines regarding releases but due to the unforeseen circumstances regarding the gimmicks for Identity, everything was delayed. Do not expect this type behavior with other Sanders FX products. Thank you again for your patience and your support...you rock!!!!! Your DVD will be mailed out tomorrow. Again, I thank you so much for your patience, your support and your business. Best Regards, Richard Sanders Sanders FX Unbelievable Magic

Hello guys,
First, thanks for all the fantastic support here on the Café!!! I have been working very hard to get Identity out to you in a timely manner but again, as mentioned numerous times here on the Café, it has been an absolute nightmare trying to get the necessary gimmicked cards for the effect. By every means possible and using every resource that I could muster up, I managed to get my hands on the cards...and trust me this was no easy feat! I have maintained close contact with all my subscribers, keeping them abreast of all the issues throughout the experience. I peeked in at the Café when I could, in order to see what information was available to you and to make sure that you were also well informed as to the situation at hand. I personally want to thank all the people here on the Café that have so kindly made everyone aware of the situation as best they could...you guys rock!!! I sincerely appreciate all your help. So, the FINAL WORD is this: Identity finally arrived today!!!!!!!!!! It will be shipped out tomorrow (June 17th). Check your magic shops in a week or so for availability. If you pre-ordered from Sanders FX you will have already received word on expected dates of delivery via email. I hope you enjoy the product, there is a ton of information crammed onto the DVD so be sure to take it all in. Thank you again for your support here on the Café!!!!! Best Regards, Richard Sanders |

I have received multiple e-mails from Richard concerning the delay with Identity. It seems that you may be the only one who didn't. And besides, Its only two weeks late. Its a good thing that we still don't live in the days of "Please allow 6-8 weeks for delivery". You would have hung yourself after the first month. Richard, Please push my name back on the list so that you can get the DVD's out to the impatient little kids. Some people need to get a grip. V.

Richard, thanks for the update. If you are able and willing to comment, do you have any insight from the USPCC as to the future availability of replacement Gaffs? Do you think this a temporary glitch or a long term problem? I realize that one is not destroyed with each performance but cards are cards and I assume we get one (or a few) with the package. Thanks for any insight.

Okay, seriously, I am not asking this to be a jerk, but what do people do with their gaffs that give them such short shelf lives? I have literally been using the same gaffed card for my effect Cagey for over four years. Okay, so the edges might be a little brown but it's barely noticeable. I keep it in a wallet when I'm not using it. I have used it in all sorts of performing environments, it's even gotten slightly wet a few times. But once it dries, it's totally fine.
I don't know. I've never really had to replace a gaff. I curious as to how other people's stuff gets worn out. is it a storage thing? A climate thing? I mean, if a card gets warped because of heat, it's easy enough to stick it in a book overnight. Just curious. BTW, I am VERY excited to check out this effect!

Since I have been pretty vocal about the replacement cards and since I have a whole bunch of Cameron's DVDs and am a fan I am happy to have the opportunity to answer. Mostly I lose them, I throw them out by accident, they get sweaty from my hands or my pockets, I forgot where I put them, I put them in with my Skinner Monte cards and then can't find them again. I don't know where my "Stickman" set is. A careful, organized person could certainly keep their cards in good condition. I am an amateur and probably more careless with inexpensive props then a professional. I have spare "Extreme Burn" gimmicks, plenty of thumb tips, UV nightshade shims, etc. OK, I'm a grown man but I'm watching "Never Back Down" on cable the other night and who shows up as an ER Doc?

Sweaty hands! Now, that makes sense. Didn't even think about it. Yes, that would shorten the life of a frequently used card a bit.

I'm being infantile? Compared with the guy who freaks out over not getting his new toy NOW, NOW, NOW!! Give me a break man.
It seems that your only purpose in starting "Your" thread was to give yourself something to do. As good a place as any to throw a tantrum I guess. And on the flip side... Richard does NOT work in distribution. He is a magician. V. P.S. I take it the level of education needed for "Distribution" is not that high. You Know... Seeing as how you can't even spell the word correctly. P.P.S. Has it occurred to you that you seem to be the only one here with any sort of problem? What does that say about you? I wonder if you know.
