I don't know whether this is the proper forum for this question or the Good, Bad, Garbage. Nevertheless:

Is anyone familiar with this Ted Lesley item? I'd like to get feedback on how worthwhile or effective it is. All comments appreciated.

Thank you.

Gianni

I'm curious myself. As I recall, it is a high price item.

It's an excellent item, but not even remotely for the merely curious. As such, it is priced appropriately. Personally I think it's terrific.

If I'm not mistaken I think he tips it in his book "Paramiracles".

It is a very good item IF you will use it. It is not for someone curious about learning the secret. I use it regularly when doing small private gatherings where I am going to do a Q & A style routine. It is a very useful tool for that and is very effective in close-quarters as opposed to other methods of gathering information. (No pre-show, you get the information directly infront of your audience).

One last point to E-Leoni, Ted does not give the method in Paramiracles.

A clever idea. I got it years back but never used it, though the principle is sound. I thought it was overpriced, but that was probably to keep it more exclusive.

Paul Daniels once used it on TV in the UK.
I will use it one day, simply to get my money's worth

I use it in every show

I use it for the routine Berlin Bears. It is a very good principle and I agree with all those who said that it is not for the merely curious.

It's a beautiful principle, and has the wonderful merit of being 100% practical. Once you have thoroughly understood how it works, the possibilities are limitless. Fairly priced? Well, that's Ted's business decision and his alone. Effective? 100%. Worthwhile? Well, if you want to be able to read minds for the rest of your life, using one of the most diabolically ingenious ruses ever devised, I don't see why not. My one and only caveat would be that it IS possible to reach similar ends using less expensive routes, but that's another story.

It's a brilliant idea and for the experienced performer, very practical. I would doubt its for beginners. I've said before the effects you use over and over are cheap. The ones that go in "that" drawer are expensive regardless of price.
On the other hand, I don't agree that price keeps it out of the hands of bumblers. Very often they are the ones with the most money

Hey Paul, why didn´t you use it when you bought it?
